It's 00:41 here in Sweden, and I have an 08:00 meeting. I am off to bed. Perhaps somebody else can help now, otherwise I will be back tomorrow. I've never tried to get subprocess to run as part of a savefile dialog. Try building a tkinter app that takes a filename argument (somepostscript file you have lying around) and then push the button, in the same dir makes a pdf of your ps using subprocess. If that works, then see about getting save to run that subprocess as part of the save process. I am very curious about whether that can be done -- but first check that your subprocess is working, period. The wretched thing is slightly different between windows and linux, and even between different linuxes, so needing to fiddle a bit here is normal (and frustrating). So right now I cannot tell if your problem is 'save doesn't like it like that' or 'your subprocess isn't working'. But nothing in Tkinter likes 'Canevas' -- (which is great French but rotten English) you must have written Canvas in your code. Paste the real thing in next time, ok?
