Description

The function opens the output file into which the PDF file should be written.
The PDF file must be created in memory if this function should be used. This is the case if you called DynaPDF.New without a file path.
It is strongly recommended to check with DynaPDF.HaveOpenDocument whether a PDF file is still in memory before calling this function.

If input and output files should be the same, please make sure you close the import file first with DynaPDF.CloseImportFile function.

This function requires a native path. Use Path.FileMakerPathToNativePath to convert a FileMaker path to a native path if required. If you like to have the user choose the path, you can use FileDialog functions.
For Server be aware that server has limited permissions and may not be able to access all files on a computer.
