Output of file does not include original filename even when REDMON_DOCNAME_FILE has been specified

Hi,

Firstly great program, and thankyou for maintaining it.

I am having a problem with the Auto-Save option, it doesnt seem to be saving the files as their original file name. When we print a website via IE which has filename called T0000067237.xml for example, the output only has T.tif in the saved directory.

I have set the "Add filename-token" to be

Is this a bug where numbers are stripped from the filename?

Is there any solution to this as its the only thing that is stopping me from using this software, we definately need to preserve the original filename.

Regards,

Hi,

Has anyone got any suggestions to fixing this issue?

 I am having the same problem.  does not always produce the full name of the file, or the title, or whatever. I cannot reliably predict the output of this token. 

I will use the same settings, the same version of PDFCreator, and print the same file from two different versions of AutoCAD running on different computers: one will produce the full name of the file, and the other will produce shortened filenames. 

I think this might have something to do with the application that is sending the data to the printer. 

I have identified this as an issue with AutoCAD versions 2007-2008. PDF Creator and RedMon are functioning just fine. 

Option 1) Rename the layer or sheet with a "." character at the end

Option 2) Use REDMON_DOCNAME as the replacement string for the filename instead, and then pass REDMON_DOCNAME_PATH as an argument to a script that renames the file by replace(filename, REDMON_DOCNAME_PATH, "")

Do you have this problems with newer AutoCad version? And with newer PDF Creator?

Hi,

REDMON tokens no longer exists in current PDFCreator versions, but as far as i know the " or (if supported by the printing application) tokens work for this.

Best regards,
