Description udippel 2002-05-18 04:48:32 UTC
Somewhat related to 3015. In my opinion *of course* the PDF-converter should use
the filename, not the title. Otherwise it overwrites previously created files
without asking (Is this another bug?). So far to 3015.
Here, because the title of all our docs is "Faculty for Computer Science and IT"
blablabla, I have to 'Print to File'. Then, the "wrong" (default) directory
comes up and the wrong 'File type' comes up (Postscript; which defies the
concept of PDF Converter). Here I have to click 'PDF' as 'File type'. Still not
enough of trouble, because the PDF-file will be created without extension. That
is, you have to enter '.pdf' manually in order to make it appear in the list of
files in Acrobat Reader. (Try it yourself if you don't get the point.)
Okay, here's the expected behaviour:
'File'->'Print...'->'PDF Converter'->'Print to file' should open the last
directory (remember the last directory!) and offer 'PDF' as 'File type'.
Finally, the extension '.pdf' should be added automatically to the 'File name'
entered by the user (if the user doesn't give any other).
