Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 40653
Export spreadsheet selection to PDF - partial result
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:12:27 UTC
I try to export a spreadsheet, select columns 1 and 4, go to export as PDF. If I choose 'all' it works fine, if I choose 'selection' I get: "Error saving the document file.sxc. General error. General input/output error." As it says, I'm on 1.1.4 on W2K.
It works for me in ooo 1.9.65 or later, please try it from http://download.openoffice.org/680/index.html As it's almost stable, please use it by default and report bugs for it. After testing, please close this issue or confirm with details that it's still not fixed. Thanks!
Indeed, in OOo 1.9.69 does not give any error. Great. However in the PDF I get a complete mess. I attached a sample file, and two outputs: one with 'include selection' and one with 'include all'.
Created attachment 21606 [details] a simple test worksheet
Created attachment 21607 [details] PDF output when 'export selection' was checked: empty
Created attachment 21608 [details] PDF output when 'export all' was checked: just first column
Thanks for testing. I get different results, but still not correct: When exporting selection (A, D columns), only 1st column is exported. Note: I disabled macros on document loading, but columns A, D don't depend on macros. They display ok in Calc.
Hi, it's not a bug but a limitation. Non contiguos selections are not possible now -> enhancement. Frank
