Bug ID: 156337
Summary: PDF export security tab is disabled and does not tell
what is wrong
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.5.4.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
I would like to export a Writer document as PDF and set a password protection
for the PDF file. But the "security" page of the PDF export options dialog is
disabled (grayed out). I can click on the tab but everything is disabled.
I guess that this is a wanted behaviour because the password protection cannot
be set for some reason. But LibreOffice should at least display a message to
tell me what is wrong so I can fix it.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use Writer or Calc to open a LibreOffice document or start with an empty
document.
2. Go to File / Export as / PDF export
3. Go to the "Security" tab
Actual Results:
No password can be set, the whole page is disabled (grayed out).
No message is shown to tell me what is wrong.
Expected Results:
I should be able to set up a password protection or at least LibreOffice should
show a message to tell me why I cannot do so.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
It used to work in the past. I don't know what changed.
