Hi Mark, I filed it at: http://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=20656
I am still trying to build a recepie stack, but up to now it only happens with my live stack (see QC) Thanks Tiemo -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: use-livecode [mailto:use-livecode-boun...@lists.runrev.com] Im Auftrag von Mark Waddingham via use-livecode Gesendet: Donnerstag, 9.

Is there a workaround, > anything with Unicode conversion for the filename? If you could file a bug, that would be great. On Windows, the PDFPrinter has to do a little dance with files so that it passes a file that cairo will open correctly... However, it sounds like in your case (perhaps due to WIndows version, or formatting of the target drive) that the dance is not working correctly. We'll need to patch cairo a little to get this to work correctly I suspect. Warmest Regards, Mark. P.S. For now, if you output the PDF to a temp file in the same folder, then 'rename' then all should be well. -- Mark Waddingham ~ m...@livecode.com ~ http://www.livecode.com/ LiveCode: Everyone can create apps _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
