Description: While opening a PDF file with some scatter plots, i realized that the shape of datapoints have changed Steps to Reproduce: 1. Creating a PDF file containing a scatter plot, so that the datapoints are solid (filled) circles. The code below generates the same file in R: ```R pdf(file="example.pdf") plot(iris[, 1:2], pch = 19) graphics.off ``` 2. I confirmed the plot by opening it in multiple PDF viewer (qpdfview and foxitreader) 3. Opened LibreOffice Draw program 4. from the "open" menu, opened the PDF file I just created Actual Results: The datapoints have turned into hollow cricles (have black border and white/transparent filling color) Expected Results: The datapoints should still be solid circles Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: These are the info I get from "About LibreOffice" window: Version: 6.2.0.3 Build ID: libreoffice-6.2.0.3-snap1 CPU threads: 8 OS: Linux 4.15 UI render: default VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8) UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded
Created attachment 149737 [details] What the file looks like (bottom) vs. what the file looks like when opened by LibreOffice Draw (top)
Mehrad please attach your PDF file
Created attachment 149764 [details] An example PDF file to reproduce the bug. I should have attached the PDF file initially and shouldn't have expect others to have R installed. Regardless, the file is attached.

Two issues, first the PDF is generated and embeds ZapfDignbat font. On filter import, i.e. Opening into Draw, LibreOffice will use a fall back font if the font is not installed and available to system. That is the expected and necessary behavior. To render the PDF using the embedded and subset font--use the Insert as Image method. The data points of the scatter plot are using glyph U+25CF BLACK CIRCLE, but they come in correctly placed and sized even with font substitution. The issue is that for some reason, on import the fallback font's "outline" attribute is being set for the characters, so they are "unfilled"--that seems incorrect. @Miklos?
Sorry, no idea about the PDF-import-into-Draw thing off the top of my head.
Dear Mehrad Mahmoudian, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.
