We built a javascript that prompts a user for a file number and a file name - and based on the number they enter - it automatically saves the PDF on a shared drive with the format filename-filenumber.pdf - it has some logic built into to it to see if the file number starts with a given prefix - it files in in folder A vs folder B depending on the prefix.
So for example - we file our files under a number like 123456 (if it was created before COVID) or DR123456 (if it was created during covid) and we have the following folder structure already setup:
Our script works perfectley - however - we have come to realize that javascript has several short-falls:
Is anyone aware of a acrobat plugin that will accomplish something like this? A good example would be a law firm that has to file all of their documents under a given case number.
Our company processes hundreds of thousands of documents a year - so going the old route of File > Save As > Browse to the shared drive > Find the Right folder and saving was taking way too long.

A plugin could be written to do this but it seems unlikely one would already exist.
