            Bug ID: 124790
           Summary: Background image in printed address labels not visible
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 4.4.0.3 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: thomas at hax.se

Description:
I have been using OpenOffice on Mac OS X to print address labels with a jpeg
background but would like to use LibreOffice instead due to issues with OO.

While the old document opens OK in LO, the background of the text layer does
not appear to be transparent and thus the background image is not visible.

I just installed LO 6.2.2 for windows (win 10) and now I can at least see the
background image and field names in the document, but when I print to a pdf the
image is gone.

I've also upgraded to pre-release 6.2.3.1, but it behaves the same.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download and unpack http://hax.se/testkort.zip
2. Open the Testkort.odt document in Writer
3. Register the Testadresser.odb database (testadresser.ods is the source)
4. Print the document to a pdf file
5. Open the resulting pdf file


Actual Results:
Address labels with only the names, no background image

Expected Results:
Address labels with both background image and names similar to the result from
the OpenOffice result provided in the file test2.pdf


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
I suspect the issue is that the top text layer is not transparent

Version: 6.2.3.1 (x64)
Build ID: 9ba025bafb03b962c34687cf87806cc03a3a7436
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; VCL: win; 
Locale: sv-SE (en_SE); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

Users on the Swedish LO mailing have verified my results.

I have been trying different versions and versions from 3.3.0.4 up to 4.3.7.2
works ok, but as of 4.4.0.3 it no longer works.
