I have an application that we have been using for years and we are migrating to Office 2003 and Adobe 6.0 from Office 2000 and Adobe 4.x and 5.x. In a nutshell, the application runs reports in Access via VBA which are outputted as PDF files.
OK.
Is this taking place as an unattended server operation or something on a desktop??
We have automated the process to the point where from code, we switch the printer to Adobe,
You mean to the PDFWriter printer, I suspect...
What I have.
I have turned off the prompt for file name, which is much easier the editing the registry now.
Given that PDFWriter is no longer part of Acrobat 6, I don't understand how you are doing that? With the new Adobe PDF printer??
My software does change the printers without a hitch.
To which printer??
Here is what I need.
If I can set the default filename and path, I easily can change the names after printing. Currently the end up in the My Documents folder with the name of the report. Does any one know the registry setting for this?
There is no programmatic control of the Adobe PDF printer beyond what is provided by the OS. You need to print to a Postscript file, then send that PS file to Distiller for PDF creation.
I have looked at AdobePDFMakerX.dll but I am not sure if it is the right tools to use and I have not been able to find any reference info on it. Is this the correct tool? Any references available?
PDFMakerX is NOT a developer tool - pretend it does not exist.
