Inbuilt PDF Printer Driver filename based on database field name issues
I am trying to automate generation of PDF labels by providing the output filename within one of the database fields. I have selected the PDF printer and within File Location specified the destination folder and the filename based on a Database Field Name.

However, when I print I get the following error. The error doesn't match the entry I specified in the filename option, it seems to have added Template.LabelName.LabelName instead. This same error occurs no matter what database field I select (even though all fields are in the database).

Also, minor bug but if you use the right arrow to select the database field from a list and you have a lot of fields it doesn't work correctly. You have no option to scroll up and down between the large list of fields.

Not sure what you are asking, but Bartender comes with a Native PDF Export option. There is no driver required to be downloaded or installed.

As a work around to this issue, I have managed to achieve what was required by populating a hidden field on the label linked to the database field and making it a Named Data Source. You can then use the named data source in the File Name dialog instead of trying to get the database field options working.
