Cmd to save PDF document to a specific folder

[defaultemuqudrced2r]

Hello

We currently need to save PDF documents to several folders.  One folder will be always be a differentj ob specific  folder. The 2nd will be 1 of 3 different locations depending on the trade on the job. Is is possible to create a cmd , that once the pdf document is saved to the job specific folder, it will "automaticlly" be save to the trade folder.  Perhaps a differnt cmd for each trade.

Thank you

This requires using a script, but it has to run from a trusted context, such as a folder-level .js file that will have to be installed on each machine that will use this file.

Thank you.

I have the script running in debugger.  I cannot figure out how to add it as a "tool/button" on the tool bar.

This command will be run for different pdf documents.

Thanks

The console window in the debugger is a privileged context. As noted in the article, the saveAs command only works in a  privileged context. So it will only work from a document script if that document is trusted, which the user needs to do.  The solution provided in the first article linked above is to create a folder level trusted function, but there are different ways to create trust, such as adding the PDF to the trusted document list in the Acrobat Enhanced Security Preferences.
