Re: [libreoffice-users] Strange pdf printout in Calc vs. Excel

Actually, I did not notice that. I recently added myself to the CC list for
that bug as I agree that more control over PDF output from Calc would be
nice.

If I choose File > Print (Ctrl+P); then set "Printer" = "Print to File
..."; then click the "Pint to File..." button. The "Save As" window
appears. The only "Save as type" available is *.PRN. Thus, it does not
appear that a PDF can be produced from Ctrl+P. (Unless an 'PDF Printer' has
been separately installed on the computer.)

My spreadsheets typically include one or more sheets for data and analysis
and a single summary sheet. I typically only distribute the summary sheet
in PDF format.  Thus, from my perspective it would be nice if the Calc
default for PDF creation was the same as for printing (Selected sheets) or
the PDF Export default could be configured in Options or under Expert
Configuration.
