Full Version: Re-Routing Output
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I have text2pdf installed on my PC running Windows XP Pro. I want to route all the outputted files onto our central document server. I can do this my mapping the destination folder as a "mapped drive" on my system, but this conflicts with some other software.

I want to be able to reference the document server either by its name or IP address.

If I use text2pdf test.txt z:\test.pdf (where "z" is the mapped folder PDFDocs on the document server), this works fine.

If I use text2pdf test.txt \\Docserver\C:\PDFDocs\test.pdf I get the error :
Cannot open output file \\Docserver\C:\PDFDocs\test.pdf.

I have checked that this is not a permissions issue as I have tried to reference a folder on my own PC and it still did not work.
Please advise as to how this can be resolved.

Many Thanks
Mike
Hi Mike,

I think you need to leave out the c:\ in your file name. Assuming here that z: is mapped to \\docserver\pdfdocs. So you probably want to try something like:
\\docserver\pdfdocs\test.pdf
