    Anyone have any ideas how we could export and save each page of a report as a separate pdf file on a network share, dynamically? We would like to use the primary key as the name of each saved file. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    The first thing that comes to is to save the the report as a PDF and then use some kind of utility that splits the PDF into seperate files. There's plenty out there to do this, GOOGLE "split pdf into multiple files".

    Thanks for the feedback. I found several utilities that will save each page as its own page, but can not find one that will name the file based of the primary id that is on each page, which happens to be a PO Number from the report dataset. I did see a way to possibly do this with a data-driven subscription, but of course we have to the Enterprise version. Urrr.... I will keep looking around.

    Thanks
