            Bug ID: 138562
           Summary: Writer: Export pdf comments gives different results
                    depending on the pdf viewer used
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.2.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: mbox.789 at posteo.org

Description:
Exporting a Writer document enhanced with comments per "Export as PDF" gives
different results depending on the pdf viewer used. Some show only the comment
symbol overlapping the actual text, while others lack a symbol but show the
comment when hovering over the comment location or double clicking at the
comment location.

Steps to Reproduce:
1) New Writer document
2) Write some text
3) Mark word(s)
4) Open context menu > Insert Comment > Add some text
5) Save document
6) File > Export As ... > Export as PDF (Options see attachment)


Actual Results:
A pdf file is created with comments inconsistently treated by different pdf
viewers.

Evince
------
- The comment symbol is placed directly at the comment location overlapping the
actual text
+ A pop-up comment opens when hovering over the symbol
+ A comment window opens when double clicking on the comment symbol

Master PDF Editor
-----------------
- There is no comment symbol shown
+ A pop-up comment opens when hovering over the comment location
- No comment window opens when double clicking at the comment location


Okular
------
- The comment symbol is placed directly at the comment location overlapping the
actual text
- No pop-up comment opens when hovering over the symbol
- No comment window opens when double clicking on the comment symbol


Xreader
-------
- The comment symbol is placed directly at the comment location overlapping the
actual text
- No pop-up comment opens when hovering over the symbol
- No comment window opens when double clicking on the comment symbol


I will add some screenshots of these results in a follow-up comment.

Expected Results:
1) The comment symbol should be placed at the left or right of the marked text
not overlapping the text
2) A pop-up comment should opens when hovering over the symbol
3) A comment window should open when double clicking on the comment symbol


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes
