Seems to sync with the upstream bug
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=139731 and I can confirm
reproducing this.

Umbrella OOo related GPDF bug tracker (upstream) is:

Upstream bug fixed. Verified on Rawhide.

Comment 4 Marco Pesenti Gritti 2004-10-13 15:54:34 UTC
We should consider releasing an FC2 update of 2.8.0-2 for this. It's a
new major release, so that may be a problem though.
