[Bug 689349]

 

As I said in launchpad,

In Ubuntu's LibreOffice, one can also reproduce this issue with KDE's
Okular, and also by exporting to EPS first, and then using epstopdf to
obtain a PDF file. So it seems to be something in the way LibreOffice
generates the plot (EPS, PDF), that is not visible in EPS or some PDF
viewers, but it is shown (or triggers a bug) in other PDF viewers.

It can be observed by exporting to EPS a simple arrow. Unfortunately, my
knowledge of EPS is not enough to understand what is wrong in the EPS
generated.

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

  cd ~/Desktop && wget
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/689349/+attachment/1763870/+files/classnetwork.odg
  && 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.
