What happens if you remove the space from the file path? Does it still
behave the same?

Hello Camm,
Are they all printing the same text? If I recall correctly, Open Printing to
PDF is where the fail occurs when certain Unicode characters are encountered.
Emojis are one example where characters will render in a field but not print to
a PDF.

returning a message the OS or API passed back to it, and that message can be
less than helpful. For example, on copiers, when using StartTLS for encryption
in SMTP communications, the server may reject the connection f
The file path is selected by the user through a standard 'answer file

user selected for the file is writable, but tests of trying to save to a
read-only (non writable) folder on Windows results in a controlled error
