Hello Michael, or anyone else affected,
Accepted libreoffice into precise-proposed. The package will build now
and be available at
http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/1:3.5.7-0ubuntu4 in a
few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.
If this package fixes the bug for you, please change the bug tag from
verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not, change the
tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing
will help us make a better decision.

Bug description:
[Impact]
* bold characters blurs horizontally if the font does not have a bold typeface. This makes characters less readable.
See. https://launchpadlibrarian.net/49398403/Screenshot-OpenOffice.org%203.2-PresentationModeFuzzyFont.png
* There is a workaround, which is turning off hardware acceleration. But it makes animations and transitions quite slow.
[Test Case]
1. type some text and make it as bold in Impress editing mode.
2. apply font which does not have a bold typeface to the text.
e.g. "Takao PGothic" font in fonts-takao-pgothic package.
3. press F5(presentation)
4. the text blurs horizontally. And the look of the font differs from editing mode.
See. https://launchpadlibrarian.net/49398403/Screenshot-OpenOffice.org%203.2-PresentationModeFuzzyFont.png
5. update to -proposed package
6. the text does not blurs horizontally. And the look of the font is nearly the same as editing mode.
See. https://launchpadlibrarian.net/49398355/Screenshot-OpenOffice.org%203.0-PresentationMode.png
[Regression Potential]
low.
The rendering way of this part was far from good. This fix is not a perfect solution, but it will improve it.

3) What is expected to happen is when one opens the following at the
Terminal:
cd ~/Desktop && wget
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/585910/+attachment/1405216/+files/BoldTechnicalFontTest.zip
&& file-roller -h BoldTechnicalFontTest.zip && cd
BoldTechnicalFontTest/.fonts && sudo mv TECHNICN.TTF /usr/share/fonts
&& sudo fc-cache -f -v && loimpress -nologo
~/Desktop/BoldTechnicalFontTest/Desktop/BoldTechnicalFontTest.odp
Click F5 the font is not fuzzy.
4) What happened instead is the font is fuzzy.
First reproduced in LO Maverick 1:3.3.1-1ubuntu3~maverick1, and
reproduced in Natty.
WORKAROUND: click Tools -> Options -> LibreOffice -> View -> uncheck
Use hardware acceleration checkbox -> OK button -> F5
