Try this Frank
locate the file io.pl
on my Ubuntu system it is in /usr/share/ledgersmb/bin
copy it to the bin/custom directory
cd /usr/share/ledgersmb/bin
cp io.pl custom/
open custom/io.pl in a text editor (vi, nano, gedit, emacs)
find the line that says
$format =~ s/(<option value="\Q$form->{format}\E")/$1 selected/;
and change it to
$format =~ s/(<option value="pdf")/$1 selected/;
then find the line that says
$media =~ s/(<option value="\Q$form->{media}\E")/$1 selected/;
and change it to
$media =~ s/(<option value="screen")/$1 selected/;
I had difficulty figuring where $form->{format} was initialized so I'm
not sure if this change will have detrimental effects and I have not
tested this in production but I think it does as you require.
