@schwieni: the latest revision 12307 of your branch seems to work as expected now (both with fresh default preferences file as well as with previously stored values in the preferences file from exporting to PDF via GUI).

Question:
We now have two command line switches affecting the file format version/level of an exported file, which work quite differently (PDF version requires a quoted string (because it contains a space), while PS level can be specified with a single unquoted numerical value).

Would it make sense to unify the values for the command line switches (e.g. PS levels: 2, 3; PDF versions: 1.4, 1.5), and thus getting rid of the extra quotes currently required for the literal PDF version strings taken from the GUI strings?

[Note: possibly (I don't really know) this conflicts with how optiongroups and enums are implemented (value, guitext)]
