Graph imported from excel

The issue is when i try and copy a graph created in Excel to LO Impress data is missing once printed. 
It initial looks fine as data has been copied across and can be viewable on the screen.

The issue arises when you then go to print or export to pdf the presentation. Basically all the data on the graph is missing.


I have also tried a Paste special as a Bitmap. This works better as when printed the data is retained. The only issue with the document then is the image is missing the bottom and right outline borders.

"Export as PDF" result with LO 4.3.0.4

Bottom border is too thin, right border is almost not appeared. If using cups pdf printer, the results is much better.

Tested on LO 4.3.0.4 - Ubuntu 12.04 x86

My setup was Excel 2013 to LO which was done on a Windows 7 64bit machine.

LO used was 4.3.0.4, i also downloaded and tested on LO 4.4.0.0 alpha0+ with the same results.

Have attached my original xlsx file that i copied the graph from to LO.

I am happy to use LibreOffice only, unfortunately the rest of the world has not caught up yet, hence this is a problem. A fix to this bug would be very much appreciated. Go you good thing, LibreOffice team.
