I cannot and never have been, able to open a file that has been previously saved to hard disk by choosing the print to file option in the print dialogue box. Firefox displays gooblygook even though the file name is an html, Windows Notepad crashes, MS Excel does not recognise the file type. MS Word displays goobblys also when the file has no filename extension.

If you use print to file then you get a file that is meant to be send to a printer and that file has all kind of formatting code for that specific printer.

Opening such a file in Firefox or a text editor can only work if you use a text only printer to print the file to, so make sure that such a printer is installed and selected.

Thanks for the info. Very enlightening. I won't bother to use that again then.
