--- Comment #8 from Dave Gilbert <[email protected]> --- Right, so there's a few things going on a) Stuart: I agree with Eyal - please stop with that! Something gentler along the lines of 'Libreoffices PDF editing is still a bit limited, you might like to try the Pdfium based image insert flow, but thanks for reporting it.' would be nicer! b) The actual clipping I fixed a lot of back in ~August - see b416c5b8e32632a63e1e791c34896e17d89f7982 c) The 1st problem is that the input filter doesn't implement any shaded fills; so it falls back to Poppler's internal code which chops it up into thin poloygons. c1) These appears to be PDF 'axial fill's - i.e. what we would call a gradient fill - that's actually fixable, I just haven't implemented it yet; I've also not checked if all PDF axial fills are representable in LO d) There's something else going on - I think somewhere in the rendering stack but I'm not sure where; I don't understand why it looks worse as you zoom in; sure I expect to see the individual polygons - so I expect to see jaggyness - but when you zoom in you see the colour of each polygon being non-uniform (like dark-light) which makes the jaggies look even worse. So I think this is a valid bug and is 'implement axial fills' for (c) - if you know anyone with an idea about what's going on in the jaggyness who can point to (d) that would be good. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
