I think creating a PDF using Print uses a system component (i.e., some
Windows or third-party software creates the PDF).
But since exporting a PDF works for me, I'm not sure why you're having
difficulties. Was there a PDF attached (temp.pdf) to my prior reply, and
were you able to open it? That might give us a clue.
Also, I assume this behavior stays consistent across system reboots? It
seems like the first step in trouble-shooting problems with
Windows-based software is to reboot the computer.

I will try again, Alan.
On the PDF issue, I was trying to export the PDF through the Export
option. When I use the print file option to create the PDF – it works
fine. This issue is resolved.
Thank you, Alan.
Take care,
John

What, exactly, are you doing?
I took the syntax from the PSPP manual page on Temporary
(https://www.gnu.org/software/pspp/manual/html_node/TEMPORARY.html),
opened a new syntax window, pasted that syntax. Ran it. Selected
"Export..." on the output window and saved it to the attached PDF (I'm
assuming I can send a PDF...).
And I have no trouble opening it.
I'm using Windows 10 and PSPP version GNU pspp 1.5.3-g797d4c
BTW, this output suggests that TEMPORARY is operating as expected in
the version of PSPP I'm using.

Hi,
Every time I create PDF files in PSPP, I have issues.
Specifically, after the file is created, I try to open the file I
get a PDF 114 error message. I tried reinstalling my Adobe
Acrobat DC and PSPP – neither action worked. I also tried to
delete the “Advanced Metadata” option in “properties –
description” – to no avail.
Take care,
John
