Passing file name to application

    Hi guys,

    I have a LISP routine that creates several PDF files from one drawing. I'm using Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Standard, which creates an Adobe PDF printer driver in AutoCAD. The problem I have is that I can't pass different file names from AutoCAD to the PDF dialogue box. Currently I have to manually enter the file names for the different PDF's. Is there a way to get AutoCAD to pass information to a different application?

    TIA,
    Shaye.

    Just a check, is the printer driver that it sets up in AutoCAD a pc3 file?
    or is it just a Windows system printer that AutoCAD sees?

    It's a Windows System Driver. That could be the problem.
