As you can tell the code below prints of the sheets that contain data in them. The trouble im having is about half way down there are some print settings that are only working on the active sheet. Im unsure what to replace the active sheet with so it will apply all the printer settings listed to all pages that are needed.

Code:
Sub SaveSpecificToPDF()
    
Dim PdfFilename As Variant
Dim ws As Worksheet
'Dim TransNO As String
'Dim fName As String
Dim TransRange As String: TransRange = ActiveSheet.Range("B22").Text


'Old code segment
'fName = ActiveSheet.Range("B21").Value


PdfFilename = Application.GetSaveAsFilename( _
    InitialFileName:="GGS Transmittal ", _
    FileFilter:="PDF, *.pdf", _
    Title:="Save As PDF")


    For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
        ws.Visible = xlSheetVisible
        Next ws


'If statements to select number of sheets to print in transmittal
If ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Transmittal Generator").Range("F3") = IsEmpty("F3") Then
    MsgBox "Nothing to print. Verify Transmittal Generator has been properly filled out."
    Sheets(Array("Trans Sh 1", "Trans Sh 2", "Trans Sh 3", "Trans Sh 4", "Trans Sh 5", "Trans Sh 6", "Trans Sh 7", "Trans Sh 8", "Trans Sh 9", "Trans Sh 10", "Trans Sh 11", "Trans Sh 12")).Visible = xlSheetHidden
    Exit Sub
        
    ElseIf ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Transmittal Generator").Range("F17") = IsEmpty("F17") Then
    Sheets(Array("Trans Sh 1")).Select

Excel Facts

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
How about this:

Code:
Sub SaveSpecificToPDF()
    Dim PdfFilename As Variant
    Dim ws As Worksheet
    'Dim TransNO As String
    'Dim fName As String
    Dim TransRange As String: TransRange = ActiveSheet.Range("B22").Text

    For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
        ws.Visible = xlSheetVisible
    Next ws


    'If statements to select number of sheets to print in transmittal

        Exit Sub
    ElseIf ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Transmittal Generator").Range("F17") = IsEmpty("F17") Then
        Sheets(Array("Trans Sh 1")).Select

The problem Im having is that the margins are very wide. What part of the code could I edit to fix this issue? Thanks

Code:

Put this after the .PaperSize = xlPaperLetter code. Change the numbers to what you need.

Code:
.LeftMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0.2)
.RightMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0.25)
.TopMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0.5)
.BottomMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0.5)

Thank you for the help.
It is working good now except it is only applying the settings to the first sheet. Could you see where I need to edit? As you can probably tell It only prints the sheets that have data in a certain range.

Code:
Sub SaveSpecificToPDF()
    
Dim PdfFilename As Variant
Dim ws As Worksheet
'Dim TransNO As String
'Dim fName As String
Dim TransRange As String: TransRange = ActiveSheet.Range("B22").Text


'Old code segment
'fName = ActiveSheet.Range("B21").Value


PdfFilename = Application.GetSaveAsFilename( _
    InitialFileName:="GGS Transmittal ", _
    FileFilter:="PDF, *.pdf", _
    Title:="Save As PDF")


    For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
        ws.Visible = xlSheetVisible
        Next ws

Since you're printing pages 1 to 12 with the ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat command, I added a For loop to change the page setup of sheets 1 to 12.
Code:
Sub SaveSpecificToPDF()
Dim PdfFilename As Variant
Dim ws As Worksheet
'Dim TransNO As String
'Dim fName As String
Dim TransRange As String: TransRange = ActiveSheet.Range("B22").Text

'Old code segment
'fName = ActiveSheet.Range("B21").Value

PdfFilename = Application.GetSaveAsFilename( _
    InitialFileName:="GGS Transmittal ", _
    FileFilter:="PDF, *.pdf", _
    Title:="Save As PDF")

    For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
        ws.Visible = xlSheetVisible
    Next ws

'If statements to select number of sheets to print in transmittal
If ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Transmittal Generator").Range("F3") = IsEmpty("F3") Then
    MsgBox "Nothing to print. Verify Transmittal Generator has been properly filled out."
    Sheets(Array("Trans Sh 1", "Trans Sh 2", "Trans Sh 3", "Trans Sh 4", "Trans Sh 5", "Trans Sh 6", "Trans Sh 7", "Trans Sh 8", "Trans Sh 9", "Trans Sh 10", "Trans Sh 11", "Trans Sh 12")).Visible = xlSheetHidden
    Exit Sub

ElseIf ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Transmittal Generator").Range("F17") = IsEmpty("F17") Then
    Sheets(Array("Trans Sh 1")).Select

ElseIf ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Transmittal Generator").Range("F31") = IsEmpty("F31") Then
    Sheets(Array("Trans Sh 1", "Trans Sh 2")).Select

As you can probably tell It only prints the sheets that have data in a certain range.
I can't tell, actually. I'm not sure what the point is of selecting the different sheets with the If block if you're just exporting pages 1 to 12 anyway.

That's an oversight on my part. I had something else for the For loop involving ws in an earlier version. Change it to "Next i".
