Not just desktop publishing, but professional publishing too.  Most publishers
of journals and books request that diagrams and other illustrations be
submitted as separate files.  All such publishers I have worked with accept PDF
files for vector artwork, but none of them accept OpenDocument files, and many
of them don't accept any of the vector formats produced via LibreOffice's
File->Export command.
