Created attachment 89469 [details] Example document to export to PDF Problem description: Paragraphs with a dotted border makes exported PDF files huge. If I print to file with a postscript printer, the postscript file also becomes huge. Steps to reproduce: 1. Export the attached dotted-border-bug.odt to PDF. Current behavior: The PDF file becomes 13 MB. If I zoom in on the PDF file, I see that there are a lot more dots in the borders compared to how it looks in Writer. Expected behavior: The PDF file should be kilobytes, not megabytes. If I create lots of boxes in Draw using a dotted border, the PDF file stays small. Operating System: Fedora Version: 4.1.3.2 release
Reproducted with the same LibO version 4.1.2.3 on Win7. Other findings : - If I zoom both files (ODT and PDF), I can see approx. the same number of dots (hard to count...) - the width is somewhat large (1pt), with a dotted line (not dashed one). In this case, I expect that the distance between the points grow of the same proportion than the width, so that the points remain roughly circulars ; Both in ODT and PDF we can see a opposite choice. - could PDF, attempting to exactly mimic Writer, results in the huge size (individual drawing command for each dot) ?
CONFIRMED on Ubuntu 12.04.3 with LibreOffice Version: 4.2.0.1 (In reply to comment #0) > Steps to reproduce: > 1.

Using Document Viewer 3.4.0 (Using poppler/cairo (0.18.4)), I see many more dots in the PDF vs. in LO. Status: NEW

Still reproducible. Although the file size has come down to about 4 MB. Windows Vista 64 Version: 4.4.3.2 Build ID: 88805f81e9fe61362df02b9941de8e38a9b5fd16 Master took maybe 20 or 30 seconds to export. If you do not be patient and click on the window you can get the "not responding" state. Version: 5.1.0.0.alpha1+ Build ID: 5fc0cbbc1254223fedf0f78c5e7539219b228697 TinderBox: Win-x86@39, Branch:master, Time: 2015-06-11_04:30:51
