Hi,

I have recorded a macro to print my worksheets to a PDF buts its forcing me
to create multiple PDF's. There are 6 worksheets I am saving and the output
is prompting / saving 3 PDF files. The first has 1 worksheet, the second has
4 worksheets, and the last has 1.

I would 'ACTUALLY' like all worksheets to be saved as 1 PDF. What would be
causing the addin to prompt for spearate files here? I am using Excel 2000
SP3 and Acrobat v5.0.10

Bruce

Sub print_PDF()

Application.ActivePrinter = "Acrobat PDFWriter on LPT1:"
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, ActivePrinter:= _
"Acrobat PDFWriter on LPT1:"

End Sub

Rgds,

Bruce

Bruce,
What is value of ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Count ?
Unless there is some strange setting in the PDF print driver that limits
files to a certain size, I fail to see how you get 3 files from a single
print call.

Nick,

ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Count = 6.

I will check the print driver settings.

I have had this happen to me sometimes,

Make sure that you have each worksheet that you want to print show the same
paper size & print quality on PAGE SETUP


Good luck

Francois & Bruce,
Just found that you also need the margins set the same. Then voila, 1 file.

I had that problem forever and had given up on a solution, until one
night many months later, I woke up with a very simple solution:
in my print macro I would hide all the sheets that did not require
printing eg : if this cell in sheet1 was less than 0 then sheet1
visibility = false and so on
the macro will go throught the sheets and hide what needs to be hidden,
and then instead of printing selected sheets, I will command it to
print entire workbook here's an example

Sub PrintSelectSheets()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
'Print One
Sheets("Select").Select
If ActiveSheet.Range("F4").Value < 1 Then
Sheets("one").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
End If
'print two
Sheets("Select").Select
If ActiveSheet.Range("F5").Value < 1 Then
Sheets("two").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
End If
'Print three
Sheets("Select").Select
If ActiveSheet.Range("F6").Value < 1 Then
Sheets("three").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
End If
'Print four
Sheets("Select").Select
If ActiveSheet.Range("F7").Value < 1 Then
Sheets("four").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
End If
'Print five
Sheets("Select").Select
If ActiveSheet.Range("F8").Value < 1 Then
Sheets("five").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
End If
'Print six
Sheets("Select").Select
If ActiveSheet.Range("F9").Value < 1 Then
Sheets("six").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
End If

'print base winder 1 left
Sheets("Left Winder 1").Select
If ActiveSheet.Range("L3").Value < 1 Then
Sheets("Left Winder 1").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
End If

'print base winder 1 right
Sheets("Right Winder 1").Select
If ActiveSheet.Range("M3").Value < 1 Then
Sheets("Right Winder 1").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
End If
'print base landing 1 left
Sheets("Left Landing 1").Select
If ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Value < 1 Then
Sheets("Left Landing 1").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
End If
'print base landing 1 Right
Sheets("Right Landing 1").Select
If ActiveSheet.Range("H1").Value < 1 Then
Sheets("Right Landing 1").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
End If

'print winder 2 left
Sheets("Left Winder 2").Select
If ActiveSheet.Range("L3").Value < 1 Then
Sheets("Left Winder 2").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
End If

'print winder 2 right
Sheets("Right Winder 2").Select
If ActiveSheet.Range("M3").Value < 1 Then
Sheets("Right Winder 2").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
End If
'print landing 2 left
Sheets("Left Landing 2").Select
If ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Value < 1 Then
Sheets("Left Landing 2").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
End If
'print landing 2 Right
Sheets("Right Landing 2").Select
If ActiveSheet.Range("H1").Value < 1 Then
Sheets("Right Landing 2").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
End If



Sheets("Start").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
Sheets("Select").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
Sheets("extra pages").Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False

'Print workbook
Application.ActivePrinter = "PDF reDirect v2 on Ne00:"
ActiveWorkbook.PrintOut Copies:=1, ActivePrinter:= _
"PDF reDirect v2 on Ne00:", Collate:=True
'unhide sheets
Sheets("one").Visible = True
Sheets("two").Visible = True
Sheets("three").Visible = True
Sheets("four").Visible = True
Sheets("five").Visible = True
Sheets("six").Visible = True
Sheets("Left Winder 1").Visible = True
Sheets("Left Winder 2").Visible = True
Sheets("Right Winder 1").Visible = True
Sheets("Right Winder 2").Visible = True
Sheets("Left Landing 1").Visible = True
Sheets("Left Landing 2").Visible = True
Sheets("Right Landing 1").Visible = True
Sheets("Right Landing 2").Visible = True
Sheets("extra pages").Visible = True
Sheets("Select").Visible = True
Sheets("Start").Visible = True

end sub

I am sure there is a more efficient way this code could be written but
it does what I want

Good Luck
