Version: 1.9.7 (using KDE 3.5.7 "release 10.1" , openSUSE ) Compiler: Target: i586-suse-linux OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.18.8-0.3-default Hi! To reproduce Open a file from sftp://server/directory/filename. (I used Kivio) Print - "Send/Mail as PDF file" tries to write to /directory/filename which usually does not exists. As the PDF (and PS) files are temporary files, they should go into /tmp/kde-<username>/filename.pdf or similar and should be eventually removed.
Are you really talking about KMail here? Where do I find Print->Send/Mail as PDF file ? This seems to be either a bug in the print subsystem, the sftp KIO slave or the application you are using.
Are you really talking about KMail here? No! But as I can "Print to File PDF" without problems I think its the process which attaches the pdf as attachment
I'll reassign to kdeprint, I guess this is not a KMail problem.
I can't reproduce. You need to give more details. I tried to print from kate a file opened through fish:/ and it works. In fact, the temporary pdf file that kprinter creates is configurable (manually, at print time, by the user) and is by default $HOME/print.pdf Please, come back with a precise error description.
Sure I can change the destination of print.pdf manually. Now I tried some other applications * opening a *.odt with kword - same problem * opening a *.csv with kwrite - it works as mentionend in http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=146397#c4 IMHO it looks like some apps have some sort of memory or handle this cyas differently.
could it be that koffice does something different?
KDEPrint is obsolete, unmaintained and will never be revived. Closing all open bugs.
