Automated Word 2003 to PDF

T

I am working on a project where I am doing a mail merge of 700
documents. I have a macro that then separates each section into its own
file and saves the document based on text in the footer. Each document
is in a separate folder. So when this is over I will have 700 folders.

What I want to do now is convert the file to PDF. Each folder will have
one Word doc & 1 PDF file. The problem is that I can't seem to get the
file to convert to PDF. I don't want to have to touch anything. It
should be able to run without human contact. I can't purchase any other
programs to help. This must be done with Word 2003 and Acrobat 6.0
(full). Also I do not have Acrobat Distiller as a printer on my system.
Although I have the program available.

I have AdobePDFmaker, but again I don't want to have to press any keys.
When the PDF is created it should be saved in the exisiting folder
using the same filename as the Word doc.

Any code for doing this? Thanks for any help.

the simplest way is to install a Distiller printer and print to that
printer.

The alternative is to contact Adobe to get the Acrobat 6 SDK and program
using an Acrobat object.
