You have been subscribed to a public bug: Not sure what package this bug should be filed against, but I observed the following behaviour on my trusty box.
Open a page in firefox for example or some other document you'd like to print to a PDF. Ctrl+P to print. Select "Print to file". Navigate to the place you would to save to, let's say this was "/tmp/" for simplicity of demonstartion. Make sure there is a directory called /tmp/test.pdf (I know this is silly, but it actually happens quite often accidentally by how selecting a folder and file name are presented in these dialogs). Save the file now as test.pdf. You should receive a warning now that /tmp/test.pdf already exists (the directory) and whether you want to overwrite it. Choose Yes. You'd expect the file to be created now, but actually that is not the case. ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Tags: bot-comment trusty -- "Print to file" silently fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1490244 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
