10.4: Prevent accidental overwriting of web receipts files
Authored by: Barney-15 on Feb 13, '07 10:05:39AM

This is all nice, and the recommendation to send in a bug report is good, but just do what scbarton said and put an alias to any folder in the PDF Services folder. Select that folder in the PDF dropdown and it will append a 2, 3, 4, etc as needed as new files with same name are added.

Really, the hint should be don't use Save to Web receipts folder, but instead, add an alias to any folder and save the web receipts there.

10.4: Prevent accidental overwriting of web receipts files

Actually the alias is not a good solution for a multi-user machine.

Adding the date and time to the automated PDF workflow is a good idea except it may be written over in a future update/bugfix.

Maybe making a copy and changing the name and disabling the real web-receipts button would also be wise.
