--- Comment #4 from Justin L <[email protected]> --- Created attachment 200840 --> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=200840&action=edit 166503_import-compare.zip: overlay where RED=this patch, BLUE=before patch, GRAYSCALE=Word2010 While creating the patch, the DOCX overlays showed improvement relative to my "authoritative" Word 2019 PDFs. However, many of the DOC PDFs suggested that it got worse. But there were lots of clues that likely that Word 2019's PDFs just captured a state where the layout was still in motion. So I interactively used Word 2010/XP (which likely better matches the font versions available to me on Linux anyway) to re-create the "authoritative" PDFs. Since it was interactive, the layout had finalized before these PDFs were created, and then I could see the improvement I expected. (I could see huge differences between the two "authoritative" PDFs.) Because the results take up so many megabytes, I redid them with a very low 40 dpi resolution to attach here. The overall trend is that current state (RED) is now overlaid by the grayscale, while the previous state (BLUE) is offset higher on the page. So this is good confirmation that my patch is correct. My main purpose in documenting this is to show that I did do fairly exhaustive testing. Plus, it helps to demonstrate the limitation of doing PDF comparisons. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
