No file is created, and no "Permission Denied" warning message occurs. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open any webpage. 2. Go to File->Print 3. Select PostScript/default and the "Print to File" checkbox, then print. 4. When prompted for the filename, select a directory where you don't have write permission (e.g. /). Actual Results: It goes through the motion of printing to file, but no file is created and no warning message occurs. Expected Results: The program should prompt the user immediately that permission is denied.
