pdf export broken? Strange "save as" file dialog?

Hi,

When using office 2013 and trying to save a file as pdf I end up with a (mostly) empty pdf.
I tried saving by way of

  • "save as" > chose pdf
  • export > xps/pdf

I also get some non-standard save dialog when using "save as". If I use Word 2013 in a VM it looks different and I get more options.
The weird one shows just a drop-down called "Tools" and I can choose file name and file type. The normal one I get in a VM shows much more options ("optimize for..", author, a button called "options" where I can set PDF options...)

Does someone know a way to export PDFs (with bookmarks/content) in wine?

regards

I tried yesterday, I have a blank document.

For me, it's the same error.

OS: Linux Mint 18.1
Machine: Lenovo T470s

Newest Crossover with Office 2013 :/

The incomplete exported PDF files are a known bug that we've been working on.

The open/save dialogs in Office 2013 look different because Office has started using a new API from Windows Vista to create those dialogs. The Wine project had to create a new version of the dialog to support this API, and it's not very mature yet.
