Publish pod output directory choice

[LinSims]

I don't know who thought this was a good idea, but the Publish pod's insistence on creating a subdirectory of the selected directory in the Output Folder field is a PITA.

I want my output file to be saved to where I said to put it, not in someone else's idea of an appropriate storage location.

I would also like the option to set preferences in FM so that the Output Folder defaults to the directory holding the document being printed, not into an unwanted subdirectory in whatever the prior selection was.

And yes, I've just put in a Feature Request for this, because this is pants.

Yes, it's been a day and this idiocy is just adding to it. I'd rather use the Publish pod, it's faster. But I'm using File > Save as PDF because at least I know where the PDF file is going to be saved and have the opportunity to move it if I need to.

I totally agree and will upvote it.

If I recall correctly, I had requested this already, but 'did not make it' ... of course have voted!
