Re: [SL] Printing and saving pdf in Windows

[Michael H. <mh...@it...>]

But are those executables locatable by SL at runtime?  I.e. is the  
executables' folder in the search path that SL "sees"?
    Just for the heck of it, since you already know where they're  
being called from, you could test this theory by hard-coding the full  
path into the script where it calls to those executables and see if  
it works.


Thanks,

Michael
