Created attachment 94308 [details]
Sample documents and screenshots of the PDF export window showing the options used.

Problem description: 
When typing in a text a website address, I don't want to automatically create a link to it. I configure LibreOffice to not auto create links. When I export the PDF, that I suppose will only show my plain text, it creates automatically a link to the website, even if i uncheck all the "Links" option on PDF export window.

Steps to reproduce:
1. create a new document and type a wevsite address, making sure to not create a hyperlink of it (maintain plain text)
2. export in PDF

Current behavior:
The resulting PDF have an hyperlink where should be only plain text

Expected behavior:
The resulting PDF should have just the plain text without hyperlinks

There is no hyperlink in the exported PDF. What you are seeing is (some) PDF viewers being helpful and detecting a text that looks like a URL and making it a hyperlink. There is nothing we can do to prevent such a viewer behavior AFAIK.
