            Bug ID: 142594
           Summary: Save as TXT doesn't work correctly when "Track
                    changes" feature is enabled
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.3.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

I had a really big trouble in my work by an issue in LibreOffice 7.

I have a document with "Track changes" enabled. We need to export to txt our
documents to join in only one. LibreOffice doesn't have "export to txt" so we
use "save as" to save our document to txt.

However, far from a logical way of doing it, LibreOffice saves in TXT tracked
text too!!!! So finally, result was a big error cause we relied on LibreOffice
and don't re-read our exported text.

In resume: When LibreOffice save to TXT a document with "Track changes"
enabled, doesn't work properly and export modified/deleted/inserted text too. 

The logical way that user expect is that if user save a LibreOffice document to
a kind of document that have no that LibreOffice feature (like a TXT file),
LibreOffice should not try to "emulate" it in a weird way like described one.
