I am using Excel 2003 and I have the full version of Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard, not the Microsoft plugin. I am just trying to export a workbook to a PDF using VBA. I have tried the following:

Sheets(Array("Sheet1", "Sheet2", "Sheet3")).Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, Collate:=True

However, the problem is that I can't get it to include all sheets in the workbook in the SAME PDF. It was to make each spreadsheet a separate PDF file. Even without using VBA, I can't get it to work if I am just Printing it to the PDF Writer. I have selected Entire Workbook, All Active Sheets, All Selected Sheets, nothing works. Now if I just click the Adobe button on the toolbar, it works just fine, but again, I am trying to put this at the end of a sub routine so it finishes as a PDF. Any suggestions?

I have answered it myself. It has to do with the DPI settings of the printer. In order for this to save to one PDF file, DPI settings have to be the same for all worksheets in the workbook.
