Hello,

I wanted to see if someone could help me select the correct activities to:

Open a .mhtm on my desktop with Word

Save the file as a PDF

Any help and direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Tim

as mhtm is particular web page file give a try on following:

open it in browser (e.g. IE, Edge)
print it to PDF

ok that’s a good idea.

Do you know how I can pass a variable into the browser name?

FileName is the variable used to save the .mhtml file.

Assign - BrowserName = “C:\Users\Tim\Desktop"+ FileName +”.mhtml"

I get implicit conversion errors when passing into the Open Browser activity.

Thanks,

Tim

Hi

Pass the above value as input to filepath of Start Process activity and it will automatically open in a browser page
Like how we use to open it manually

Then use a send hot key activity and try with keys ctrl+p for print option and then another hot key activity with enter as key

Cheers @timothy.mullady
