Changing Name Of Pdf

Featured Replies

  • Newbies

Is it possible to change the name of the PDF file you created (on Ipad) prior to emailing it. Currently it names the pdf the name of the database. I need to be able to put the customer name in he pdf name prior to emailing. Any thoughts?

I'd use two variables: 1 for the path to save to & 1 for creating the new filename. To retrieve the desktop path of your device use get(documentspath)

In a script this could look like:

set variable ($$customer; value:table::yourcustomernamefield)

set variable ($$path; get(DocumentsPath & $$customer & ".pdf" )

Than to save the pdf:

Save records as PDF(restore;no dialog;"$$path";current record)

Than use your email script to send the mail with the name you gave to the pdf.

Should work... :)
