Neo2.1 Early Access: Export to PDF fails with any text

Hello, I'd just like to report a problem I've noticed with the NeoOffice 2.1 Early Access build (PPC) that I downloaded yesterday (2/24/07). Whenever I try to export a document to PDF, if it has any text in it at all, the document will be blank. (Nothing, nada, zilch.) However, if I export a document with no text (for example, a Drawing with just an oval or something similar) the PDF will be produced.

I am on an iBook G4, 10.4.8. I've tried this with PostScript Type 1, TrueType, PC TrueType (.ttf), and OpenType PS fonts. None of them work.

Any ideas? This is a pretty nasty surprise, given that NeoOffice has worked so well for me in the past.

Works for me just fine. Can you file a bug in Bugzilla and, after you create the bug, attach a sample NeoOffice document that we can use to reproduce the bug and we will take a close look at it.

I'm experincing the same problem , but it seems related with opening the pdf in Acrobat Reader, since in Preview is perfectly visible.
I filed a bug (2187), but don't know if it can be claimed as bug...

Although closed as a duplicate, bug 2188 has samples to test and illustrate the problem

Both PPC and Intel.
Exported pdf files can't be opened with acrobat.
They can be opened with Preview.
English text in Preview looks fine. Hebrew text becomes gibberish.

I tried the Mac Intel patch. It works fine for both english and hebrew text.
