Your PDF viewing application may be the limiting factor here. Can you open the file directly from the application?

Yes, when i open from windows explorer it works fine. But from XY it is not working. I am using Foxit PDF reader if you know any settings there.

Actually we have to arrange like this our company's record. Looking for solution in foxit reader may be because adobe works fine with it.

The error message comes from Foxit. Looks like it cannot handle overlong filenames. Not XYplorer's problem :whistle:
