Description ousia 2003-11-29 13:30:54 UTC 
Depending on the used font, the hyphen seems to be too close to the previous
letter. Gentium is the font used in the document attached.

Gentium can be downloaded at:

The hyphen is too close to the previous character with all fonts, but
with some fonts hyphen is closer than with others.

The PDF export issue has the same core reason as issue 17098 which is
fixed in CWS vcl7pp1r2 for the OOo 1.1.1 target (rounding errors of
about 0.05 points per glyph in PDF export). The problem shows up at
portion boundaries, e.g. in this case the english<->greek boundaries.

For printing I see that the generic printer is used, so a similar
rounding problem shows up. I suggest to use the T42 enabled version of
the printer and to set the device resolution from 300 to e.g. 600 (see
File->PrinterSettings->Properties->Device->Resolution).
