MIAMEX 186: Get PDFX File Spec

Added April 2016

xcall MIAMEX, MX_LASTPRTFIL, fspec

This function returns the file spec of the last file written by the PDFX printer driver.

Parameters

fspec  (String)  [out]

return the filespec

Currently this only works for PDFX5+, where it solves the problem of finding out the actual name of the PDF file which otherwise may be unknowable due to auto-numbering strategies in the driver, or due to the operator using the Save As dialog to rename the file. The feature may be expanded in the future to support other similar printing situations.
