We use Primopdf to convert a spreadsheet to pdf.
I was wondering if there is a way to write code that will:
1) Current print area go to print to Primopdf
2) enter the name for the file from Cell C6
3) Send this file to Outlook
4) Enter the email address from cell M5

Thank You,
Michael
 

Excel Facts

Create a chart in one keystroke
Select the data and press Alt+F1 to insert a default chart. You can change the default chart to any chart type
This is what I have so far:

Code:
Sub PrintToPrimo()

    Application.ActivePrinter = "PrimoPDF on Ne00:"
    ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, ActivePrinter:= _
        "PrimoPDF on Ne00:", Collate:=True
    Application.ActivePrinter = "EPSON Stylus C86 Series on Ne02:"
End Sub

Any ideas to get me further??

Thank You,
Michael

Maybe save the file as another name in excel first. Then save as pdf. Then close the primo pdf program somehow. Then open attach the file to an email with that extention????

Code:
ActiveWorkbook.Save
    Path = "C:\Emailed Proposals\"
        On Error Resume Next
        ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
            Path & "Proposal" & _
        Str(Application.Range("O3").Value), FileFormat:=xlNormal _
            , Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, _
            CreateBackup:=False
        On Error GoTo 0
    Application.ActivePrinter = "PrimoPDF on Ne00:"
    ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, ActivePrinter:= _
        "PrimoPDF on Ne00:", Collate:=True
    Application.ActivePrinter = "EPSON Stylus C86 Series on Ne02:"
