Created attachment 184044 [details] Sample Issue Images I have recently edited some older DOCX files from 2016 and noticed this peculiar issue. I opened the file to edit a few text lines, saved back as DOCX, and exported a PDF. I was surprised to find that every grouped object was corrupted--the shapes were missing and only the text from the shapes remained. I had a copy so opened both files. The copy loaded ok, but the text size was a bit large in the shapes. I copied the old grouped objects to the new doc deleting the erroneous text from the new doc. I then adjusted the grouped shapes using a variety of means: 1. recreating an entire grouped object with native objects in LibreOffice 2. ungrouping and modifying text, adjusting positioning and size of objects, and regrouping 3. editing text size directly in a grouped object In all cases, when adjusting the grouped object to its original position I needed to change from anchor "as character" to anchor "to paragraph", change the wrap from "parallel" to "wrap off" (as it would not allow otherwise), change anchor back to "as character", center if needed (as they were generally in there own paragraph), and set the Align Objects to "Top". I then saved as ODT, DOCX, and exported a PDF. 1. Opening the PDF is a PDF viewer looked ok. 2. Opening and reviewing the DOCX seems ok. 3. Open and reviewing the ODT is missing EVERY OTHER OBJECT! In other words, half the grouped objects are missing--the even entries. Very odd. The ODT file has a place holder for the grouped objects with the appropriate size, but the object seems to be missing as seen in the "06" image. The attached PDF show the above sequence results: 1. "01" show the original "before edits" sample from a PDF. 2. "02" show an "after initial text edits" sample from the exported PDF. 3. "03" and "04" show the reopened DOCX file issues for the first two grouped items. 4. "05" and "06" show the corrected and reopened ODT file issues for the first two grouped items. "05" is ok. "06" showed the highlighted area of the first missing grouped object. I cannot create a suitable test document for release at this time.

Could you please attach these file? Without a sample document I don't see any chance to reproduce the problem. => NEEDINFO
