Existing programs D2007 (compiled Windows 7 and also compiled on Windows 8.1)
have hit a problem with printing – I use the Rave Reports printing engine to
print, either to PDF format (using one of the Rave components) or to a virtual
PDF writer printer as is common practice to get PDF output
Neither is working on Windows 8.1 – I get an exception “invalid filename” which
I am trying to track down. The filename and folder is not the issue, nor
permissions. So far the only thing I have thought is that the programs are 32
bit, and is there an issue accessing printing printing sub-system on 64 bit
Windows?
Anyone struck this or have any ideas?
BTW Windows 8.1 is a decided improvement to Windows 8 – start menu gets some of
the way back to the good functionality of the Windows 7 start menu which they
had just about perfect. Some things in Windows 8.1 are an improvement – the
instant search actually finds the item you are looking for as the default
usually. Some things are just strangely broken – I cannot associate some
programs with extensions (it looks like only installed programs can be
associated), there is no place to manage wireless networks except at the
command line, and try finding the off switch. And the way the charm bar keeps
popping out when I move the mouse anytime to the left. Oh and its actually
Windows 6.3.
