pdf creation - errors - the fix
Hopefully this may help others in the future.
I initially encountered an error that prevented me from creating PDF files. Following a suggestion to reinstall the PDF driver, I ran into a different issue. When attempting to email or save a document as a PDF, I received the following recurring error message:
The file you specified cannot be opened. Make sure that it is not currently being used by another program or a read-only file.
The Windows error was 'The file exists.'.
File: C:\ProgramData\Intuit\Reckon Accounts v34\QBPRINT.QBP
While I could get the function to work by clicking "OK" on the error prompt several times, it was not a permanent solution.
To fix this, I navigated to the file path shown in the error and deleted the QBPRINT.QBP file. This action completely resolved the problem, and the error no longer occurs.
