If I edit the image in Gimp, Writer can process it. I don't have an original
image, it was provided in a document. The image extracted from my document
opens fine in Gwenview and Gimp and prints to PDF fine from there. I wondered
if the image handling problem leading to bloated PDFs is causing the issue I
see. I will open a new bug.
