Bug ID: 127969
Summary: new Redact function produces merely readable text
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.3.2.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
The redact feature was introduced in Libreoffice 6.3
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/6.3#New_Feature:_Redaction
"As a result, you will have a pixellized version of the redacted document in
PDF. There will be no selectable text in it, and the redacted content will be
non-existent."
Yes, and the pixelisation makes the text almost unreadble - coarse, uneven
spacing, ugly.
If a complete conversion to a bitmap is neccessary (what I doubt) there should
be the option to choose the dpi.
Technically it should be possible to copy text not marked as 'redacted' into
the export document - as text, not bitmap.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Tools > Redact
2. Redacted export
3. Open PDF in any viewer
Actual Results:
ugly text
Expected Results:
clear text
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
