Re: ACS Spooled file download - Text vs PDF

I agree that adding another step would be bad. BUT if I could right click on the thing and select txt there instead of just dragging it and getting a PDF. They already have options for Download and View so adding 'download as txt' seems reasonable.

I will RFE.

I like not getting a prompt every time asking me if I want PDF, Text, etc.
Therefore I wouldn't want the default download changed. Perhaps a
"download with prompt" option added. The prompt could also ask you for
your download directory.
I wonder what tool IBM uses which prefers text over pdf. I have the same
issue.

All these nice tools sure beat the snot out of CPYSPLF and then
downloading that though. Talk about stone knives and bearskins.
