As for my raising a bug, sorry but my Missus is in the shop with end 
stage copd, and I don't have time to fool with it. All I was doing is 
reporting the failure, and with Michaels help took the odt, re-exported 
it as a pdf, and chromium then displayed it properly.  That tells me 
something is wrong with the pdf.  And that it can be fixed by reloading 
the odt and re-exporting it to a proper pdf format.
