screenshot of how it looks in adobe reader

When exporting to PDF using the font and example provided in http://code.google.com/p/openoffice-code128/ it adds an additional space after the first character. Since it's an barcode-font the space can't be there or the barcode can't be read.

It displays it correctly in LibreOffice Calc, but the exported pdf is invalid in both Adobe Reader and Google Chrome. 

Windows version: Windows 7 professional SP 1
LibreOffice version: LibO_3.3.2_Win_x86_install_multi.exe
Adobe Reader version: 10.0.1
Google Chrome version: 11.0.696.68

started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is
changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back
to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases.

Hi all, I don't understand what the issue is here.

bug description says "the exported pdf is invalid in both Adobe Reader and Google Chrome".

For me the " PDF result of export ODS file with code 128" does load fine in chromium, osx preview.app and acrobat.

So original problem is def. fixed and this bug is worksforme. If other bugs with the test file are remaining, please open a new bug and add exact reproduce steps.

Thanks.

Installed the code 128 font. Exported attachment 111579 [details] from Calc to PDF and can confirm that the gap is there.
