Hi there

I am creating a "SAVE" button in word which will save the form in "pdf" format.

Can anyone please help me in this matter.

It's probably not so simple as that, because you're in fact "printing"
a document, and you need to specify the folder to keep it in. Do you
realize that you can just do Ctrl-P (or click the Print button), and
in the Print dialog, choose "Adobe PDF" as the printer to use? Word
will then offer to save it in the last folder you saved a pdf to,
which may or may not be the right folder for the new document.

I did once try to use the Adobe tab (in Word2007), and it messed up
the pdf -- miscellaneous characters were inserted in the result in
place of certain control characters (I think ones that set R-to-L and
L-to-R direction).

Then one day Word announced a "serious problem" (or something like
that) in connection with the Adobe interface and asked permission to
deactivate the connection. I no longer have the Adobe tab on the
Ribbon, and I have no trouble making pdf's out of the Print dialog.
