How to set "print to file" to a default filename
- From: "fake name" <fake@xxxxxxxxx>

To whomever has the inclination:
Some of my users have a need to print text to a file, and I wish to either:
1. have the default filename set into the "Print to file" dialogue box.
2. have the "Print to file" system automagically save the file without
prompting the user at all.
I'll be using some other processes to take care of the possibility of prints
overwriting earlier print files.
I found in the registry:
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Devices\Generic / Text Only" = "winspool,FILE:"
I am uncertain as to what this key does, but I am thinking that this key may
be related in some way. I'm not familiar enough with the windows printing
system to feel bold enough to edit registry keys that _seem_ related.
Thank you so much.
Dustin
