I have this in odt:

When exporting as pdf from libre writer, I end up with:

As you can see, the parts that I put them using insert -> formula, disappears partially. Why?

  1. It seems that this happens when (the computer's memory is less* and) the document has large number of formulas [1].

    A workaround would be to increase the cache size of OLE objects, i.e. go to Tools > Advanced > Open Expert Configuration and increase the value of "org.openoffice.Office.Common/Cache/Writer/Writer" from 20 (default) to a value of 600 [1, 2].

    To be sure, restart LO writer after saving the above change.

    *I increased my laptop's RAM from 3GB to 6GB and, in spite of this, the problem persisted. So I am unsure as to how much RAM is "less" RAM. Thankfully the workaround seems to work.
