Hi, FYI: I've just created bug #179549 about bad character specing in PDFs created with OOo in SuSE Linux 10.0. I had just discovered that yesterday. I found a similar bug, but couldn't find out what the original reporter actually complained about, so I started a new one (where I hope the problem is very clear). I would assume that the problem is 70% the font quality, 20% the font rendering engine, and 10% likelihood OOo. Maybe the gurus can find out what the problem actually is. Regards, Ulrich
