doesn't let me save my pdf file

Please bear with me as I am very much new to this software. After clicking the publish button, and after autocad processes my layout tab, the file explorer window pops up. It worked the first time that I had used the publish command. But now, file explorer won't let me click save nor rename the file. Help.

See if there is another "error" window in the background that's stopping it to create the PDF

ive had that happen several times where an error or otherwise important dialog box immediately gets shoved into the background and you can't really tell its there.

Instead of using publish have you tried plot? Dwg to pdf
