Default Convert Outlook folders to Adobe pdf

Not sure if this is the correct forum but anyway, I have tried various
other forums and no one has an answer for me (not even Adobe support).
I use Windows XP Professional SP2, Office 2003 SP2. Acrobat Prof Ver
8. In Outlook 2003 you have the Create Adobe PDF from folders icon
after installing Acrobat. When you convert your SENT ITEMS to a pdf
and it opens in Acrobat your different mail items are displayed with
the path (folder location) where it was converted from e.g. \\Mailbox
Name\Sent\2007 in the next column it has From e.g. your own name as
you sent the mail, next column it has the subject, then the date, then
the size, then the attachments. Is there a way one we can change this
to display the "MailTo" as surely you want to see who you sent the
mail. You know you sent it so why your name. Maybe one can use VBA
from Outlook to view the items differently before invoking Acrobat or
perhaps use different software to write to pdf or whatever. Even if I
have to purchase different software. Does anyone have any ideas or
solutions. I am really desparate at this stage. All help and
suggestions would be appreciated.

Default Convert Outlook folders to Adobe pdf



Whether the behaviour of your Adobe Addin can be modified or not should be
answered by Adobe.

I don't know if there are any other Addins that do what you want.

You can, of course, write your own code. There're some PDF creators out
there for free. For instance, I'm using
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfcreator. It's able to convert Word
documents; so your job would be to create the document with whatever you
want.
