Programmatically change filename and path for PDFCreator

Hello,
I know that creating PDFs is a common question on the forum but I've yet to see someone with the same problem that I am encountering.  I'm following the example at http://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-4552#comment-12005.  I posted a question on this page but am posting again here for hopes of a faster response.
I am able to create a pdf of the test.txt file.  However, I am unable to change the path or filename.  No matter what I select the file is created with the name and path defined in the autosave options of PDFCreator.  Since the file is created, I know that the reference is correct.  It seems that the cOption invoke nodes are not working.  If I turn on autosave in the PDFcreator options, I am prompted with a save as window.  This means that my command to use auto-save (in the config subvi) is not working.  Likely, the autosavedirectory and autosavefilename are also not doing anything.
I'm at a loss because everything appears to be correct.  Any thoughts on what could be wrong?   (labview 8.6.1     PDFCreator 0.9)

Hello,
Have you tried downloading the latest version of PDF Creator? It looks as though it is at 1.0.1 now. If this is a problem with the ActiveX interface, it may be resolved in the latest version.

  • Given filename or path contains Unicode or double-byte characters.Retry using ASCII characters for filename and path What does this mean? it happen when I publish an OAM

    Given file name or path contains Unicode or double-byte characters. Retry using ASCII characters for filename and path
    What does this mean? It is happening when I try to publish an OAM for Dreamweaver.
    Also: How can I specify the browser in Edge Animate? It is just going wherever. Are there no Preferences for Edge Animate?
    BTW. Just call it Edge. Seriously. Do you call it Illustrator Draw? Photoshop Retouching?

    No, my file name is mainContent.oam
    My project name is mainContent.an
    This error happens when I try to import into Dreamweaver. Sorry, I wasn't clear on that earlier.
    I thought maybe it was because I had saved my image as a png. So re-saved as a svg, still get the error.
    DO I have a setting is Dreamweaver CC that is wrong? Should I try this in Dreamweaver CS6? I might try that next.
    Why is this program so difficult? I know Flash. I know After Effects. I can work the timeline part just great. It's always in the export that I have problems.
    On a MacPro, 10.7.
    Are you an Adobe person or just a nice helper?

  • Filename and path sizes and characters

    I am failing to load 4000+ tracks to my Ipod from my XP machine using Itunes 7.50.0.20. This is an Ipod Clickwheel 20GB. I want to load 17.86GB in the now empty Ipod. However it gets so far then stops saying there is not enough space.
    I wonder if am I getting the wrong message?
    Some of my tracks have very long filenames/paths e.g 124 charactere filenames and 213 character paths. I also have some filenames with " (double quote) in.
    Could this be the reason?
    If so what characters must I avoid and what size should the filename and paths be limited to?

    Filenames and paths are irrelevant. They are renamed on the iPod anyway.
    20 GB is not really 20. It is a rounded number all HD manufacturers use. Plus you lose some space due to formatting and the iPod software. There is also meta data for the songs which takes some space.

  • Trying to add filename and path in footer of Word doc and it only lets me "Convert to PDF"?

    I am running MS Office 03 and just installed Acrobat 9.0 Pro. When I try to insert the Filename and Path from the insert option of the footer properties, it only gives me the option to "Convert to PDF". I don't know why it's doing this, but it started after the install of Acrobat 9.0. What should I do?

      To get the path ... event.target.path;
    To get the file name .... event.target.documentFileName;

  • Add filename and path to Designer form footer.

    I am somewhat of a novice at creating forms in Livecycle designer and need help adding a filename and path to the footer of a form after clicking on the "save as' button.  I have not found any answers anyplace so help would be greatly appreciated ASAP. Thank you!!

    Create a field on your masterpage. Get rid of the caption, appearance=none and set as Protected. Also set your width to expand to fit. In the layout:ready event of your field, add this JavaScript:
    this.rawValue=event.target.path
    That should do it.

  • I am unable to change username and password for wifi network

    unable to change username and password for wifi network

    Thanks, this solved my problem. Network kept demanding username; I guess it's different from the computer ID I use. Whatever, it wasn't easy to find the network listed, but by trial and error, I found it, highlighted it, and pressed delete key. Now the network only asks for password, which I knew, and I'm on. Great advice. But why computer was configured to do that in the first place is why I prefer PC to my wife's inscrutable macbook pro.

  • Unable to Determine the Change Date and Time for records in infotype 2011

    Hi Everyone,
    We need to know on when the clock-in and clock-out records were interfaced to SAP in infotype 2011.
    The change date/time field in infotype 2011 is blank/not populated. Hence, we're unable to determine on when the clock-in records were updated in infotype 2011.
    It is not possible to get the audit logs for infotype 2011 as it is switched off.
    We found this table TEVEN and just the same thing, the field "change on" is blank.
    Kindly help us on how we can determine the change date and time for records in infotype 2011.

    Hi Prasad,
    Here's the scenario.
    On June 3, it was reported that staff's clock-in record on june 1, 7:00AM is missing in infotype 2011.
    However, when I checked infotype 2011, the record is there.
    So, they are now asking me on when this record was updated in infotype 2011 as they are thinking that there might be some delays in sending of the data to SAP.
    The created on and created at in table TEVEN shows the same, june 1, 7:00AM which seems to be not true as on june 3, it was reported to be missing.
    Can you help further on this?

  • How to get only the filename and extension for a text item?

    Suppose there is a non-database text item called :myfilename
    :myfilename := 'C:\SomeFolder\SomePath\myfile.doc';
    I would like to get the file name only without the full path,
    i.e. myfile.doc
    and the file extension, i.e. 'doc', 'bat', 'java', 'xhtml' etc., i.e. the last few chars from the right to the period.
    Any help is welcome.

    Thanks for the hints.
    I defined the non-database Text Item called FULLFILENAME and another two text items called FILE_NAME, FILE_EXTENSION. The following can extract the file extension,
    select substr(:FULLFILENAME,instr(:FULLFILENAME,'.')+1) into :FILE_EXTENSION from dual;
    e.g.
    :FULLFILENAME := 'C:\MyFolder\AnotherFolder\file.doc';
    FILE_EXTENSION becomes 'doc'
    but I would also like to extract only the filename without path into FILE_NAME,
    i.e. file.doc
    Please give more hints. Thanks.

  • CVP Language change (English and option for other Language)

    Hi,
         Currently in our IP IVR we give our callers the option to switch to spanish.  I want to do the same in CVP but I'm not sure how.
    I guess I could create an English page and a Spanish page so that if the callers enter the option for Spanish it would "move" the call to the Spanish page in which all prompts are Spanish.
    Currently, using IP IVR,  our English and Spanish prompts are name the same so we can just send the call back to the beginning and change the Language.
    Any ideas are appreciated.
    thanks

    I see three methods:
    1. Set the default audio path to something like: http:// address>/
    Create a session variable say Lang - Intial value "en-us"
    Prompt for Spanish. If they want that, reset Lang="es-es"
    All prompts in the application would be set as {Session.data.Lang}/app/my_application/foobar.wav
    2. In CVP7 you can start off with Default Audio Path = http:// address>/en-us/my_application/ and use the Application Modifier node to reset the default audio path for Spanish. All prompts would be a WAV file name like foobar.wav
    3. make the language selection a microapp - I always use microapps for such simple things - and pass the language in as a session variable which then flows through to the VXML application.
    I think what is holding you back is that you did not realize that what goes into an audio element as the WAV file can be a complete URL, or part of a URL that is appended to the Default Audio Path, and you can include Session Variables in this. There is a lot of flexibility here.

    Geoff
