Very useful in trying to narrow it down to a test case. The document I was using before was using Bitstream Vera Sans, so I don't think it was a font problem. Here are some screenshots of what I'm seeing with a much simpler document using OOo's default font which on my system (FC2) is Bitstream Vera Serif (I don't know if that is some setting left over from some previous version of OOo or some previous distro), along with the PDF file itself: http://www.brierton.plus.com/OOo/ The error ggv gives when opening test.pdf is: There was an error while scaning the file: /home/darren/test.pdf DEBUG: no psname was provided. DEBUG: no psname was provided. What I have installed is: $ rpm -q gpdf xpdf ggv openoffice.org gpdf-0.131-2 xpdf-3.00-3 ggv-2.6.0-2 openoffice.org-1.1.1-4 Best, Darren -- ===================================================================== D.
