Question

trying to write to a pdf in CF 8

I have been overwriting a pdf just fine in MX7, but when I move to CF 8, the file is not being updated. There seems to be commentary "out there" about possible issues in moving to 8, but anything I apply is not working. Two of the things I have tried are commenting the <cfdocumentitem> and fully qualifying the database elements I use. Suggestions and help would be greatly appreciated.

I have not had any problem at all over writing a pdf with:
<cfdocument format="pdf" filename="c:\TestPDF.pdf" overwrite="yes">
<insert what you want on your pdf here>
</cfdocument>

using overwrite="yes" in the cfdocument tag.
