I see this has been an issue before, but as the topic in question in now locked, I am froced to make a new one:
Has anyone tried changing the page range when attempting to export a PDF, only for the export window to become unresponsive (all items click and opperate, but dont actually do anything) forcing you to end the task via the task manager?
3plex.skp (10.0 MB)
3plex 2 on the left.layout (9.1 MB)
I didn’t have any problem but that is in LO 2024.
Wait, 2025 is out?
Where did you get that?
No it’s not
I thought you might be implying that I may be running into issues because I am running an old version.
Your profile says you are running an old version; 2022.
Profile has been updated, the issue is on a PC at work running 24.0.594
The issue is probably that I was trying to export page 2, but I entered “2-2”. As it defaults to “1-1” (I assume to export page 1) I tried entering the same range convention, but entering simply “2”, resolved the issue. It appears I may be dumb.
That’s what I did.
I am seeing similar on my Mac today. Every variation I can think of for the page range is ignored and I end up with a copy of the full document.
The only way I managed to clear it was to change the output to JPG and export a single page image then go back and export the pages I wanted to PDF.
Just wonder if anyone else is seeing this?
