I can't reproduce it in Version: 6.2.0.0.beta1+ Build ID: a63cd8bbe7cf881daa8dc7a7f32f3e5ac384e902 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: ca-ES (ca_ES.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.
Created attachment 147570 [details] demonstration of problem Since I can reproduce this bug with both Ubuntu versions I am using (16.04 & 18.04), I recorded 38 seconds video to demonstrate the issue, I hope it could help in identifying the problem.
A Debian user on IRC has this same problem. Unfortunately I have been unable to get more data from him (version, vcl etc.), but let's confirm. I guess profile corruption can be ruled out because Ljiljan is seeing this in Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04.
mst did a little tweak that looks like it *might* help: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/plugins/gitiles/core/+/c8dd1c22d7512d4922461350c6cb804cd0864e0b%5E%21/ vcl: unx: apply configuration to "Generic Printer" so it's PDF ... ... by default, instead of leaving it with m_nPSLevel == 0 && m_nPDFDevice == 0. Unfortunately there are no current Linux master builds for you to test with.

By now, this is included in current LibreOffice versions. @Ljiljan: Does the problem still occur with LibreOffice 6.3?
I tested the option "Print to file" in LibreOffice 6.3, Ubuntu 19.10 and it works. I don't need to change the output format every single time, PDF is automatically produced. Thanks for the fix!
