A user defined copier definitely works, but I think that in the Document -- Settings dialog, there should be an additional section named "Files to copy", in which one can select files which should be also copied into the tmpbuf folder. This would make the whole process much easier to handle. Rainer > > -- > Manveru > jabber: manv...@manveru.pl > gg: 1624001 > http://www.manveru.pl > -- Rainer M.
