Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 49869
exporting to pdf only the highlighted area
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:31:28 UTC
I'm using Draw to do some diagrams that will be used in my latex documents. When I export some highlighted part of my drawing to pdf a whole page is produced (even if I switched the checkbox on pdf export dialog box). When I export to some other format (jpg, eps) I get only the highlighted part. The only solution I've found is to change the page settings, so that the highlighted area fills the whole page. But those settings are global for my whole document. Maybe would you consider adding some "adjust page size to the highlighted area size" checkbox, if exporting of highlighted area is chosen. Cheers
pl->sj: please have a look
sj->mmp: Our PDF specification says only "The export range selection remains unchanged from Ooo1.1: options exist to export all pages, a range of pages or only the current selection." Except for the current selection we have to be more precise, especially for Impress & Draw. I would like to change the export so that the page size is as big as the current selection. Do you see any problems ?
I am no longer officially active in OOo. Please take over.
