Description: When a DOCX document contains more than 20 charts, the PDF export is not correct: some or all charts are distorted. The issue is not the same in all situation: - It happens every time on all charts in headless mode on Linux (Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and Mac OSX, not tested on Windows) when the document is converted to a PDF. - It happens sometimes with LibreOffice Writer UI when exporting the DOCX to a PDF. - It happens sometimes in LibreOffice Writer UI without exporting. Editing the chart fix the chart temporarily. The issue disappears if we increase the value of OLE_Objects in Advance settings of /org.openoffice.Office.Common/Cache/Writer. This value is 20 by default. See attached files. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a DOCX with MS Office, add 21 pie charts with default values 2. Open this DOCX file with LibreOffice Writer 3. Export to PDF Actual Results: Some or all charts are distorted Expected Results: Charts should keep the original aspect ratio Reproducible: Sometimes User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Version: 7.5.4.1 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 3a6a10a8a824826630ea908dcaea93b45a6a0af1 CPU threads: 10; OS: Mac OS X 12.6.5; UI render: default; VCL: osx Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded

Does it change if you edit OLE_Objects under org.openoffice.Office.Common/Cache/Writer, using Expert Configuration dialog (Options->LibreOffice->Advanced)?
Ah, I see you described it, sorry for the noise
(In reply to Mike Kaganski from comment #7) > Ah, I see you described it, sorry for the noise Yes, I was very happy to find this workaround :) ! I think it is also a good hint to solve the problem for someone who knows this part of the LO code.
(In reply to david from comment #0) > Description: > When a DOCX document contains more than 20 charts, the PDF export is not > correct: some or all charts are distorted. When I open your DOC with 21 charts, most charts (not on the first page) are distorted already, suggesting that if there's a problem at all, it's in the DOC import. Also, if I open the 20-chart document and add an extra chart, then export - there's no issue with the resulting PDF. So, either there's something wrong with the DOCX to begin with, or it's an import filter problem.
