Error when storing a pdf file with TCPDF

ChronoForms v8

Good evening, when trying to "store" a pdf i get the following error: 

Warning: fopen(): Remote host file access not supported, file://home/mhd-01/www.miosito.it/htdocs/components/com_chronoforms8/files/test.pdf in /home/mhd-01/www.miosito.it/htdocs/administrator/components/com_chronoforms8/libs/tcpdf/include/tcpdf_static.php on line 1811

I don't know what to do now. I simply want to attach a pdf with the data of the form to the email submitted, I think this is the only way: store the pdf and then attach it to the mail. Is there any other method? Thank you.

I found a solution to my problem: if I prefix a "/" all works.

In the "Storage path" the default string is: "{path:front}/files/test.pdf". If I write "/{path:front}/files/test.pdf", I get rid of the error and the file is correctly stored into the path.

I hope this is a correct and "robust" solution.
