PDF conflicts fixed

Sales documents can be output as PDF files. The files can be easily processed on Mac and opened and processed in most PDF solutions. However, there were isolated problems with Adobe Acrobat and on Windows.

This has now been localized: There may be isolated objects on the FileMaker layout that do not allow a PDF file to be opened under Adobe Acrobat. This applies in particular to line objects.

The print layouts for sales documents have therefore been revised in the current version. Individual lines were replaced. For the Swiss payment slip, the perforation lines have been replaced by a background graphic. This seems to have solved all the problems for the time being.

Swiss QR Code

FrankCRM supports Swiss QR codes and has integrated a complete payment slip. However, anyone who has updated to MacOS 14 Sonoma has noticed significant problems. Although the QR codes were generated, they were often not saved back into the data records. Processing was interrupted. The phenomenon occurs under both FileMaker Pro 19 and 20 and is related to the update to MacOS 14 Sonoma. It seems that JavaScript is processed much more slowly in the web viewer.

A delay has been built into the HTML template for generating the QR code. Everything works as before.
