Good morning,
Looking for an advice with this:
I would like to convert my Populated Word Template to PDF format in the same exact location where my word was saved.
Bellow are the steps that are working for me, but I can't get the PDF portion.
Any help?
Thanks in advance.
Hi everyone,
I'm facing the same issue with connector word for converting to PDF.
I'll test with OneDrive, thank you @KrishnaV for the tips.
@RachelGomez123 we are in a Power Automate channel... So we tried to solve the issue in Power Automate. We don't need to learn how to convert a word file to pdf from our computer, thank you.
Kind regards
Steps to convert a Word document to a PDF:
Open the file in Microsoft Word.
Convert Word document to PDF:
On Windows, click the Acrobat tab, then click “Create PDF.”
On Mac, click the “Create and Share Adobe PDF” icon, then skip to step 4.
Protect PDF:
Select “Restrict Editing” in the dialog box if you want to prevent the finished PDF file from being changed without your permission.
Save as PDF file:
Select a folder for the exported file or click “Choose a Different Folder” and navigate to the appropriate folder. Then, rename your document and click “Save.”
Greeting,
Rachel Gomez
