            Bug ID: 105445
           Summary: PDF Export ignores "Export comments" checkbox
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.1.6.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Description:
When a spreadsheet has comments on cells and I try to export a PDF, deselecting
the "Export comments" checkbox does not hide the comment in the exported PDF.

If I check the box, I also get an icon indicating a PDF annotation/comment,
which can be viewed through my PDF viewer software; I suppose this is the
expected behavior (aside from the fact that the comment is also rendered as
above). What I'm trying to say is that the checkbox appears to work correctly
as far as telling the PDF viewer to show an actual comment as a true
annotation/comment, but some other aspect of the code is actually rendering the
comment in the PDF exactly as it appears in the Calc document.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Insert a comment to a cell
2. Make sure the comment is visible in the spreadsheet by selecting Show
comment if necessary
3. Go to File->Export as PDF
4. Make sure "Export comments" is deselected
5. View the PDF

Actual Results:  
The PDF shows the comment as part of the PDF file

Expected Results:
The comment should not be shown


Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
Tested with 5.1.6.2, 5.2.2.2, and 5.2.4.2 - all on Mac OS
Tested with 5.1.6.2 on Windows
Viewed with FoxIt, Mac Preview, and Adobe Reader
