Strange Frame to PDF problem

[Art Campbell]

In addition to never using spaces... I'm remembering that it isn't the
file name itself, but the total number of characters in the path
that's the problem. I'm thinking that the limitation was 256
characters total, but that could just be the number that's popping out
of the grey cells today....
