Description Telesto 2020-12-22 12:53:41 UTC
Description:
Exporting Image or Drawing to PNG doesn't insert DPI resolution with Skia (previously OpenGL). Working with GDI

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open attachment 168385 [details]
2. Select the shape
3. File -> Export
4. Pick PNG and enter a file name
5. Set DPI to 222 cm/or inch (does not matter)
6. Export
7. Open the file with Gimp or another image viewer.. notice dpi missing

Actual Results:
No dpi inside the file (also not totally sure about the resolution)

Expected Results:
Should be the case


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Support for native 32bit Bitmap in VCL and SVP (cairo) backend
This adds basic support for 32bit bitmaps for the SVP backend. For 
other backends the support is disabled for now as we need to add it for 
each backend separately and enable support.

When this patch is applied it is possible to a Bitmap with bit count 
32, but currently no input filter uses this with the exception of the 
new PngImageReader(libpng based), which is used only for the icons.

For a general support more things need to be implemented and tested:
- conversion back and fourth between 32-bit and 24-bit + 8bit alpha (or 
other supported pairs) 
- 'raw' export of the bitmap needs to be handeled properly (like in
SVM import/export) so it creates the correct image.
- input filters need to be checked and converted if this is necessary
- look for possible bugs when drawing transparent bitmaps
- check of UNO API

-> This is only about lacking dpi. The resolution is a mess too. Should be somewhere in the close area of the identified commit here

Conformation of this can be found in bug 132959. Setting to NEW

@MWT
I think lots of issue are coming from here.. Compare Export results from Master with 6.2 (running OpenGL). I think it's also relevant for transparency topic [but not sure of course]

Not Skia specific, using KF5 and Gtk3 backends has the same problem.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 132959 ***
Comment 6 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2023-07-19 16:35:41 UTC
Setting this 6.3 regression back to New to keep it separate from the older issue in bug 132959.

For the record, I followed a similar process as Teleto, on Linux and with Draw:

Steps:
1. Open attachment 168385 [details]
2. File > Export > as PNG, make sure it uses 96 DPI
3. Open file in GIMP, look at metadata in Image > Image Properties

Alternatively, with command line:
1. convert the file:
instdir/program/soffice --headless --convert-to png star.odg

2. Use ImageMagick's command line tool "identify" to see missing metadata:
identify -verbose star.png | head -10

Results:
Resolution is at 72 ppi.
Resolution, print size and units are missing from identify output.

Expected:
96 ppi and useful metadata.

Present in recent master buid at 24.2 alpha as well as 6.3.6.2. Not in 6.2.0.3, so it's a regression.

Bibisected with linux-64-6.3 bibisect repo to first bad commit e36ad95ea54fcef5b6b97de27a7e8843b78b9e1b which points to core commit:

Tomaž, can you please have a look?
