Sometimes when troubleshooting its best to move on to what works than to fight what wont work.
 
did you test a word doc instead of a pdf

I have tried both .doc and .jpg files before but Lynn has made it clear the DBA classic will only print .pdf's

Here is my two cents.
 
We couldn't print link documents. We solve our problem by moving the documents folder to:
 
X:\DBAMFG\LINKDOCS
 
Where X is the driver were your DBA is.
 
Is not a good idea to use long an complicate path names either. Keep it short and simple.

well I used to use classic and I recall we printed our word docs with it
 
however I just tried it and it wont work
 
pdf or doc  so I would say its broken
since all my stuff prints fine in EVO
 
I had the 1st linked doc printer,  I had it written by Ben many years ago.
 
I'm sure we used it with classic to print DOC files.
 
so Id say something is wrong

Kelloggs - That is how I currently have it set up Y: is our DBA drive. The linked image I'm attempting to print is Y:\IMGTest\test.pdf
 
Shadowcaster - I agree I think something is wrong too. Hopefully Lynn & Allen can help me fix it!

you could prove your links are good if they print in evo.
 
I would think that with all the little parts you sell that you would want all the pictures of them coming out on work orders, pick slips, sales orders, and po's. Along with manufacturing info to attach to the WO. EVO will do that.

Try inside the DBAMFG folder: Y:\DBAMFG\IMGTest\
It work for us....

Kelloggs - Our Y:\ drive is our DBAMFG folder shared as a drive from our server. The server has a DBAMFG folder that it shares as the Y:\ drive to the rest of our computers

maybe this will help someone who is having link issues
 
These are the settings I use for my links and thumbs
 
My DBAMFG directory is a mapped drive letter  K  
 
 
I use a default directory for my word docs  k:\prints\  not sure where you set this in classic
 
I use a separate directory for the thumbs  k:\thumbs\
 
so with thumbs I use the full path for the file name. K:\thumbs\filename.png
 
Classic settings

DBA Classic can only print PDFs and it is hard coded to call ACRORD32.EXE so you have to have the Adobe Acrobat reader installed and the path to the  reader needs to be in your environment path.  I tested yesterday and under those conditions it does still work.
