            Bug ID: 128583
           Summary: Can not paste Picture (Windows Metafile) but MS Word
                    can
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.3.2.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: ferry.toth at elsinga.info

Description:
Cadence Orcad Schematics copies data to the clipboard in Picture and in
Enhanced Metafile format (as well as some native formats). When pasting this
into MS Word 'paste as' shows Picture (Windows Metafile) as the only format and
paste into the document works fine. LibO 'paste as' shows GDI Metafile.
However, when pasting nothing happens (no picture is inserted into the
document).

However, after pasting into Word and saving as doc, the file can be opened by
LibO.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. You need either Cadence Orcad Schematics or install clipbrd.exe from a
Windows XP computer (or download from this web site
file:///home/ferry/https:%E2%81%84%E2%81%84www.urtech.ca%E2%81%842016%E2%81%8404%E2%81%84solved-where-is-the-clipboard-viewer-in-windows-10%E2%81%84)
2. Using clipbrd.exe open the orcad.CLP into your clip board
3. Paste into a Writer document

Actual Results:
Nothing is pasted

Expected Results:
Drawing is pasted. See attached Orcad.doc (created by WinWord) and Orcad.odt
(converted from Orcad.doc by LibO).

Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: No
