PrintWriter out - Changing location of output files

Hi!

This func writes output files in the where input files are, but I am trying to create output folder for output files upper dir and place all output files there. Any ideas?
BTW, Does ‘out’ write output files current dir?

Thanks in advance,

private void saveHeader(File file, String header, int length) {
            if (debug)
                  System.out.println(header);
            PrintWriter out;
            try {
                  File outf = new File(getOutputPath(file));//with filename.hdr
                  System.out.println("outf: " + outf);
                  out = new PrintWriter(new FileWriter(outf));
            } catch (NullPointerException ex) {
                  System.out.println("File Not Found ...");
                  ex.printStackTrace();
                  return;
            } catch (Exception ex) {
                  System.err.println("Error in File Name ...");
                  ex.printStackTrace();
                  return;
            }

            out.print(header);
            out.close();

            
            try {
                  System.out.println("***\nSuccessfully Wrote:\n" +
                  getOutputPath(file) + "\nwith " + length + " slices in directory.\n");
            } catch (Exception ex) {}
