            Bug ID: 143519
           Summary: copy from draw into writer turns text into an image?
                    unusable anywhere else
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Draw
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Description:
i did a simple experiment. i wrote a simple list in writer. saved the file.
then exported the file to pdf.
then opened pdf in draw.
tried to copy text into a new writer file or even calc file.
i expect "text" to get copied. instead it takes entire selection as some sort
of draw image or something. each text line is shown as its own text box and
that is very difficult to manage. i just updated to 7.1.5.2 but the version
doesnt seem to be there so i set to last version i was on. i will attach 3
docs. 
1. input lists file.
2. output of lists file to compare. the pdf file.
3. output odt file which contains text copy pasted from opened pdf file in
draw.

the input lists file and output odt file should match. it is not

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open input file list.odt in writer. confirm text is written as a list
without any formatting.
2. export file as pdf.
3. open file in draw.
4. try to copy the text in draw and paste into a new writer or a calc file.


Actual Results:
copied text is interpreted as some image or something else which invokes draw
settings instead of simple text copy

Expected Results:
simply the text should get copied instead of what is currently happening


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
