Thanks for reply.

The problem is that QTP were not able to see save button or file - save as option to save PDF.
I am beginner in QTP so for me Descriptive programming is WOW!
Could you please help me with that? I need any options (save button or file - save as) just to save PDF.

Regards,
Gene.

Try the following:

Code:

Window("<your pdf window name>").Click
Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.SendKeys "%{F}"        ' Press ALT+F
WshShell.SendKeys "{a}"              ' Send the corresponding letter which is underlined, for 'save' under 'File' Menu. This opens a 'save a copy' dialog box
Window("<pdf window>").Dialog("Save a Copy").Click
Window("Adobe Reader").Dialog("Save a Copy").WinEdit("File name:").Set "<File Path>"
Window("Adobe Reader").Dialog("Save a Copy").WinButton("Save").Click
Set WshShell = Nothing

Let me know if u face any issues in object identification.

You are correct, I have a problem with window name object identification.
