      @Dazmondo The first option "PDF File" should be working.
      Try disabling "Background Printing" in preferences.

        Would you recommend switching background printing back on?

          Yes, at least here it does not affect the output.

          Can you make a recording of the whole thing (with Separate checked). Including the part where the folder and file name for the output is selected.

            Vid grab: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1L8GPvPbDlN7sHjvoy_joJTQaFpOX5lY3/view?usp=sharing

            Note: The Test.pdf file on my desktop is a composite which produce great - also doing a find for TestA.pdf (the seps pdf produced in the vid grab) finds no match

            Thanks

              @Dazmondo All looks correct in the recording. But! there could be another issue.

              Do you have it through the App Store?

              This might be a bug the way file names are generated by VS, and the Mac App Store sandboxing.

                    @VectorStyler You should have a new email with a license for regular VS. If you are willing to try, this one is notarized (Apple) but not sandboxed.
