--- Comment #5 from Roman Eisele <bugs at eikota.de> 2012-07-10 17:25:01 UTC ---
(1) Bad news first: REPRODUCIBLE also on MacOS X 10.6.8 (Intel) German UI with
LibreOffice 3.5.4.2 (Build-ID: 165a79a-7059095-e13bb37-fef39a4-9503d1), German
langpack installed.

I can neither open the reporter's sample pfd file nor my own sample (I create a
new Writer document with default settings, just type "Hello world!", save it as
.odt file, then export it as .pdf file with embedded .odt data, and then try to
open the .pdf file again with LibreOffice). Instead of getting the .odt data
from the .pdf file, LibreOffice tries to import the .pdf as a text file (it
asks me for encoding and default font and then shows some strange dump
beginning with

%PDF-1.4
%äüöß
2 0 obj
<</Length 3 0 R/Filter/FlateDecode>>
...

So the bug is reproducible on Ubuntu and on MacOS X, but not on Windows.


(2) Good news: Reading embedded .odt data from a .pdf file really WORKS with
* LibreOffice 3.6.0.0.beta2 (Build ID: f010139)
* LibreOffice 3.6.0.0.beta3 (Build ID: 3e2b862),
both again on MacOS X 10.6.8 (Intel). So this bug has been fixed in between for
LibreOffice 3.6. This may allow us to close this bug again as
RESOLVED/WORKSFORME ...


@José Antonio Meira da Rocha:

Could you please download the current beta of LibreOffice 3.6 from
http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/
and try if the problem is fixed on Ubuntu, too? This would be very helpful,
thank you very much!
