I'm trying to save as PDF from Techwriter on a Raspberry
Pi 3. When I do so, the computer hangs, and while I can
regain control by pressing Alt-Break that gives me a
zero-sized PDF. I'm using PrintPDF 1.10, TW 9.01 and
Printers 1.83??
Why use PrintPDF? Excellent though it is, TechWriter will
output its own PDF files. Menu over the document, hover
over the arrow next to Save and the PDF option is about
2/3rds of the way down the list.
If you have ButtonBar and WIBLI² installed, it's even
easier because you then have an icon in an attached pane
which gives quick access to a number of functions. You can
find them on the original CD in Extras -> Goodies.
Am I sufficiently current on all of those, and is there a
software combo known to work for PDF output on the RPi 3?
I don't mind paying to upgrade Techwriter, but I want to
check whether it would help.
I'm on the latest version (I think) - 9.12 dd 24 Sep 13,
but the save as PDF option has been available long before
that.
