PDF export defaults background page color
Hello,
Trying to export an .ODT file to .PDF.
I have the background colour for all pages set to black. When I export to PDF it reverts everything to white, and even inverts some of my text (white text is now black.)
Also, some of the link colours have reverted back to their defaults.
Any ideas of how I can solve this?
Thanks,
Chris

Black background is unusual for a Writer file.
Maybe Impress can do better.

I forgot to put on the end, that I checked the saved .pdf file and it
came out exactly the same as the .odt page, colours and everything,
including a web link. Didn't know about your suggested method. Hope this
is a bit clearer.

please check 'tools - options - openoffice writer - print'. 'page background' should be checked and 'print text in black' unchecked. these options apply to exporting as pdf as well as to printing on paper.

I created a simple text page with a black background and white text, red
text, green text, then exported as a .pdf file. The colours were not
changed. OO 4.1.0, Win 8.1. Does this help?

i cannot confirm this behaviour. could you please upload to some file hosting service a sample odt file demonstrating the issue? (if you post it on the list directly, there is a chance that it be filtered by the antispam engine.)
