Stop exporter from assigning 80 as tempo everytime

For some reason this software decides to assign 80 as tempo to every exported piece ( https://i.imgur.com/ybCUQW6.png ), is it possible to completely avoid this from happening?

Esto si que es extraño. Generalmente, Pdf to Music, respeta el Tempi que contiene el Pdf importado.
De todas formas usted puede ajustarlo en la herramienta correspondiente que contiene el programa.

Does the general tempo of the score (Ctrl-Shift-T) match the setting of the initial tempo marking? I wonder if the wrong setting is being picked up during the conversion.

En realidad lo que marca Pdf to Music es el porcentaje del Tempo (100%) del original. Pdf to Music no es un editor propiamente dicho. Puede variar el tempo de reproducción a gusto pero es en porcentaje. La signatura es la que viene en el documento y en primera instancia, Pdf to Music respeta ese porcentaje de valor (100%). Por eso, cuando abre un documento, SIEMPRE Pdf to Music señalará 100. Se refiere al %. Respetando la velocidad del Tempo original.
Esto es lo que creo. Si estoy equivocado, que alguien me corrija.

I have also noticed the tempo being generally on 80.
Obviously, Pdf2M can only provide data when it finds it somewhere.
If there is nothing on the score, it cannot do anything else than will taking a default.
There are literal tempo indications, such as Andante or Presto, which in theory could serve as a base. But this is text to analyze, and I don't think it does that. Anyway it would never be complete, there are so many variations and languages possible.
The coded indication is generally in the form "quarter note symbol", "equal sign", number.
I have seen cases where this was interpreted correctly, as a local change to the general tempo of 80.
Yesterday, I checked with a very clearly marked setting in an HA-generated PDF, (quarter = 100) but translated that simply as characters, with the a "d" for the quarter note, letter "o" for the two zeroes, and nothing for the equal sign or the "1".
I think Pdf2M could do better. I have older versions somewhere, and will see if it was better in the past.
As far as my expectations are concerned, I essentially expect 1. a correct transcription of the notes and rests, including the piano staves.
2. a good approximation of the lyrics, but except when it's Japanese or Arabic, they are quite easy to correct.
3. a good approximation of slurs. This is what I'm missing most for the time being, but I understand it's not trivial.
