            Bug ID: 127543
           Summary: FILESAVE: Save a Copy seems to be missing in later
                    versions of Writer
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.7.1 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: dhorton668 at gmail.com

Description:
In previous versions of Writer, before the tabbed menu was standard, there was
a selection under the File menu for Save a Copy.  This seems to have
disappeared in recent times.  I would like to request an enhancement for its
return.  Here's why:  Save a Copy is an incredibly useful feature when
submitting manuscripts to publishers.  Many times publishers will ask for
submissions in RTF or DOCX format.  Save a Copy allows me to keep my original
document in ODF and just generate RTFs as needed.  The alternative of using
Save As will change the format in the current window.  I then run the risk of
making changes in a format that I do not want to keep as my original document.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a new Writer Document
2. Click the File tab
3. Notice that Save a Copy is missing and cry

Actual Results:
Save a Copy is missing from the selections.

Expected Results:
Save a Copy would be available to select.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
This feature was available in previous versions, before the tabbed menu.
