What is the Close PDF Action?

The Close PDF Action closes a PDF document.

Creating a Close PDF Action

Drag and drop the Target Selector onto the Targets list in the target PDF document to display the available target options. Continue to drag the Target Selector to the PDF Document item, releasing your mouse to display the Target Preview. If this is the first time the document was targeted, Nintex RPA LE will attempt to create a PDF Connection automatically. (For more information about Adobe Acrobat connections, read the Excel Connections article.)

A preview of the target is displayed. Select the Close PDF Action from the Actions list.

Select the Rules to change the Connection for this Action. Both the Timing  and Error settings for this action may be configured to fine tune the how the Action will run.

Note: For more information about the timing and error settings, go to Action Builder.

If you wish to save the changes to the document, check the Save Changes option.  If checked, you will then have the option to save the document using a New File path or its existing file path .  If saving the document to a new file path, you will be required to provide the file path . Choose Overwrite to overwrite the file if it already exists.

Optionally add Notes to the Action to document any special instructions or functionality. When the Run Switchis set to Run, the action will be executed after clicking OK.

Note: The run switch is set to Run by default. To create or modify this action without executing it, click the slider to change the option to Don't Run.  For more information, go to Action Builder.

Click the OK button to save the Action.
