I support: this is an anomaly and could be confusing to inexperienced users.
Only one of the six available PDF compression options is lossy and so requires a Quality setting: JPEG .
The others: None -- Fax -- Packbits -- LZW -- ZIP are all lossless so the Quality value entered is not used.
So yes, grayout if possible, alternatively possibly label 'JPEG Quality' as used for the TIFF compression options:
Also, could the PDF 'Fax' option please show whether it's Fax 3 or Fax 4, or better use 'CCITT G4' as in the above TIFF image?
