I did install OOo3 from this location:
http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main

I did install openoffice.org-kde as well. Then the fixes as described in
this thread.
The PDF export did work prior the ...6 update. Now it doesn't.

So what do you mean with the Sun OOo3... ? If you mean the setup from
their homepage, then I can say that I have tried them prior following
the suggestions in this thread. I was not able to make them work.
