Description gromeck 2008-01-16 09:37:58 UTC 
Currently single images and frames (and other objects) can be marked for printing.
It would be helpful to add a similar flag for objects to control whether they
will be exported (for PDF), or not.

When I print a document, it will be printed on business paper which has stuff
like a logo and banking information already on it.

When I export a document as PDF to send it via email, I expect the logo and
other stuff to appear in the PDF. Currently I have to switch the print flag for
all objects before exporting as PDF.

Why can't you use File - Export as PDF... - General - Range - Selection?

Because it is not possible to mark multiple frames, tables and text (except the object which should not be exported).

I support this request. It would be a useful feature to allow settings for pdf export be different from printer settings. [We had a similar discussion for automatically insert blank pages, and got a check box for that in pdf export.]
