--- Comment #9 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> --- (In reply to GJord from comment #8) > Tested on Windows 11, LibreOffice 25.8.2.2. > > Dragged a PDF into Writer and selected it. In the Properties sidebar the > object is labeled simply as “Image” or .png, not as a PDF, which matches the > observation. > > However, I noticed that saving and exporting to PDF preserves the selectable > text from the original PDF on my system. So some of the underlying pdf data > is retained. That is because only one page of the PDF is "rendered" onto the document canvas, but the source PDF (all pages) remain in the document archive available to support the export filter process that reuses the PDF page. But note that any scaling/rotation changes made to the image will simply remove the original PDF from the document (it is no longer relevant)--and only the transformed image (as a PNG) is used for the export or print. This is intentional and by design validity of layout vs. fidelity to source PDF. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
