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 -- Robo |

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 -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Robo wrote: Thanks Doug, That's a big help See the article "How to do a mail merge to the printer using VBA, without displaying the Print dialog" at: http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/MailMe...PrintrWVBA.htm -- Hope this helps.

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. -- Hope this helps.

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 -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Doug Robbins - Word MVP wrote: 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.

True - except that he is using 2000. I guess you could use a catalog merge
to create a table with the required field names and then iterate through that table to get the name to pass to PrimoPDF as your macro prints each Section of the document created by executing the merge to a new document. -- Hope this helps.

I am not convinced PrimoPDF is that flexible. It doesn't appear designed to
be automated. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Doug Robbins - Word MVP wrote: True - except that he is using 2000.

Hi Graham,
You're right, that is the one where you have to pay to get the Developer Extensions that would be necessary to allow you to do this. I remember it now from when I was developing the add-in. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
