Print to .pdf - a script to auto generate filename??

Featured Replies

Is it possible to automatically generate a filename using Script Parameters or another script step?

I have a co-worker that prints a found set of records each week. Each record has to be created as a separate .pdf.

I have created a script that accomplishes this but it would save her time if the filenames could be automatically created using existing field data.

Thanks.

If you use Save as PDF and not Print[]

Then:

Use script variables, they work for me. But you have to have the path to the file and everything right.

If not, I don't think so, however, I'm not certain.

I have not used script variables before so I'm not sure how to fill out the fields. I have a book for FM7 and it has most of the same info used in 8 except for this, of course!

Could you point me to a good place to do a little reading on script variables?
