Distros: Arch Linux, Debian 12 Desktop Environment: LXQt (in Arch with Qt6-plugins) ReText v. 8.0.0

Actual behavior: When I check Customize > Use WebEngine (Chromium) and then run Export > PDF a blank page is produced.

Expected behavior: The program should compile a pdf document even if the option Use WebEngine is checked.

Workaround: Set useWebEngine to false.

For WebEngine PDF export to work, you need to refresh the preview panel first. For example, enable preview mode and disable again if you want.

Can you please check if it works for you?

Unexplicably, I cannot reproduce the alleged bug any more. It's working now. So let's close the issue.
