            Bug ID: 141185
           Summary: PNG images in Writer documents have poor appearance.
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.1.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer

Description:
I create documents in LibreOffice Writer that include images and text. I use
the PNG format for the images. PNG images appeared with good quality in Writer
7.0, but those same images appear blocky/fuzzy in Writer 7.1.1.2.  Text within
the images appears especially blocky. I've replaced some of the images with the
PDF format and those images accurately display. 

The issue is present on both a laptop and desktop computer running Linux Ubuntu
20.04 or 20.10. I have not checked if the issue occurs on a Windows 10 laptop.  

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create an image with text added to it and save it in the SVG format.Export
the SVG file to the PNG format.
2.Add a picture in Writer 7.1.1.2 and select the PNG file.
3.You should see that the text in the PNG image is of reduced quality.  

Actual Results:
When I perform the steps noted above, I get lesser quality images that are
especially noticeable when viewing the text. 

Expected Results:
In all previous versions of Writer, the images retained their original quality
and text within the image appear smooth and accurate. 


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
If you'd like screenshots of the issue I can send two screenshots: one which
shows the original image quality and a second which shows the reduced quality
as it appears in Writer.
