Description: Libreoffice "export as PDF" filter includes a "selection" option to export only the objects that are currently selected. Unfortunately, even in this case, LibO creates a PDF whose bounding box is as large as the whole page. For this usage case it would be much more useful to create a PDF whose bounding box is tight around the selected objects being exported (or to have an option to enable this behavior). Steps to Reproduce: 1. Make a small drawing on some standard paper size 2. Select it 3. Export as PDF with export "selection" only Actual Results: See that the PDF page is as large as the paper size Expected Results: The PDF bounding box should better fit tightly the selection being exported as PDF.

I can't decide if I should accept this, so let's phone the UX philosophers. It's always a good idea to involve them whenever there is a suggestion "to have an option".
Yep, valid, but a long recognized issue, to => DUP The pdfio filter needs to be tweaked. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 41063 ***
