I noticed that destination for Print to PDF always reverts to destination where Rhino file is saved and never remembers the last used destination as it should.
Please fix! Thanks.

If you close Rhino and start a new session, it should change.
If you print the same file, or open another file without closing Rhino, and run Print again, it should ārememberā the file location.
Thatās the behavior Iām seeing here.
I checked just now.
Not what I see here.Closed Rhino, opened it again. Print always goes to the rhino file location.
Imagine the situation were thereās one rhino file and you need to print 10 PDFās in one location and then 10 others in another location.
It shouldnāt be saved by session, but by last print option.

Closing and restarting Rhino will reset the current folder to the file location.
I open the rhino file
Print first PDF in a custom location.
Print second PDF - custom location is not saved from the first PDF print.

Same here - it does not remember the location.

I am having the same issue.
Even within the same session, the print location always reverts to the Rhino file location instead of the ālast printedā location where I would like it to be.
Has anyone resolved it?

Please make sure youāre using the newest service release of Rhino 8. Today that is version 8.6.
Same problem here. Updated to the last version (8.6.24101.5001).
It works with Adobe PDF but that one takes ages to print and screws with fonts.
ItĀ“s very annoying because I am doing a lot of printing during the day and every time I have to move to the right location.
Hello,
Just updated today the latest build (8.8.24138.16021, 2024-05-17) and the problem still persistsā¦ Is there a fix yet? Loosing so much timeā¦
thanks
@q.andreotti I added a fix for this that should roll out with the final 8.8. Rhino PDF should now open to whatever the OS says was the last used directory. Iād imagine that the next 8.8 you install will have this fix included. RH-81893
Hello,
Updated Rhino 8 twice since your post, nothing changedā¦ I keep having to go manually to the right folder for every page I print.
I have Version 8 SR8
(8.8.24149.15001, 2024-05-28)

Am I the only one for whom the problem persists?

I just downloaded the latest Service Release Candidate today
8 SR9 (8.9.24171.3001, 2024-06-19)
And this is still an issue.
When a 3dm file has been saved, Rhino PDF will always direct to the file location.
Curiously I just noticed that if I open a new file and print without saving the 3dm, then Rhino PDF will actually direct to the ālast usedā location. But as soon as the 3dm is saved, printing will then go to that location instead.
Is there any news on a fix?
Thanks

Not only it does not remember the print location, but it also doesnāt remember the last used print size. It reverts on A4 for each printā¦
Please fix this issue soon. We run a lab with 6 Laser cutters sending files though Rhino8. Having to explain how to connect to the cutters each time for every student is hindering our output.

Stumbled over the same Problem, i would appreciate this fix, especially with the folder location!
I have the same problem! Any update?
SR10 should have several fixes for physical printer settings.
In terms of last folder can you give me your exact steps of where the save location isnt remembered.
Make a Rhino file in C:\myfile.3dm and save it.
Print a first PDF in a custom location, for example C:\Desktop. (It could be a window from top view)
Then print a second PDF: you will see that the location will be C:\ insetad of C:\Desktop
Thatās because Rhino doesnāt remeber the location of the last saved PDF
Thanks, this turns out to be feature request that was implemented. Iāve moved that behavior off to a command option and reverted the default behavior back to letting the OS recall the previous path. Iāve just pushed the fix in and it should appear in 8.11. RH-83225
