            Bug ID: 123979
           Summary: File marked as "modified" after printing
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.5.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: wd at denx.de

When I save a file and then print it, it is maked as "modified", and when I try
to close it, it prompts to "Save changes to document...".

This also happens when printing (as PDF) to a file.

However, it does NOT mark a file as changed when exporting it as PDF.

This is at least inconsequent and unexpected behaviour.

In general, I think it is wrong to consider a file has changed just when I
printed it - it causes all kinds of trouble.  For example, assume you just want
to print an existing document which has fields "DocInformation" -> "Modified"
-> "date" or "Time".  Then savin the file would actually MODIFY it, thus
overwriting the proginal file even if you only wanted to print another copy of
it.
