[This is an automated message.] This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases.

Dear bug submitter! Due to the fact, that there are a lot of NEEDINFO bugs with no answer within the last six months, we close all of these bugs. To keep this message short, more infos are available @ https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/NeedinfoClosure#Statement Thanks for understanding and hopefully updating your bug, so that everything is prepared for developers to fix your problem. Yours! Florian
Created attachment 67317 [details] the same document, saved as PDF using msWord 2007
Reproduced in 3.3.4 and 3.6.1 on Fedora 64 bit Background picture almost not seen. Some problem with formatting. Animation of first line looks different than in Word. (Attached pdf contains ? instead of some character. It is Word's fault)
Confirmed:4.2.0.1:OSX just verifying this is still valid.
Brigtness and Contast of the background image are 82% and 18% in the original Word document, respectively on a 0-100% scale. In LibreOffice we have 64% and -64% but on a -100% - 100% scale, which looks like a correct conversion. However, the actual result looks different.
