Description grieb.kyle 2019-07-24 22:03:43 UTC 
Description:
I open a file (PDF) for editing and want to save (export) that file overwriting the original file.

Open > Export as PDF > Save (replace currently opened file) > General/Input Output error (Unable to save export).

I am able to save other file types with them open, but would also like this feature for the export functionality.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open PDF
2. Export as PDF
3. Select the currently opened file

Actual Results:
General Input/Output Error

Expected Results:
File Save


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

This is adjusted for the 6.3.0 release. But as LibreOffice is not a PDF editor, using its import / export filter process will corrupt source PDFs!
