TL:DR - Linux Version of GnuCash v3.4: "Print" and "Make PDF" now do the same thing on my new install. Do I need an extra plugin or something so that "Make PDF" saves directly to pdf without "printing" and generates a filename from the Invoice number and date? (like it used to for me )
Hi to all my "Gnu" friends, I recently needed to reinstall GnuCash on a fresh install of linux on my chromebook (I have been using GnuCash on my chromebook for about a year and a half) and I'm having some issues with the "Make PDF" feature. Previously if I clicked "Make Pdf" it would immediately open up a save to PDF dialog with the filename generated like this... Invoice-000125-07_13_2020.pdf ...and then I could append the file name like this... Invoice-000125-07_13_2020-Geoff-ZoomaxPart.pdf ...to make it more friendly. However on my new install, "Make Pdf" does the same thing as "Print", allowing me to print to file but with the default name of "output.pdf". I have tried to find a solution online and by tinkering for a few days now and I'm stuck. I thought maybe I was missing a dependency or something but I couldn't figure out what it might be. I knew that LibreOffice had a similar PDF export feature so I tried installing that. The "export as PDF" worked as expected but still not in GnuCash. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling GnuCash with LibreOffice installed but still no go. Has anyone experienced this issue and/or know what I need to do?
