            Bug ID: 141751
           Summary: QR-Codes are blurry after saving to .xls
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.4.2 release
          Hardware: x86 (IA32)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: rienesl at hotmail.com

Description:
Used the function Insert -> Object -> QR-Code. Saved the file as .xls. Reopened
the file and got a completely blurry image of the QR-code. Looks like it gets
converted to PNG while saving, and either either something goes horrible wrong
when it gets converted from vector based to pixel based or the PNG compression
messes up.
This does not happen when saving to .ods. However, the object properties get
lost and the QR-Code is handled as an ordinary, vector based image

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a new sheet in calc
2. create a random content QR-Code (Insert -> Object -> QR-Code)
3. save the file as .xls
4. reopen the file

Actual Results:
QR-Code gets converted to a blurry png

Expected Results:
Perfect result: QR-Code stays a vector based object with all its properties (I
assume the .xls file format does not allow that, but for .ods I would expect
that)
Good result: QR-Code stays a vector based image (again I am not sure if the
.xls file format allows that, but for .ods I would expect that)
Acceptable result: QR-Code gets converted in a loss less pixel based image


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
