Not only the "current sheet", but all sheets.

Also some points to consider:
* This option creates a preview of the whole spreadsheet document as a PDF
document.
* And the resulting PDF will have pages with a number equal to the number of
the sheets in the document
* The pages of the resulting PDF will probably have different sizes (which
match the sizes of the corresponding sheets), and is not suitable for printing,
but only for viewing on screen to present a preview of the whole document

'Full-sheet export' sounds okay. 'Export entire sheet to one oversize page'
might be misleading because the resulting PDF pages might also be undersized.
(It depends entirely on the content of the corresponding sheet)
