And thats in the "Export as PDF" dialog?

Exporting a selection with zero margins is very useful - if non-zero
margins are desired, you can add an invisible rectangle of the desired
dimensions and include it in the selection. An alternative would be to
have margin settings in the export dialogue. (These ideas were
inspired by Inkscape.)

I see what you want, but that's impossible to implement in a way
that's useful for many people. Because - what's a narrow margin?
Nobody will probably agree on ideal values for margins, and so you
might, even if something like it were implemented, often end up with
a PDF with margins that are either too wide or too narrow.

Yes, thats probably an option. What I was hoping for was a PDF where
only the selected elements were present, possibly with some kind of
small margin of white space. If I draw a 5cm square and export it to
PDF because i want to include it as a graphics in LaTeX, its not
very likely to find a paper format for exactly that shape, that's
why I'm asking. At the moment, I need to reopen every drawing in Mac
OS X Preview and manually cut/paste the selection to a new file.
Doing it once is ok, but several times gets inconvenient, so I
thought there's a smarter way of doing it.

Dear List
I wonder how I can export a selection from and .odg drawing to
PDF. When I select a number of elements in the drawing, I choose
File->Export as PDF, and in the following Dialog I check
"Selection". However, I always end up with a DIN A4 page with the
selected elements.
Is there anything else required to get only the selected elements
into the PDF?
Thanks for any hints.
Martin

What's the problem? Your selection gets converted to PDF with
otherwise default settings. If you want a different page size, you
may have to copy the selection to a blank document and set the
paper size and any other options to what you want before exporting.
