  Example:

  Close #255:

In the above example, the "@:" causes the PDF file to be created on the client, in the clients Current Directory in a subdirectory called "TempConvert". In the copy command, the "@:" at the beginning tells BR to get the file from the Client computer, and the fact that there is no "@:" on the second parameter of the copy command tells BR that you're copying the file up to the server.
