This is the text which produces the problem:

** LibreOffice 7.6 has a new feature called "multicolor gradients"
(MCGR) implemented by Armin Le Grand. A multicolor gradient still goes
from a starting color to final color, but now additional colors are
possible in between.
** Although the ''Gradient'' tab in the ''Area'' dialog has not yet
been adapted to the new feature, you can use such gradients. The
document ... lists hints on what you can already do, and the
''Gradient'' list in the dialog contains two "Rainbow" examples.
** You can create and modify multicolor gradients using macros, see
the ''Gradient2'' struct and the associated ''ColorStop'' struct in
the SDK API reference
https://api.libreoffice.org/docs/idl/ref/index.html.
** Since this is a new feature, you might find errors. In this case,
please help improve the feature by reporting the issue in our bug
tracking system "Bugzilla"
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Bugzilla. When doing so, mention
'MCGR' in the subject line.
** Some notes:
*** LibreOffice versions prior to 7.6 cannot interpret multicolor
gradients. They will display a gradient made from the first and last
color.
*** You need to use "1.3 Extended (recommended)" file format. This is
the default setting, so don't worry.
*** Some gradient properties in ODF (LibreOffice) and OOXML (Microsoft
Office) are basically incompatible. This problem is not solved by
multicolor gradients.</translate>

I'm not an expert but I think you need a "translate" start tag and a
"translate" end tag at each line.
I tried with:

Perhaps there's another way but when taking a look at the existing page,
it seemed the right way to do it. Also I tested it in Core section by
using Preview and it seemed ok to me.
If you're still stuck, I can submit it if you want (at worst, it's
always possible to modify afterwards)
