Hello Tom,
If you do a put member(1 of castlib "PDF").name
it will return the cast member name - but unfortunately
it is presently impossible to get the name of the PDF document
itself. If you name your cast member the same as your document,
that might be a work-around.
This functionality is expected to appear in the next version
of the Xtra.
Finally, due to memory issues, it is not recommended to even
store your PDF documents in a Director cast, but to place them
in an external folder and use the PDF Sprite to link to them!
Enjoy your day Lingoists!
-Warren.

Hi list
Why can't I get the name of a pdf castmember
I put
put the name of member 1 of castlib "pdf" which is certainly a pdfdocument.
I get the result 0 while it has the name "document.pdf"
What am i doing wrong?
