changing file name on export to pdf
February 06, 2011, 03:36:37 pm
How can I change the name of the pdf on export?  Icould do this in 3.1.3 easily but not in 3.3.3 I can't find the source code? 
Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm.

Hello Markimus, 

There are 2 ways to go about this, The first one involves exports using a report. In this case, the name of the report is always going to be the title of your report.pdf. If you want to rem=name your pdf here, just change the title of your report under the create report section

When it comes to exporting contacts, the easiest way is selecting open rather than saving the file. Now save as, and rename it using the file name field.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!
Jason
