Description Carl Haynes 2014-05-18 09:11:11 UTC
Problem description: 

The exported PDF cannot be opened. It returns `No such file or directory` although the file has been successfully created.

The exported PDF has spaces in the file name. Can this be causing the issue?

Steps to reproduce:
1. Click on the icon to export the document as PDF
2. An Error dialog will show up saying that there is no such file or directory


              
Operating System: Linux (Other)
Version: 4.2.4.2 release

WFM in Windows, an OS more forgiving of spaces in file names.

But also, WFM in Fedora 20, DE: GNOME Version 3.10.2
LibreOffice Version: 4.2.4.2
Build ID: 63150712c6d317d27ce2db16eb94c2f3d7b699f8

Saving, Export to PDF, even setting the "View PDF after Export" all seem to function correctly with the built-in file browser.

What Desktop Environment are you using, improve if you change? 

Also, any improvement if you escape the spaces with back slash when completing the export dialog?
