Title:
  [Upstream] Calc can't print, export to PDF, or print preview

Status in LibreOffice:
  Confirmed
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  1) lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 12.10
  Release:	12.10

  2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-calc
  libreoffice-calc:
    Installed: 1:3.6.2~rc2-0ubuntu3
    Candidate: 1:3.6.2~rc2-0ubuntu3
    Version table:
   *** 1:3.6.2~rc2-0ubuntu3 0
          500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/main i386 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  3) What is expected to happen in Calc via a terminal:
  cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1066423/+attachment/3397788/+files/loprob.ods && localc --nologo loprob.ods

  Export to PDF, Print Preview, or print and it does so.

  4) What happens when you:

  + Export to PDF is one gets a pop up noting:
  LibreOffice 3.6
  Error saving the document loprob:
  Write Error.
  The file could not be written.

  + Page Preview it comes up with a blank gray background rather than a
  preview.

  Original Report Comments:
  + print Nothing was printed, but libreoffice displayed the string 'gtk printer' on the xterm console from which it was invoked, and left a directory and file '/tmp/luppt6wq.tmp/luppt6ws.tmp' behind. The .tmp file is an exact copy of the .ods spreadsheet with which LO was invoked.
  The CUPS printer manager and logs in /var/log/cups do not show a job corresponding to my attempt to print and I have no problem printing via other apps such as Firefox. I do not believe this is a CUPS issue.

  The behavior is highly sensitive to the contents of the spreadsheet. I
  have attached the offending document and it repeatably demonstrates
  the print/page preview problem described. However, if the final sheet
  ("Sheet10") of the document is deleted, the problem goes away and
  print/page preview function properly once again.
