Hello,

I have a program which after every order I enter hit "control + P" and it prints the current screen in the program.

What I would like is rather then having 1000 pages at the end of the day, is to have 1000 files, which i could group together as a single file, and then burn.

It seems likely to me that there is a program that could do this, i.e. Adobe PDF.

My concern with Adobe PDF is it may delay the speed at which orders are entered. I will be testing Adobe shortly. As well it would be nice if I could use information on the screen to autmatically name the file.

I.e.
Order 143 - New Client Order - Order1 - 1000 chairs.PDF
Order 143 - New Client Order - Order1 - 100 tables.PDF

then i would group them as Order 143.PDF

Any ideas? Again doesnt need to be Adobe (it's just the only one i can think of)

pressing the print screen then opening your paint / photo program
select edit then past as new image. this creates a picture of the
screen your on. its is not editable cause its an image.
or using ctrl + p brings up your printer setup on that page
you can select print to file.
