"Save As Type" [pull down menu - bottom of Save window]

A Portable Document format window will open, edit the options - press "OK"

IMHO it is better to recommend 'File > Save a Copy...' as "Portable Format (*.pdf)": the SVG document stays open in the current window and is not replaced by the PDF file (which can be confusing - Inkscape's native format is SVG, even though it can edit imported (foreign) PDF files it is best to work in the SVG format and only export (Save a Copy) to other not-native formats like PDF or EPS if you create the drawing yourself in Inkscape). The PDF file is directly stored to disk in the location chosen by the user.

Can you help with this problem?
