MS Access creates nine(9) different reports, which are have to be combine to one PDF file.
My problem is: when Access outputs files to a Universal AdobePS printer to create *.ps files, it asking for file name to save. Is there is a way to send parameters to a printer or other choices to bypass this question.

Thanks.
Yuri.

You can use standard "print to file" techniques. I don't know how you
do that with Access, but it is standard technique for all printer
drivers, not just AdobePS.

Standard "print to file" techniques create a text file. But I need a postscript file.

What leads you to this conclusion?

Probably, I'm doing not correct way.
If I output to a file from my application, it will create a file looks like text file and Distiller gives me an error during creating PDF.
If I output to printer, where default printer is AdobePS, it will ask me for file name to save and then will create postscript file.
My goal is bypass that question. I'm not sure how.
If I'm doing wrong, how should I do it right.

Thanks again for respond.
Yuri.

You need to select a printer, but specify print to file.  If you
aren't sure how to do that in Access, and nobody here has any
information, you might like to check out an Access forum... as I say,
it's not printer specific.
