If LO can filter in a PDF, perform editing actions on it, and filter it out to a file, then it's effectively a PDF editor. If people use LO to edit PDFs then it's effectively a PDF editor. IIANM, inkscape probably does the same thing, i.e. it doesn't work on PDF object streams. I agree that it's not a proper editor, but you shouldn't deny an important use of LO Draw. I don't have statistics, but many people use it for this purpose. People on the RTL QA team rated this the most prominent outstanding LO RTL bug for a reason... But actually, that is not relevant to this bug in the narrow sense. That is to say, even if people only ever save LO draw files and just open PDFs, it's the same bug. About the rest of your comment - I understand. Of course the pdfium import filter is not the solution.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
