Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Calc: PDF export vs. print to a PDF printer

Hi Frank,

I will try to explain better:
1. suppose we have a *multi-sheet* Calc document (ods file);
2. when you go to print preview, you see only the current sheet (print 
preview) and the page numbers are consequently assigned;
3.1. if you have *to print* (on paper or on a pdf printer) *only some 
pages* of the *current* (selected) sheet, in the *print dialog window* 
you can choose the sheet and than (and also!) the page range (that is 
*coherent* with the print preview one!);
3.2. if you have *to export* natively the pdf of only some pages of the 
current sheet *you have to* (you ought to), after having seen the print 
preview, select the associated area, go to file menu -> Export in PDF... 
and and then choose selected area in the *Export to PDF dialog window* 
(as you, Frank, have just pointed out).

I hope to have explained better the trouble.

What do you think?

Carlo
