--- Comment #5 from Buovjaga <todventtu@suomi24.fi> ---
(In reply to xghost from comment #4)
@adolfo: Yes. I unchecked the box and tried exporting again and it solved
the problem.

Is there a way that the UI can be improved on this? It is not at all obvious
that "exporting" a PDF will be using the same options as sending the file
for "printing" on a printer.

In fact, the option is not even shown in the exporting options dialog
presented to the user (e.g. File > Export as PDF...). If printing options
are going to affect exports, then the relevant settings should be displayed
to the user.

I understand the reply may be "We're just printing to a file, so it makes
sense to use print settings", which is fine and is not the issue. The issue
is that it is not at all clear/obvious to the user that this is the case.

Hope this can be improved and further false positives like mine avoided.

Let's ask UX.
