Now that I think about it, I *have* occasionally seen weirdness in
.PDF exports within OO. Not for a while now, NONE since OO3.1
shipped.
Doesn't mean all the bugs in all the fonts are gone.
I do recall that for one project I set up CUPS-PDF at the OS level
(Ubuntu) and handled PDF conversion via a printer driver to solve the
glitch. You might consider the same thing, last ditch. Almost every
distro can easily do a PDF print driver, and you then use OO's
standard "print" command. The PDF conversion is then handled
completely outside of OO using totally different code.
