Adobe PDF Writer Question

I developed a template not that long ago that did that. I know I had my
share of problems in developing it. I can take a look at it for you.
One thing I can suggest you look at is the mechanism by which Adobe PDF
Writer is invoked. In the template I developed, it was invoked by
printing the document to the "Acrobat Distiller" printer. That works
fine for Adobe Acrobat 6.0 and previous. However, starting with version
7.0, Adobe changed the name of the "printer" to "Adobe PDF". If you've
recently upgraded to a newer version of Acrobat, that could be the
culprit. The solution could be as simple as replacing "Acrobat
Distiller" in the macro with "Adobe PDF".
Best regards
Mike

Anybody know how to force the name of the file that
Adobe PDF Writer writes to? Our software
automatically writes information to a PDF, but we
can't have the Save As window popping up because it
will interfere with other processes. At one point we
had it working so that the window never came up and
the PDF was automatically generated to a specified
file, but the person who knew how to make that happen
doesn't work here anymore.
Thanks!
