This problem has been affecting my usage of DEVONthink for over a year now.
It has been said that it’s because of network issues, but I don’t see how this can be an explanation.
I have a fast connection and this has happened hundreds of times, always with a consistent pattern, as @cyounkins described: the 1st time it saves as a bookmark, and only the 2nd time it saves as PDF.
But even if the cause could sometimes be network speed, I’m curious as to why it has been decided to implement a fallback that consists of saving a bookmark instead.
Why not a retry mechanism that honors the user request of saving as a PDF? It’s preferable to take a few extra seconds to finish the task but at least saving in the format that the user wants.
Could this issue be looked into, please?
