Title:
  [Upstream] Text not black in LibreOffice

Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
  Fix Released
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “libreoffice” source package in Precise:
  Fix Committed
Status in “libreoffice” source package in Quantal:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: light-themes

  When using Ambiance theme the body text in Ooo Writer is not black but
  gray. This is quite uncomfortable when writing and thus renders the
  theme in effect unusable. See attached png.

  [Impact]

   * Auto-colored text is illegible on dark background in LibreOffice.
   * Use "High Contrast" theme, unacceptable to customer.
   * User has to mnaually change the color from "automatic" to white.
   * This is affecting a flagship customer.

  [Test Case]

   * In Libreoffice Impress the text with the color "automatic" is hard
  to read if the background color is set to black (example
  file/screenshot attached).

  [Regression Potential]

   * This patch is a backport form upstream, and has been tested. I do
  not see any possible regression potential here.

  [Workaround]
  Go to Tools -> Options... -> LibreOffice -> Appearance -> Font Color and change the color from Automatic to Black.
