Question

I am using cute pdf writer and on printing the data, i get a save as dialog box from cute pdf, however i want to access path of the file name that is about to be saved from cute pdf.

Also i want to programmatic save in my custom location.

foreach (Process clsProcess in Process.GetProcesses())
                       {
  if (clsProcess.ProcessName.Contains("CPWSave")) //CPWSave.EXE
           {
                  isCutePDFSaveDialogOpened = true;                                            
              }
    }

I am able to detect whether cute pdf is opened or not, but not able to pro-grammatically save in my custom location. Any idea?

There is a project in codeproject that handles both detection of CutePDF process and “print to pdf” function in a specified path:

If you don’t want to bother about pinvoke in C++, you can try this open PDF writer library:
