SVG to reproduce the problem

The attached SVG image looks fine when added to an Impress presentation and exported to PDF (meaning you can zoom on it as much as you like, it's always sharp). But when inserted into a Writer doc and exported to PDF, it looks blurry even at 100% zoom, and it's worse when zooming. It's absolutely not suitable for printing.

I've checked that the "Lossless compression" PDF export option is checked: it has no effect.
