To reproduce the problem just do the following:

1) Open any LibreOffice application (either Writer, Calc or Draw)
2) Create a figure (e.g. the smiley or an arrow)
3) Export the document as PDF
4) Open the created file

Results: Figures always have a black coloured 1x1 pixel at their
top/left.

Opening the PDF in AR X I can't see anything unexpected (as visible in vitriol's screenshot, although I use very big zoom).


@Lars Knickrehm / all:
Please attach a screenshot from PDF viewer with comments and contribute more detailed information concerning your OS, PDF viewer, PDF export settings and what ever might be related.

Doing some tests I found out the following:

1) The problem occurs on Adobe Reader only. The pdf reader on my Nokia
works nice and other pdf readers seem to work (as the others reported),
too.

2) It's always 1x1 pixel: In case I zoom in, things zoom as they should,
but the single 1x1 pixel dot stays where it is and does not zoom.

Note: I used the attachment "PDF samle" for testing. The attached image
shows the problem, just the way I see it, too.

It's not an Adobe Reader only problem. As I said I can view pixels in
Foxit an PDF-XChange too. I don't use Adobe Reader, and I cannot test
with it.

With Evince as PDF Viewer the dots are invisible. But the dots are still
there, it seems. If you draw a smiley in Draw and convert it to curve,
then ungroup the shape and go to Points mode, you can see the dots.

I think solving the extrapoint issue will also heal problems with PDF

Bug 31851 - Artifacts (vertical short lines) in PDF-Export indeed seems
to be concerning the same problem like this one, please see my comments
there when I mark it at a DUP of this one, because here we have
collected much more information.

Unfortunately I do not know to whom we can assign this issue.

Lars Knickrehm, @vitriol
Information concerning the LibO version you used for your review is required.
I would really like to know from where you got the WIN Master build you used for your test.

Can you contribute a Git link? I set target due to your Comment 20

Rainer, I have not used any version of LibO for my last test and
comment... I have simply tested attached test.pdf (pdf sample, fixed
version) provided by Tor.

@vitriol:
Ah, yes, please excuse me - my reasoning was too sophisticated. 

Indeed, on your screenshot the dots can be found easily, and after I
wiped the screen I now in a second attempt I also see them in Tor's PDF
iwth AR X (but they really are nearby invisible).

So we definitely can NOT close this Bug.

@Tor:
did you also do clio's test after the fix? may be we had a double-bug, and only one has been eliminated with your fix?

Assuming question was directed at me - nope, don't think so, was just mislead by my debugger - my fix was indeed incomplete, working on an updated one.

  3) What is expected to happen is when one performs at the Terminal:

  cd ~/Desktop && wget

  && lodraw -nologo classnetwork.odg

  File -> Export as PDF -> Save button

  Then perform at the Terminal:

  acroread classnetwork.pdf
  evince classnetwork.pdf

  it looks the same in both evince and acroread.

  4) What happens instead is acroread displays erroneous pixel-sized
  dots, while evince does not.

  Unconfirmed OOo WORKAROUND: The upstream version does _not_ produce
  these effects and is fine.
