--- Comment #26 from Christian Assig <chras...@gmail.com> ---
I could imagine that one of the two following approaches might help to solve
this problem:
a) Whenever a user adds an image to a presentation that does not contain pHYs,
let LibreOffice add pHYs automatically. I would suggest the current dpi setting
of the running OS. This way, the result (how the slides look) would still be
the same as before on the original computer. And it would fix the problem that
the slides look different after changing the dpi setting or when opening the
file on a different computer with different dpi settings. A drawback of this
approach would be that files created earlier (with images without pHYs) would
continue to be affected by this problem.
b) Do it like Apache OpenOffice. From what I have seen, current OpenOpffice
versions (4.1.2) seem to use 96 dpi as the default value if the file does not
include pHYs. Or does it use some kind of metadata stored elsewhere? This would
help me and the original bug reporter to get the expected results (the files
were created on computers with 96 dpi, and we have problems with computers set
to 120 dpi). Of course, there is a major drawback to this approach as well: All
users who created files with the OS set to 120 dpi will get distorted slides on
the same computer, only by upgrading LibreOffice, without touching their dpi
settings.

Any other ideas how this problem could be solved? Personally, I would prefer
approach a), as it solves the problem for files created with future versions
containing the fix, and it does not create problems with files created in the
past for users who only upgrade LibreOffice, but do not change their dpi
settings.
