I am searching for a way to add registry entries to the Adobe Acrobat 7 registry settings in order to tell Acrobat the path and file name to save to when it's invoked through a REPORT FORM command and the current printer is set to Acrobat.

Back in Acrobat 5 you could set a PDFFileName entry under Software\Adobe\Acrobat PDFWriter - but this no longer seems to work under the equivalent entry of Software\Adobe\Acrobat PDFMaker or Software\Adobe\Acrobat PDFMaker\7.0

Also, if possible, for registry entries to suppress the Save As dialogue and the Acrobat preview.

The goal here is to automate the creation of PDF files by setting registry entries telling Acrobat to create a specific PDF, do not offer any other "Save As" option, and do not bother diplaying the report - so we can just quietly get on with creating the PDF.

Can anyone help?

Thanks
Chris Palmer
