Summary0017032: Unreferenced bookmarks created with partial page PDF export
DescriptionIn multi-page document with many bookmarks, and exporting just some of the pages, all of the bookmarks are created in the PDF, instead of just the bookmarks on the exported pages. Example Scribus & PDF file have been uploaded.
Steps To Reproduce1) Create blank document, say 3 pages
2) Add sample text frame to each page, edit to add text, say "Bookmark 1"
3) Right-click text frame > PDF Options > check Is PDF Bookmark.
4) Repeat for each text
5) Export to PDF, choose only pages 1-2
6) Open PDF to see non-functional bookmark exists for page 3.
Additional InformationI've tested this with a blank document, but only tested exporting from page 1 to #. (I have not tested exporting just middle or end pages.) The problem exists in Scribus version 1.5.6.1 & 1.5.8

A secondary problem is that in using Bluebeam PDF editor v11.7, after deleting the bookmarks, the PDF is slightly corrupted. When the saved PDF is viewed in another PDF reader, the page count is truncated and some of the end pages don't seem to exist / can't be viewed. I think this may be because of a non-standard bookmark table in the document that Bluebeam doesn't correct. My work-around is to delete the extra bookmarks, add & delete a blank page and then the final PDF file works fine. This problem could have nothing to due with Scribus.
An example file "bookmark-test-corrupt.pdf" has been uploaded. When viewed with Sumatra PDF viewer, only 1 page exists. When viewed in Bluebeam, 2 pages exist.
