A draw document as example

When exporting as PDF from Draw some objects that cover only a portion of the page, even if the option "Range->selection" is chosen, the whole page is instead exported.

This does not happen with other export filters, e.g. exporting as png, where if the "selection" is checked, effectively only the selected objects are exported, with the size of the image to dynamically being created to just fit the exported objects.

Confirmed, export to PDF is using the page size not the extent of the selected Draw objects.
