Created attachment 184342 [details] Mangled/garbled by LibreOffice ODG file created from PDF If I open a file (to be attached 'filing_a_small_claim.pdf'), it becomes somewhat garbled/mangled. Specifically, list numbers and text overlap in some places. The mangled/garbled file is 'filing_a_small_claim_1_mangled.pdf.odg'. It was obtained the following way: 1. I opened the source 'filing_a_small_claim.pdf' file in LibreOffice - LibreOffice used the "Draw" component to open it. 2. From the File menu I saved the file using "Save a Copy" feature.
Created attachment 184343 [details] The source file used to demonstrate the bug
Created attachment 184344 [details] Screenshot showing the problem The right part of the screenshot shows correctly displayed in Okular source file; the left part of the screenshot shows garbled/mangled PDF as displayed by LibreOffice Draw.
Please note that Scribus ( https://www.scribus.net/ ) and Xournal++ ( https://xournalpp.github.io/ ) display the source PDF file correctly and allow editing it (at least in the form of adding text).
Why are you opening that file in Draw? You should be opening it in Writer... Not that it will look that much better, but still.

That's a different issue: Bug 14173... regardless - in the file type menu, you can scroll down and find "Portable Document Format (Writer)" or something like that, and have it open in Writer.
