Description terrycurran 2009-02-06 17:12:35 UTC 
When i click the export as PDF button, I am presented with the dialog to save 
the file and it offers the file name and the automatic filed extension of .pdf 
which is correct. However when I then accept the defaults I am prompted with a 
box to 'Confirm Save As', which tells me that the file already exists and 
offers the name of the original source file.  This is incorrect action as I am 
exporting as PDF. The same error results if I use File > Export as PDF.

This also seems to be happening with 'Save As', the file extension is not being 
changed correctly!

Auto Extension does not work with Windows dialogues in Vista (32 on my side)
when exporting to pdf.

Saving an odt as ott or doc changes the extension correctly, though. So does
export to bib, text or MediaWiki txt.

Workaround:
Go to Tools>Options>OpenOffice.org>General and activate "Use OpenOffice.org
dialogs".

The same problem appears if i try to save an opend .doc document using ´Save As´
.odt (or other extension). If I ´Save As´ .odt and confirm overwriting existing
file, the file produced is a .doc by name but an .odt by structure (so does
.pdf). Renaming from .doc to .odf (or .pdf) or using the ´Open with´ dialogue in
Vista opens the file correctly.

Comment 13 hennerdrewes 2009-02-16 22:21:54 UTC 
When the autoextension check box is checked, the extension should be removed
from the default file name, so that the file picker can append the correct
extension, according to the selected filter.

The tricky part of this issue is: If known extensions are hidden (in Windows
Explorer), the filename field of the file picker doesn't show the extension. But
the selected file is actually the document file (doc in the given example).

This problem does not exist in 3.0.0 for Windows, it first appears in 3.0.1 for 
Windows, so something has changed between the 3.0.0 and 3.0.1, perhaps the 
changes between the two versions should be reviewed!
