Description Uwe Dippel 2013-09-15 15:58:01 UTC
Created attachment 85868 [details]
Single slide (extract) that shows a graphics only in the editor (at least here)

Problem description: 

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create presentation
2. Add specific graphics
3. Press 'Slide Show'

Current behavior:
In Slide Show (and as PDF) these graphics just do not show up.

Expected behavior:
Presentation looks the same as 'Slide Show' and as PDF

I attach a file of a single slide that shows in the editor, but is bereft of its graphics in Slide Show as well as when converted to PDF.
(This is a bug that I first noted about one year ago, but was hoping to see solved in the meantime)
              
Operating System: Ubuntu
Version: 4.0.2.2 release
Comment 1 ign_christian 2013-09-16 08:54:12 UTC
Not reproducible on LO 3.6.7.2 (Ubuntu 12.04 32bit), graphic shown in slide show & PDF export.

With LO 4.0.5.2 (Win7 32bit) is worsen, graphic not shown in edit mode.

@Uwe Dippel, what format is that graphic? JPG, SVG, EPS?
Comment 2 ign_christian 2013-09-16 09:21:41 UTC
If EPS, possibly a duplicate to: Bug 62038, Bug 64161, Bug 47458, or Bug 67464
Comment 3 Uwe Dippel 2013-09-16 09:53:04 UTC
Yes, I do guess it is a dup of those other bugs, though it was unclear if it was Linux, MacOX, or what.
I think it is a dup because it happens with eps here as well. 
I have literally hundreds of eps inserted in a dozen of slide sets. So converting and re-inserting would probably cost a few days and a lot of headache. 

Does anyone have a better alternative? Does this bug show on OpenOffice as well? If not, I'd installed OpenOffice as presentation and conversion software.
Comment 4 ign_christian 2013-09-17 02:15:08 UTC
I think Bug 62038 is the closest since that reported against Linux, or Bug 67464 (enhancement request for EPS renderer). So you could mark this as a duplicate to one of those bugs if you think so. 

Seems that summary still valid:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47458#c20

After reading those bugs & the related bugs, if I didn't misunderstand, some workarounds that you can try:
- LO 4.x : install Imagemagick or Ghostscript & make sure LO can find it
- downgrade to LO 3.6.7.2

I've never saw reference that current AOO 4 could do that, but you can try that if you want :)
Comment 5 Uwe Dippel 2013-09-17 14:28:15 UTC
What do you mean with "LO can find it"? How do I know, both are installed
and in the path.
But it does not help, alas.

Thanks anyway,

Uwe

Comment 6 Uwe Dippel 2013-09-19 13:20:59 UTC
Okay, the imagemagick && ghostscript tricks do not work.
But downgrade to 3.6.7 works. The interface looks like a pile of c***, but
the images come out properly in presentation mode.

Now I only need someone to tell me how to install two LOs next to each
other?

Let us say this is a very bad regression.

And let me add, that svg-s also come out crooked (cropped, incomplete) with
the 4.0.2.2 version. I am tempted to file another bug report for this one
as well? Or does it end up with the same people who are aware of this
misery already?

Thanks at least for the downgrade-workaround!

Hi Uwe, please forgive me if my answers didn't satisfy you. I tried to give as much as I can.

I saw problems with SVG in several bug reports. Please search that first before filing new bug report.

I think we should mark this as duplicate to Bug 62038 so you can also comment on that bug and hear from others. Feel free to reopen if you think your report is different & should be separated.

PDF export after the fix for bug 62038

Works as expected with the fix for bug 62038, both in slideshow mode and PDF export. Tested with LO 4.2.5.0.0+ under Ubuntu 14.04 x86-64

Best regards. JBF
