--- Comment #20 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> --- @Aleve, *, If David T. chooses to respond or not is not relative to whether this suggested UX enhancement merits developer effort. What is germane is that the PDF import filter cleanly handles conversion both on opening and when exporting to PDF--it is not implemented as an ODF document save-as format. Also, there ARE standards for creation of PDF. As there are standards for ODF. And that the Hybrid PDF implemented by Sun Microsystems in the PDF Import Extension--now incorporated into LibreOffice core--is not a standard in any sense. It is a kludge that is only marginally supported by the LibreOffice suite and not by Apache OpenOffice at all. A check-box during export to PDF is probably all the more support that should be provided, the "PDF/ODF Hybrid File" is NOT an interoperability solution and should not be treated as such. Regards PDF, frankly there are more substantive requirements in the correct handling of PDF that the project must address as a priority far more pressing than this novelty. Such as the correct generation of tagged PDF, and of PDF/A archival formats, as well as in implementing support for ISO 32000-1 for PDF 1.7. Or even addressing the current total lack of support for ISO 14289-1 and PDF/UA. And to my mind any of these standards as enhancements that would be worth developer cycles. Of course you are welcome to attempt to code the transition from export check box, to non-native save-as option yourself. Not the first project I'd want to tackle.
