Created attachment 145827 [details] Writer source document used to generate the PDF, and generated PDF When importing a PDF file containing different page layouts, only one page layout id assumed when rendering the document. The attached file example contains 3 pages, as follows: - page 1: A4 portrait - page 2: A3 landscape - page 3: A4 portrait Sometimes it seems that if pages contain images (documents generated by scanners), the assumed page format is A4, and A3 pages are just truncated preserving only the left part of the A3 landscape page. Attached you will find also the Writer source document used to generate the PDF document imported in Impress for the test.

A workaround is doing more documents with different paper sizes. 4 paper sizes -> 4 draw docs or more in a global document
with the possible workaround of comment 5 a preview window with choice should be available the old way: all in one Draw document with one-page size the new way: all in one Global ODM-document with Draw sections in different page sizes

This is due to the current limitation as discussed in bug 49787. The different page size / orientation etc can only be imported correctly if the draw document allows them.

Maximum paper size of masterpiece in user mode is quadratic area 600 cm to 600 cm. So different sizes of papers should be possible. Work around is import of pdf by different draw files with their sizes. PDF can also divised before in different pdf their format.
