Does your application have a native feature for saving the PDF file to a location? I use a tax prep software myself and it always gives me the option of saving it to a file location.  It might be easier to just use the native feature of the application to save the file rather than try and script something from the preview window.

the application doesnot have native feature to save, just we have to preview pdf and can save the pdf using adobe reader File->Save,

 

by any way we can recognize the adobe reader using testcomplete object spy.?.

i tried send keys, but they are not working!!!

 

thanks

    Try like this ...

     

    Set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

    oShell.SendKeys("+^s")

    delay(500)

    oShell.SendKeys(Path and file Name)

    delay(500)

    oShell.SendKeys"{ENTER}"
