Yes...here is one way (sort of).

set printer to name "Acrobat PDFWriter"
* set safety off  && you may want to do this
report form myReport to file "pdfTest." noconsole  && play with it and you will see
                                         && why I put the period there

Some comments:

The PDF reader will open, showing the report. This may or may not be acceptable. Processing will continue in VFP while the reader is opening. After the "REPORT FORM" line, you can check to see if the reader still has the file (treat it as a preview feature *grin*).

fh = fopen("pdfTest.pdf", 12)
if fh < 0 && the user is still previewing the file

You can put this in some sort of loop after the file is created, so processing can continue in the manner you desire.

Also, there may be an empty file called "pdfTest." in the same location as "pdfTest.pdf"

HTH,
