Comment 3 grigoreflorin1985 2010-12-09 23:37:47 UTC
Tested again in Draw , Spreadsheet and found that it is only an Writer bug the fact that`s loading a null paragraph.

Maybe a fix to move the file to Draw like Spreadsheet do ?

That looks like a fix :)

needinfo keyword redundant by needinfo status.
Comment 6 sasha.libreoffice 2012-01-04 01:51:38 UTC
Reproduced on LibO 3.5.0 beta 1 on Fedora 64 bit
Writer inserts dropped in its window documents (text documents) as sections. It is ok. And when we drop pdf there, writer thinks that it is text document and inserts sections. But able nothing to do with it.
IMHO it would be better if Writer accept pdf as picture when dropped in its window.

I can't open this attached file in Adobe Reader X?

@Sasha: Could you please give more information about the individual steps how to reproduce it?  I am not sure whether I understand this correctly.
Comment 8 sasha.libreoffice 2013-05-04 06:54:48 UTC
Steps to reproduce:
0. Start Writer (empty document appears)
1. Start any filemanager (in my case used Krusader)
2. Find any correct PDF file and drag and drop it into Writer's document
3. In dialog about inserting section click "OK"
Expected: contents of pdf should be somehow shown in document
Actually: empty section in document
Comment 9 A (Andy) 2013-05-04 07:51:07 UTC
@Sasha: Thank you very much for the additional information how to reproduce it.

tested with an additional own working pdf-document -> reproducible with LO 4.0.2.2 (Win7 Home, 64bit)

Comment 14 Konrad Beringer 2014-11-14 15:02:58 UTC
Try to open existing PDP file will imported twice (automatic), therefore the new document will be not clear shown and can’t be used.

@Konrad 
do not change version field. it has to indicate earliest version the bug has been reproduced, not the latest.
