After upgrading a user from version 0.9.8 to 1.2.1 we have learned that the auto-save feature for no longer works. In the older version of PDFCreator this variable worked fine for saving the pdf to the original source path, but the newer version does not work. I enabled logging and this is what I get in 1.2.1.

I used the same settings for auto-save in both versions. Please correct this in the newer version or provide an option to automatically save into the same folder as the file that you are printing.
