Export on Mac to PDF-- Overwrite file
-
With a lone OK dialog does pressing ESC or something similar == Cancel ?
If not then a Trimble-Layout-MAC-guy needs to get working fast...
-
No, esc or command-"." doesn't help.

ha.. maybe but i tried quite a few keystrokes and could get no response other than hiding the app (and i didn't know what i did because i was just randomly hitting keys.. i thought i broke something at first
) -

oh. weird. I thought I updated my laptop already (which that screenshot is from) but I guess not.. (and I didn't know what the latest version # of layout was)
I'll try it later today to see if it solves.
but it looks as though SUteam has already fixed this bug though. -
confirmed.. updated to 3.168 and i now have yes/no options.
-
in my case, what I get is a cancel/replace alternative. I am on lion and my layout is the latest.

yeah, that's how it should be anyway.. that's the standard.. (with the yes/no.. you have to read what you're agreeing to first but with cancel/replace, it gets concisely to the point just on the buttons themselves)
regardless, the original topic is about PDF export from layout as opposed to saving .layout files.

jeff,
this is what I did but I gave it on purpose the same name as an existing file so that this dialogue would appear.

right.. i see that... but you're still doing .layout files as opposed to .pdf
i think if you export a .pdf file named edson.pdf... then try it again, you'll get the yes or no dialog
(but on previous versions, you'd only get the OK or OK dialog
) -
now I exported a pdf and got the same choices as before.

I saw you are using Adobe, gave same result as you when I used Adobe.
I think Jeff and I using Preview. -

what the?? now that is weird..
that's how it's supposed to work..
what are you doing differently or what's different on your system ?? (just asking myself in general.. but if you happen to know the answer, please say it )[edit.. oh.. i see wind bourne has figured out a difference.. thanks

despite the different wording I suppose this is resolved. If you have this problem, try updating. Might save a headache or consternation.
