--- Comment #3 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Confirmed on Windows 10 Home 64-bit en-US with
Version: 6.0.5.2 (x64)
Build ID: 54c8cbb85f300ac59db32fe8a675ff7683cd5a16
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: GL; 
Locale: en-US (en_US); Calc: CL

LibreOffice is not an editor for PDF. And our import filters are not expected
to provide 100% fidelity when, during import, the elements of the PDF are
broken into drawing objects on the Draw canvas. All text is present, as are the
line elements and fill.

If fidelity to the source PDF is required, the PDF should be inserted as an
image into any of the LO modules, using a different project filter based on
pdfium. At present that filter will not support "break" of the PDF to its
component elements.

IMHO => WF
