            Bug ID: 107812
           Summary: LibreOffice Draw uses HelveticaOblique as font family
                    instead of Helvetica when PDF is opened
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.2.5.1 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Draw
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: john.serock at gmail.com

Description:
When LibreOffice Draw opens a PDF document having text with the
Helvetica-Oblique or Helvetica-BoldOblique fonts, the font family chosen is
HelveticaOblique rather than Helvetica and the style chosen is Regular rather
than Italic or Bold Italic. Consequently, text in the Draw document that should
be formatted as Italic or Bold Italic is not.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open with LibreOffice Draw a PDF document that uses the Helvetica-Oblique
font.
2. Select some text characters in the Draw document that should be formatted
using the Helvetica-Oblique font.
3. Go to Format > Character... to see the font family and style of the selected
text.

Actual Results:  
When characters in the Helvetica-Oblique font are selected, the font family is
shown as HelveticaOblique and the style is shown as Regular.

When characters in the Helvetica-BoldOblique font are selected, the font family
is shown as HelveticaOblique and the style is shown as Bold.

Expected Results:
When characters in the Helvetica-Oblique font are selected, the font family
should be shown as Helvetica and the style shown as Italic.

When characters in the Helvetica-BoldOblique font are selected, the font family
should be shown as Helvetica and the style shown as Bold Italic.


Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
The issue was first observed on openSUSE 42.2 Linux.
The same issue occurs in LibreOffice 5.3.3.2 (x64) on Windows 10.
