Try to use this macro code

'' Create instance of PDFcreatore

'Set PDFCreator = CreateObject("PDFCreator.clsPDFCreator")

'PDFCreator.cOption("UseAutosave") = 1 // Enable autosave

'PDFCreator.cOption("UseAutosaveDirectory") = 1 // Use a specific save directory

'PDFCreator.cOption("AutosaveDirectory") = ActiveDocument.getVariable("TempPath").GetContent.String // Set autosave directory

'PDFCreator.cOption("AutosaveFormat") = 0 // Use PDF file type (.PDF extension)

'PDFCreator.cOption("AutosaveFilename") = "My PDF" // set the filename, optionally you can get the Caption of the object and use it as Filename

'PDFCreator.cPrinterStop = FALSE

'// Export to PDF File

'ActiveDocument.PrintDocReport ReportID, "PDFCreator"

sub printRP01

printReportPDF "E:\Testing.pdf"

ActiveDocument.GetApplication.Sleep 2000

ActiveDocument.PrintReport "RP02", "QlikviewPDF"

ActiveDocument.GetApplication.Sleep 10000

end sub

'===========================================================================

Function printReportPDF(pdfOutputFile)

Set WSHShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

WSHShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\QlikviewPDF\OutputFile", pdfOutputFile, "REG_SZ"

WSHShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\QlikviewPDF\BypassSaveAs", "1", "REG_SZ"

Set WSHShell = nothing

End function

Hi Mohit,

the first part of your macro is marked as a comment.

Does the macro start with "sub printRP01"?

kind regards

Hi,

Using code to deal with the PDF saving projects is too complicated for me. I wonder why not generate PDF files directly using some 3rd party PDF processors? Or you can convert other formats to PDF files as well. Btw, do you have any good suugestion about the relevant PDF toolkits? I want to look for a fine one which is totally manual and can be customized by users according to our own favors. Any suggestion will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Arron
