Hi
Do you know if there is a way to save a file (created with agk) on android sdcard or on the disk, on android ?

For image, I use PrintImage() which isn't great but it works.
But for text or zip, I don't know how to save , (not in the write folder, but at another place).

Do you know how I can save a txt file in internal or sd card on android ?

thank you

Maybe could use raw: at beginning of your path

Raw:c:\windows\etc etc etc

This is working for me on an android 12 device. In this case the program is saving to my phone's internal storage. If you used a "raw:" at the beginning of the path, have your slashes pointed in the right direction, and also have given your app write permissions but are still having trouble, then maybe there is a specific write rule you are violating. There are some restrictions listed in the following documentation page: https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage/shared/documents-files
