Bug ID: 152304
Summary: Export as PDF only exports text selected (if text
selected)
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.3.6.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: wilkins.pe...@gmail.com
When exporting as PDF from Writer (when text is selected)
> File > Export As > Export as PDF...
Only the selected text is exported as PDF. While I can imagine that this might
be useful on occasion, it is not the expected action. One expects the entire
document to be exported - just as if:
> File > Save As...
Due to this idiosyncratic behaviour, I have accidentally distributed a PDF that
only contained a few words of text - not the entire document that recipients
were expecting. Now, I pause before exporting to PDF to double check that some
random text is not selected and that the cursor is sitting at the end of a line
or between two characters?
Is this the intended behaviour?
I am sure that few people expect Export As to behave this way.
If this is a bug, then it should be fixed.
If this is the intended behaviour, then could we initiate a discussion on this
issue?
TIA
