Re: [libreoffice-users] pdf file consists of 'F' after convert from doc on self built libreoffice-4.4.0.3

is libreoffice-fresh 4.4.1-2

It might help resolve your problem.

Not an Arch user myself so I don't understand the build process.

Did you run LibreOffice the normal way and export as pdf to see if it 
creates [].
