I just can't get it to specify the file name. It automatically uses the print job name, which is "Visual Foxpro.PDF." My work-around is to re-name the file after it's created. A lot easier than working with Adobe's and it's free.

In VFP 7, 5D creates the file having the report name. So you can rename a report
before you use report command to your output file name.
I read somwhere also that it is possible to change
document name in vfp 7 (in vfp 5 a "Visual FoxPro" appears in
spooler window).

Can you give more explanations how to use 5D pdf creator without
PROMPT clause in VFP 5 ?
In my tests, if I removed PROMPT clause, 5D creator doesn't create
any output.
