Stephan, I wasn't defending the extension issues... I filed the issue of
not being able to import EPS graphics back in 2008:
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=90739
[* Summary:     PDF Import not importing eps graphic]

I also don't use the extension for anything serious - such as filling
out forms:
<http://www.mail-archive.com/users@libreoffice.org/msg01162.html>

I was merely pointing out that the extension has limitations.

No argument there. As I said "but apparently it is what it is."

File a bug and/or:
http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/en/project/pdfimport
"To further improve this extension, please continue sending us feedback
at dev@graphics.openoffice.org."
