Saving Form PDF to Original SharePoint Folder

Hi -- I have to routinely open PDFs in SharePoint and add form fields. Once I add the fields and go to save the file, I cannot find the original SharePoint location as an option for saving. Is there a simple way to save it back to the original location?

 

For example, if I open a Word document from SharePoint, if I want to save it with a new filename I can go to recent folders, and it shows the SharePoint folder I just accessed. The only way I have found to resave to the same folder in Adobe is to sync the SharePoint library and navigate to it through My Computer. But this is not a good solution because there will be hundreds of folders and I have to remember the folder name. Surely Adobe Acrobat recorded the path when I opened the file. I'm hoping I'm missing an easy fix.

Check with a non Microsoft tool, if Microsoft has not built-in an undocumented SharePoint file function. It may well be, that with SharePoint, the Acrobat file has been first transferred to a temporary place and then opened.
