This is not a PDF export problem but a DOCX import problem. The flowchart doesn't have text in Writer

Docx with multiple SmartArt charts breaking, and one that is working

Also reporting this with a file that I came across. Text from the boxes in the SmartArt chart did not render as well as the outline on the boxes themselves.

Seems inconsistent as some charts have only the text disappearing, and some charts have the entire boxes disappearing (even if they have color), and some work perfectly fine.

Hello,

Is there any updates on the priority or status of this ticket?  Was just wondering if there was any timeframe that I could expect for a bugfix related to these cases.

Bugs are fixed if a developer is paid for fixing it or if a developer enjoys fixing it in his spare time.

In case a bug has a lot of duplicates or has a lot of people in CC, then such bug is proposed to be included in a tender from TDF, but that is not the case here.

In case of the flowchart, the text boxes are not empty but have white font color on white background. The "automatic" setting does not work. You can workaround the problem, if in Word use a dedicated color other than pure white or black for the font. Other bug reports with font color problems in SmartArt are bug 54095 and bug 150065.
Comment 15 Regina Henschel 2022-10-28 12:26:27 UTC
The "missing" text is covered by bug 54095. In fact it is white text on white background.

So this issue should focus on the missing arrows and borders in attachment 166819 [details].
Comment 16 Hossein 2023-01-30 10:19:55 UTC
The problem was reproducible with LO 7.4:
Version: 7.4.0.3 (x64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: f85e47c08ddd19c015c0114a68350214f7066f5a
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: fa-IR (fa_IR); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

But now it is no longer reproducible with the latest LO 7.6 dev master:
Version: 7.6.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 2478d4b1a4cec495f1bf68f1e62c01031cdeec86
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19045; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: fa-IR (fa_IR); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

So, I am closing this issue as WORKSFORME. This is probably a duplicate of tdf#86716.
