Description John Herr 2026-01-25 22:18:33 UTC
Description:
No longer an option on Libre Office to save a document I create as PDF, only as ODF.  Cannot upload ODF to Fedex Office & print document there.  Please restore ODF or else liaison with Fedex Office & get them to recognize ODF.

Actual Results:
Create document in Libre Office.  Select Save As from File dropdown menu.  This no longer offers PDF as an option, only ODF, which can't be transmitted  to Fedex Office & printed there.

Expected Results:
Libre Office needs to reinstate PDF as an option under File / Save As.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
Need to have Libre Office restore PDF as an option to save document.

It is not "Save as", it is "Export As>Export as PDF".
It generates the PDF file, but you remain in the ODF, save it to keep both.
