Priority: medium
Bug ID: 76034
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Summary: PDF: Export to PDF offers different options than
"Print" to PDF
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Mac OS X (All)
Reporter: michael.tier...@gmail.com
Hardware: Other
Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED

Example dialog as presented when printing to PDF.
Problem description:
I'm sorry if this is a duplicate or even not a real bug or worse, already
fixed.
If I have a document, *ANY* document in writer (all I've tried so far) and ask
to print it I'm given a dialog which gives me the option of updating four
fields, Title, Author (the important one) and Subject & Keywords. (Also
security options.)
However, if I use the "Export as PDF" option, those fields are not presented
for update. This *normally* isn't a problem however, for this document I'm
trying to put someone else's name as author (since they wrote it and I
formatted it) and I can't.
It very well may be pilot error and I apologize if it is.
I've also checked the 'Properties' menu option and there's no place to set the
author's name for the document!
A side effect that I've run into is also that the "Print to PDF" option does
not create the table of contents/index in the PDF whereas "Export to PDF" does.
Expected behavior:
Before printing or Exporting, I'd expect to be able to set any/all variable
fields from the 'Properties' menu option or in another dialog. When printing or
exporting, I'd expect the options presented to be very close to the same.
Operating System: Mac OS X
Version: 4.1.5.3 release
