Partial variable in file name

Post by awells12 »

I have added a product version variable after the product name in the output file name for my PDF target and have selected a "12.10.16121" variable in the Variables tab of the target. However, when I build the target, the product version in the output file name reads "12.10" only. I do not have a "12.10" variable so I don't believe it is looking at the wrong variable. Also, I've tried shortening the product name in case there is a character limit and that didn't work either. Why is only part of the variable being used?

Hi there,

I saw another topic about this yesterday.

Take a look here for the suggested workaround:

Adding the .pdf extension to the filename did the trick. Thanks!
