As the title says I am currently looking for a macro that will allow me to save a word document as a pdf which uses the name of the current file as the save as name and that will place the file in this path...
Users/frontdesk2/Pictures/Scan Docs
I work for a doctors office and I am constantly importing hundreds of files per day to a database that pulls files from that location. So as I have been working on these I have found that I can add a command to the print functions pdf menu by editing the menu but when I assign that command a shortcut I have to actually go through the entire process of doing File+Print+Pdf+Save as Pdf then i have to select the folder and click save... doing this over and over again every day is tedious and aggravating so i have been trying to find a shortcut to do this with either adding a shortcut to the file menu or by creating a macro that will do each of these steps I have outlined but that I would only have to click once or press the shortcut once. Any help with this matter would be greatly appreciated. I have tried to do it with VBA in word but I don't know the language well enough to do this on my own. Thank you in advance for any help you guys can give me.
