Re: Export to PDF?

[Peter Senna Tschudin <peter senna gmail com>]

Hi Michael,

Thank you for the help, but the print to PDF do not work for me. I
want to include the PDF in Latex documents and print to PDF do not
work, due formatting issues.

Print to PDF is different from export to PDF.

But maybe I'm in the wrong place... Should I contact Fedora package maintainer?

Thanks!
