Hi guys,
Thanks for your input!
Of course you're both right about Windows file path length. In fact I'm not having any problem with that I do my best to keep folder structure organized and short. This discussion started with different topic - corruption of pdf's exported to a long path and I've only suggested a possible reason for it.
Perhaps I should've created different post for my own subject since my issue concerns working on files located for example on shared folders, where on different PC's these files may have different root paths (which I know isn't the best practice, but for the sake of discussion let's agree that it happens). External drawings or publisher paths in ArchiCAD project file could use relative paths, thus allowing the user to avoid the cumbersome process of updating external drawings.
Cheers,
Łukasz
P.S. On a side note - while writing this post I wanted to check how things are working in Teamwork, and boy, I had a REVELATION. Little did I know that you could use IP address for External Drawings AND Publisher paths, however the issue with corrupted pdf's appears again, even with shortest path possible (\\192.168.88.88\d\). I get 0 kBs, even though in ArchiCAD I can see it's proper size. I've also noticed that for a split second even the Windows Explorer shows the file size correctly after file creation, but then it just goes to zero again - perhaps that is a trail with witch to start when trying to find a solution for it
There is some problem with the publisher and file naming I guess (or it just doesn't like some people - I've heard machines tend to do that)
