            Bug ID: 135638
           Summary: Accessibility of PDF export: some images are not
                    flagged by Figure tag while exporting docx into pdf
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2 all versions
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: martin.josefik at blackboard.com

Description:
Exported pdf should contain Figure tag for every image from docx. Unfortunately
there are images that are not marked by Figure tag.

The image is flagged by p tag.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the attached docx file.
2. Export as a Tagged PDF using File > Export as ... > Tagged PDF
3. Open the tagged PDF in a PDF explorer such as Adobe Acrobat. There are only
<P>
 tags.

Actual Results:
The figure from the source docx file is marked up by <P> tag instead of
<Figure> tag.

Expected Results:
The figure is marked up as a <Figure> tag


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
This is an accessibility concern. Users with screen readers are not able to
properly identify images in the tagged PDF export.
