I suppose that LibreOffice could filter some printers from the list shown here. Yet, it's not only "these Microsoft printers" - there are many virtual printers available: search for "printer" at the related Wikipedia article[1]. Additionally, I believe that the names of these printers on the system could change based on the software version, localization, and number of copies of a printer (it's possible to have several such "printers" installed, with different settings each). Thus, the correct approach is indeed to avoid such printers on the system level, where exporting is restricted.

Thank you for detailed explanation! Yep, "Microsoft Print To PDF" was indeed
selected. Oh, now I see. If LibreOffice can block some printers, for example
"Microsoft Print To PDF"?
Or the only way to have desired behaviour is to turn off these Microsoft
printers at system level?

And "yes" to this one :) I should had been more specific in my previous reply: the "No" there was to the "LibreOffice executes PDF virtual printer by design after 'Print' button was clicked?" question. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

No. But your description ("3.Click the 'Print' button; 4.Prompt to save the
document in pdf") indicate that the printer that is selected in the Print
dialog is a virtual PDF printer installed on your system (e.g., "Microsoft
Print To PDF"). And it's the printer that shows you the "Save As" dialog, not
LibreOffice; and LibreOffice can't prevent a third-party printer driver from
showing whatever that driver wants...

In my case I want user to be able to print the document, but not to export. That's why I'm not using lockPrint option. So if lockExport is set to true, I expected SaveAs dialogs to be disabled wherever they appear. Sorry, I'm not sure what is PDF virtual printer exactly means. LibreOffice executes PDF virtual printer by design after 'Print' button was clicked? PDF virtual printer execution always results in SaveAs dialog? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
