Hi,

We've run into a problem were PDFs, coming from a third party that supplies the PDFs with spaces a plusses in the names, returns a 404 when you try to view the property of a pdf with such characters. Is there anything you can do about this?

Example:

If a file is called: "name + name.pdf" then DW looks for "name     name.pdf".

Hi,

This is limitation of DW, the symbol (and some others) is prohibited for file name. Try to create new file or rename existing one with the symbol and you get notice about it is invalid. Probably, it can be renamed via system file manager(manually or somehow else) to exclude the symbols like this. I've created new TFS will fix showing appropriate notice to user instead of exception occurs.
