Hi



I have a problem saving form to a local directory c:\temp. I am using write document service and the path pattern in Input field is set to C:\temp\filename.pdf. Document variable is a doc var where the form is being stored. What wrong am i doing in this. The form is not saved in the above location.

Try to put C:/temp/filename.pdf.



Java doesn't like "\" and I'm not sure if we replace them.



If not, then maybe your form variable is empty. Can you use a ReadDocument and point to a PDF to make sure the variables contains something.

You can use the Variable Logger (under Foundation).

Are you seeing any errors in the server log? Your inputs seem to be right.
