David,
LibreOffice allows graphics to have placeholders in case rendering such
takes a lot of time when scrolling. Maybe yours are turned off. Try
Tools -> Options -> LibreOffice Writer -> View
Under "Display", there should be a checkbox titled "Graphics and
objects". Make sure this is checked.
Hope this helps.

When I open the PDF file and try to export it, all I see are graphics
formats (e.g., .bpm, .jpeg, .wfm etc.). I've tried several and they are
importable into my document (as a picture), but it seems that only one
page was exported, which is more complicated than copying and pasting
from each page of the draw object.
In the mean time, I've discovered a free conversion site,
www.zamzar.com, and they were able to convert the PDF files to odt (with
the images as bitmaps. Now here's another strange thing: I can use LO
to open the converted file and the document looks as I expect; however,
when I insert the file (insert->file) into my larger document, only the
text is picked up, leaving blank spaces where the images should go.
This sounds like a bug, but perhaps there is some setting that controls
this. One other thing: when I open the single/converted pdf->odt
document, the navigator shows draw objects and graphics objects as 0.

I'm currently working on a large project that requires me to import many
documents from my colleagues, some in word or PDF formats, into a single
file. Libreoffice doesn't work if I try Insert->File... on a PDF file
(I get an error popup saying Error rereading the file).
I can open the PDF file (in draw) and cut and paste each PDF page into
the document, but that is painful.
Is there a way to make File->Insert work, perhaps via a macro?
it can surly been automated, import the PDF in draw and then export the
elements to a writerdoc, you will find a lot of code in the "Gimmicks"
library (gettexts>>getdrawstrings)
hope it helps

If not,
consider this a feature request.
