            Bug ID: 113441
           Summary: Inserted PDFs - loss of sharpness since LO 5.4
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.4.0.1 rc
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium

WRITER document with inserted PDFs

Hello,

if opening the attached file "BremsModul.odt" (BremsModul = BrakingModule for
"Märklin" model trains) using "WRITER LO 5.3.X" then everything is fine. If
opening the same file using "WRITER LO 5.4.X" then a loss of image sharpness is
quite clearly. All the inserted PDFs are created by using the "Export as PDF"
feature of CALC/DRAW.

Some more test results using "LO 5.3.6.1" and "LO 5.4.3.1":

Export as PDF: LO 5.3.6.1 -> sharp | LO 5.4.3.1 -> sharp
Print Preview: LO 5.3.6.1 -> sharp | LO 5.4.3.1 -> unsharp
Print: LO 5.3.6.1 -> sharp | LO 5.4.3.1 -> unsharp
Print (using "PDF24" as printer driver): LO 5.3.6.1 -> sharp | LO 5.4.3.1 ->
unsharp

Operating system: "Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit"

I hope the above mentioned behaviour of "LO 5.3.X" will be back soon in "LO
5.4.X" or newer, because it's very fine not to have to think about the PDF
source and being able in WRITER to resize/rescale up and down the inserted PDF
images without loss of sharpness.

Best regards
Hans-Werner

BTW: BremsModul = BrakingModule (for "Märklin" model trains)
