Are you using 100% scaling (in Plasma settings)? Or are you using any other value?

Are you on KDE Neon?

Depending on your distribution, LibreOffice will open using the gtk3 backend by default, even on Plasma.

Please share the info on your Help - About LibreOffice to help us figure out this issue.

I have KDE Neon Dev edition on a test machine and LO is running fine using the kf5 backend. So:
1) Make sure the package libreoffice-kf5 is installed
2) Set the environment variable SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=kf5 before launching LibreOffice
