I tried it 2 years ago with EPS files in OpenOffice. LibreOffice (Writer, Draw, Impress) handles vector images very well internally and stores them correctly in ODF. But the "Export to PDF" function generates bitmaps - often in high resolution, so that it's not easy to recognize as a bitmap. The only workaround I found at the time was printing the document to a Postscript file and converting that to PDF. Which means: OOo used EPS vector graphics in the printing code (with the "generic postscript" driver, for example), but not in the PDF export code. (Printing the EPS was fairly easy, because it was just embedded in the Postscript; OOo couldn't handle SVG the same way, however.) This workaround won't work any longer as LO has switched to PDF for print job output. LibreOffice still renders SVG and EPS vector graphics as bitmaps in PDF exports. Apache OpenOffice 3.4.1 has added improved SVG support: SVG is exported as vector graphics now (while EPS graphics are dropped completely). I am attaching a test kit. Changed the summary line because the bug report only mentions SVG _export_ (not import). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
