Achim,

Just tested your document on karmic alpha 6 with the current official karmic OO.org package which is 1:3.1.1-2ubuntu1 (karmic)
I am on 64bit.

Firstly let me just be clear that if I download test.odt and export as pdf I get erroneous characters (please see attached file "testexport.pdf").

However because I have been messing around with mozplugger, the first time I tried it opened test.odt readonly and I had a perfect export of the pdf. This seems to be repeatable - if I change the permissions so that I do not have write permission before I open test.odt in OO I can export the pdf perfectly (see attached file "testexport_ro.pdf").

Please can you see if this happens for you too. Perhaps it was a fluke.
