Quick question Adam,when you are in the print to file screen does it
show "File:"? If I try it on mine, I can click on the box and it shows
where the file is being saved to. So in the "Print to file" view it's
to the left of "Output Format:" where you'd choose PDF etc.
I'm on Debian Bookworm with Evolution version 3.46.1-1 I believe there
is a flatpack version that is more recent than yours also.
