Frustrating Paper Sizes Naming in PrintFab Toolbox!

Postby atfix » Wed Dec 07, 2011 3:33 am

How come I am unable to name or rename any of the custom paper sizes I create in the PrintFab tool box? :( The dialog box allows me to highlight the name and change it but when I exit the toolbox the name defaults back to "new format.2" or new format.3, 4, 5, etc.?? :evil: Example below of the printfab dialog box with non-descript generic printfab names.

Hello atfix,

renaming paper formats should normally work. I just found out that the new names are not saved if you just changed the name and pressed the "OK" button without pressing the "enter" key or selecting any other text field in the menu before. Can you please check if your renamed formats keep the new names if you pressed "enter" on the keyboard before leaving the dialog?

Thank you. Yes, if I press the "return" key after entering my new custom paper name, (BEFORE) clicking the "Done" button on the PrintFab Toolbox, it saves the new name. I Don't think this is very intuitive. Most people wouldn't automatically know this since these steps are not outlined in the manual.

It would be a good idea for you to add this instruction to your PDF manual. IMO. Thanks for clearing this up for me.

Regards,
