Some context: A) It started me fuddling with File -> "Export as PDF" to reproduce (in hindsight spurious) bug 166928. I didn't find the issue, but I was rather annoyed by by the print range/layout. Export it on 2 pages I couldn't figure out how to change that in Export as PDF dialog. Well aware about, Print Preview; but I assumed that's about Printing, right Nevertheless I tried the Print Preview. Toggling on Print Preview, makes the Export to PDF directly quite prominent. All other buttons disabled, except Export directly to PDF and Print. At this point I made the connection between Print Preview affecting PDF export. With the conformation by that actual export result. In hindsight I can absolute argue: pressing "Export directly to PDF" button is nearly the same as printing. So Print Preview being relevant for PDF Export makes. However not that was surely not my initial thought. B) When pressing Print - skipping the Print Preview - I still get a preview of the end result before printing. It's more a black box case of Export to (directly) to PDF. C) I still don't really associate. "File -> Export as PDF" with Print preview. Nor do I associate the button " export directly to PDF" with Print Preview as long I don't toggle Print Preview ON first. You can get used to it, but it's not totally intuitive. Sure, only changing the label doesn't solve the problem. Which I assumed at first. Do I have different concrete proposal for improvement; not yet... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
