--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> ---
LibreOffice is *not* a PDF viewer. Rather it will parse the content of a
published PDF and attempt to convert each element within the PDF into a
corresponding ODF draw object using poppler and cairo project libraries.

If you need to present with Impress, but want the exact layout you had with
PDF, you have to "insert" each page the PDF as a high resolution image to each
slide of the Impress presentation. The insert uses a different filter pdfium
based (what the Chrome browser uses) and should render the LaTex marked slide.

I just verified that pg8 of the PDF, extracted with the free PDFtk utility [1],
with the rendered LaTex formulas are correctly parsed when "inserted as image".

You'll want to set a LibreOffice environment variable to your liking, e.g.

PDFIMPORT_RESOLUTION_DPI = 300

Then insert each page from your PDF from main menu Insert -> Image.

Or if all the pages except page 8 are fine, you could import it to start with
and then replace the slide with bad LaTex rendering.
