Hi Russ,

Well it works for me.

I have to do the following:

With the document open,

Tools>Options>User 
        Change user name information

        Close the options dialog

File>Properties

        With the checkbox 'Apply User Data' ticked,
        click the RESET button

Close the properties editor

File>Export to PDF
        I'm exporting as PDF 1.5, picks the name change up 
        every time.

-Using LibO 3.5.2 / Ubuntu BTW
