           Summary: SVG in Writer leads to huge and slow-rendering PDF
                    export

Libreoffice PDF export that demonstrates the increase in size and slow
performance

Dear all,

I try to promote within my workplace the use of free software including
LibreOffice.

I noticed that if I embed an SVG logos of 400 KiB in an otherwise empty ODT and
export this to a PDF, than the PDF has 13MB and many PDF readers (if not all)
suffer from huge performance issues in rendering the PDF. I have tried the
following PDF readers:

1. Okular (KDE Linux)
2. Acrobat Reader (Windows)
3. Firefox (Linux, I can literally see the individually steps of the logo
painting)


I would instead expect that the PDF is under 1MB and loads as fast as a PDF
file stemming from the Inkscape SVG to PDF export.

I assume that the SVG logo uses some features (like gradients) that the
LibreOffice export does not handle efficiently.
