Description Heinrichmeyer 2011-08-25 04:22:47 UTC
Printed out formulas did not look as pretty as text when printed out at least in linux with libreoffice 3.3.3 from ubuntu natty. They looked fuzzy on a black/white printer as they where not printed in black but in the gui color automatically set for text (inherited from the gnome desktop theme).

Somehow the default printed formula color, not printed text color seems to be taken from the gui theme. Default value was "automatic", a kind of dark grey (maybe an ubuntu problem?).

Workaround: select explicitly black for text color in in presentation (Schrift Darstellung in german) dialog. After this, new formulas where created in black and printed fine on a black and white laser printer as i want.

I find it at least puzzling that object color (model) is affectable by desktop theme (presentation/view). As formulas need smaller fonts, unwanted dithering is more likely to disturb the printout on black and white printers.

[This is an automated message.]
This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it
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.
Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at:
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugHunting_Session_3.5.0.-1
