isn't this really a number of problems you talk about, please ensure that you have one issue per bug otherwise things can get mighty confusing. If I understand things correctly then the issues you have are a) changes in the user data not reflected in the properties b) names in the wrong order ( in pdf document ? ) c) some indication of the properties that are exported to pdf btw for a) above I can't reproduce that in rc4, perhaps you forgot to press the 'reset' button ( opposite the checkbox that enabled the userdata ) this refreshes the userdata for b) you really should explain what happens and what you expect to happen.. additionally what your locale/language is for c) I would say that it makes little sense to tell the user each individual feature that won't be exported when you save in a different format. I know you mention just the properties here but this is actually is just one instance of something that isn't exported amongst a much larger list. Additionally afaic comments don't event exist in pdf 1.4 ( which is the pdf format we export to ) please split this bug into separate issues as appropriate (In reply to comment #1) > btw for a) above I can't reproduce that in rc4, perhaps you forgot to press the > 'reset' button ( opposite the checkbox that enabled the userdata ) this > refreshes the userdata Sorry, I missed that. > for b) you really should explain what happens and what you expect to happen.. > additionally what your locale/language is In hungarian and a couple other languages the family name is the first. But writer doesn't write it that way. But it wouldn't be a problem if the user could edit the author name for the exported. > for c) I would say that it makes little sense to tell the user each individual > feature that won't be exported when you save in a different format.

Additionally afaic > comments don't event exist in pdf 1.4 ( which is the pdf format we export to ) This is not what I meant. Quite the opposite actually. Show what will get exported, so that the user can change it. Also the user would see exactly what metadata will be written to the pdf file. After you exported it you can only edit it with a pdf editor. > please split this bug into separate issues as appropriate How would I do that? Just start new bugs? [This is an automated message.] This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases. Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugHunting_Session_3.5.0.-1 more detail on this bulk operation: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/RFC-Operation-Spamzilla-tp3607474p3607474.html needinfo keyword redundant by needinfo status. @ Zsolt In version 3.5.0 problem still exist? (In reply to comment #5) > @ Zsolt > In version 3.5.0 problem still exist? I still don't see any control over the author attribute. I also can not find this (how change author). But author exports correctly to pdf (if on English). My be intention was that it will made by using button "Reset" in File->Properties. IMHO it can be implemented using Basic macro. @ Zsolt My be among extensions for OpenOffice exist one with this functionality. Please, verify. Dear bug submitter! Due to the fact, that there are a lot of NEEDINFO bugs with no answer within the last six months, we close all of these bugs. To keep this message short, more infos are available @ https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/NeedinfoClosure#Statement Thanks for understanding and hopefully updating your bug, so that everything is prepared for developers to fix your problem.

Auto marked as needinfo. And then auto marked as invalid based on that.... I think I provided extensive description in the comments The Author field now seem to be dependent on the name I set in the preferences. But for it to appear in the correct order according to my language I have to switch the given name and the family name which Anyway, there's still no possibility to edit the metadata which will be exported. I don't why is this missing a metadata tab would fit fine with the other settings on the pdf settings window which pops up whan I export a PDF (from the menu) (In reply to comment #12) > But for it to appear in the correct order according to my language I have to > switch which It seems like I didn't finish a sentence. So: But for it to appear in the correct order according to my language I have to set the my name erroneously (switching the given name and the family name), which is a very ugly workaround... Sorry for that, but you agree, a change was needed.... (Devs are only looking at NEW bugs, not at NEEDINFO... Sorry for that, but you agree, a change was needed.... (Devs are only looking at NEW bugs, not at NEEDINFO... Sorry for the double comment. I HATE MY BROWSER FROM TIME TO TIME |
