Hi Rosanne,

> In my edition of Office 2010 the dialog for saving as a PDF does not have a

Actually there are two or more ways to save a pdf on MS word. one method you
did(Save As), other method is to open File>Save & Send>"Create PDF/XPS
Document" under FileType. With this method, you will get same dialog box with a
"Publish" button instead of "Save".

I tried again with Wine1.7.33 and new wine prefix(No native dll). Re-installed
Ms-Word 2010. Then tried to save a pdf. It saved. For normal setting, word is
creating pdfs.

However, when I changed the "options" from dialog box of save pdf(where we put
filename), it again says "File not found."
Open File>Save As. Change the "save as type" to pdf. Click on Options: select
ISO19005-1 (PDF/A) options and click OK. Then click on save or publish. There
is the error.

I am sorry I should have given full details before. Actually I was doing random
testing. So, I did not understand what happened when I posted the bug. But I
know now.

There is one or two more bugs. 
1)(I think related to this bug)Try sending a file as pdf. Go to File>Save &
Send>Send using Email>Send as pdf. Same "File not found" dialog box appears. 

2)(About this, I am not sure what happens when using Word on Windows, please
confirm) clicking other "Send & Save" options like "send as attachment" opens
Thunderbird compose message dialog box, but attaches nothing. shouldn't Word
attach the file too??? (I think, in linux, you will need an email program on
your computer. with signed on to some email account.)

Regards.
