Hmm.

the soffice.bin profile has:

https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/sysui/desktop/apparmor/program.soffice.bin#n126:

INSTDIR-program/xpdfimport        px,

so that should do it unless it gets confused by the
../program/xpdfimport...

So you activated the disabled profile in the first place before? :)

But good to know,
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-openoffice/libreoffice.git/commit/?h=debian-experimental-5.4&id=722c77ba929ae5dee90ca9070a98b294de8ad61f has complain
for soffice.bin and oosplash. I'd believe those two in complain should
fix it, if xpdfimport gets called that would be the .xpdfimport
profile..
