Well, yes, the pages option starts in the first worksheet, and you can export several pages of every worksheet you would select in the field, from 1-3, or from 2-4, or whatever.

This allows to export any range from whichever group of worksheets.

If you want a particular selection of a particular worksheet, use the "selection/selected sheets" option.

Maybe this report could be repurposed to a RFE to modify the name of the field, from the current simple "Pages" to something else, but I'm not sure what would that be.

Agree with Ady, this is not a bug as the "selected sheet(s)" option exists in both the PDF and Print dialogs.
Can't think of a different wording that would make it clearer.

What difference do you see? In my tests, Print to File works exactly the same: will start at first sheet if "Print all sheets" is selected, will start at active sheet if "Print selected sheets" is selected.
