So I made a test pdf which had enlightening results. The import process appears to work for text, it is the images that fail to show. I work with construction plans in which the text is just part of a bigger image. I never had a reason to open a file with actual text in it and did not realize how specific the issue was. Test file is attached.
Is there any additional information that I can provide? ** Attachment added: "Test PDF with Text and Image" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1009663/+attachment/3179211/+files/Test%20PDF.pdf ** Summary changed: - pdf files opened with Draw are blank + pdf Files Import Without Images -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1009663 Title: pdf Files Import Without Images Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When opening pdf files using LO Draw with the libreoffice-pdfimport extension installed pdf files are blank. The number of pages shown and page size is correct but where the pdf image should be is a blank space with a bounding box. I am using Xubuntu 12.04 with LO 3.5.3.2 installed from the software center, though I tried LO 3.5.4 from the LO ppa with no success. This issue was also present for me using Ubuntu 11.10. At some point in the distant past this did work for me. Steps to reproduce: 1) Install pdf import: 'sudo apt-get install libreoffice-pdfimport' 2) Try open a pdf file with Draw. 3) Enjoy the blankness.
