Hello,
I am curious as to a code that can PDF all visible or selected worksheets to PDF (and save PDF to the same filepath as where the current excel workbook filepath is stored) and with the same name as the excel workbook. I would then like to attach the PDF as an email for a little extra step.
I was able to find this code and it works for the most part minus the naming of the PDF is named to the active sheet and then the attachment in Outlook is a pdf from google chrome and not adobe?
