This report is a duplicate of 11 years old bug 35092 started by Ian. But since that one is spammed, I closed it as a duplicate of this one. Many devices (i.e. notebooks and tablets) have touch screens and support stylus, pen or finger input. Support for ink drawings / annotations is helpful on these devices. Ian: It would be nice to include inking functionality in LO. When my school was looking at purchasing Office 2007 they compared it against the OpenOffice version at the time, and the only show stopper was the lack of tablet support. We have students hand-write equations and answers into labs and worksheets Regina: Ink-graphics are originally specified in https://www.w3.org/TR/InkML/. Microsoft uses it as extension to OOXML, details in "[MS-ODRAWXML]: Office Drawing Extensions to Office Open XML Structure". In ODF it could be stored as <draw:image> element in a <draw:frame> element. Being an "image" does not mean, that it cannot be edited. Being able to create and to edit such format, would be an implementation detail of LibreOffice, not of the file format. [Similar as for SVG. Being able to edit an SVG would be a feature of LibreOffice, not of the file format.] The frame is able to contain different format versions of the same object and it is up to the application to choose the format which it can handle best. So it would be possible to store a original "ink"-format of MS Office in a <draw:image> element for a later export to MS Office and have a second <draw:image> with png for the current display.

Most of the pptx files I receive nowadays contain InkML drawings. The original bug report for the lack of InkML support was in 2011, and they claimed that this was a showstopper issue in 2007. And now, after 11 years and 0 reaction from the developers, LibreOffice still can't even display InkML. Mind blown.
almos ,this bug is for using digital pen, not for reading of files. See bug 120052 that Pen annotations are shown in documents from LO 7.0. If you have an example that doesn't work, and that's different from bug 138147, please open bug.

I opened bug #148268 about the lack of InkML support, and it was resolved as a duplicate of this one. I now checked #120052 and it is CLOSED FIXED for 7.0, even though 7.3 still cannot display the InkML in the pptx that I attached to #148268.
