On FC1, I just fired up the thre viewers you mentioned with a one page
document I generated on OpenOffice.org 1.1.0 -- installed from
tarball, not the FC RPM. With xpdf, I got this error message:
"Warning: Cannot convert string
"-*-times-medium-r-normal--16-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1" to type
FontStruct". Otherwise I had no problems. I opened up a much longer
document (created with OpenOffice.org 1.1.1 from tarball) with gpdf,
and had no problems. Perhaps you have an oddball font or a font
problem?
