Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 79355
Bitmap inside Drawing OLE does not export to pdf
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:40:43 UTC
This is actually a very simple bug to replicate. At least, I have been able to replicate it consistently. Open a new writer document. Insert a new drawing OLE. Draw a filled shape. Change the fill to a bitmap. Export the document as a pdf. Part or all of the bitmap will not be seen within the pdf.

As I have looked at this a bit further, I realized that the shapes that I was trying this were somewhat on the small side and generally rectangular. As I tried to replicate the issue with larger shapes or ovaloid shapes, I was able to gain a glimpse of what seems to be happening. The bitmap is being shifted down and to the right, but it isn't being displayed beyond the bottom or right orthagonal edge. I didn't even see the bitmap before because the shapes were to small to notice a shift.
Reassigned to HI.
confirmed and occurs also in calc.
pl->sj: Is this a problem of the pdf export filter itself or rather the framework OLE implementation ? Who draws the OLE objects in PDF export ?

Probably the same issue, which is why I do not file a separate issue for the moment, and very easy to reproduce: * In a Writer doc, draw a circle using the Drawing toolbar * Right-click circle - Area: Fill: bitmap, choose a bitmap pattern. * export to PDF. The fill of the object is not exported to the PDF.
