Default Save Mail Merge as .pdf

True - but would the OP want all the merged records in one PDF? I would have
thought this more of a task for the add-in

Hi Graham,

But if the merge is executed to a new document and then that new
document is printed (as the macro is doing), then there is only one
print job that may require user acknowledgement.

It is not going to overcome the fact that primoPDF appears to
require a user acknowledgement for each record, which can get very
wearing with a large merge

In Word 2000 I have the attached macro to send a merged document
to printer.
How can I send it directly to PrimoPDF without opening the print
dialog box?

With ActiveDocument.MailMerge
.Destination = wdSendToPrinter
.SuppressBlankLines = True
With .DataSource
.FirstRecord = wdDefaultFirstRecord
.LastRecord = wdDefaultLastRecord
End With
