Printing/Saving PDF opened in new Chrome Tab

kpb26 — Tue, 16 Nov 2021 18:11:26 GMT

I'm working on a process that involves a list of messages on a webpage. When the link for one of the messages is clicked, the message is opened as a PDF in a new tab. We would like to Save or Print the PDF locally, but are having trouble getting the print or save dialog to open up. Any tips or tricks to get this process to work? Currently we have defined the application model as a "Browser-based Application (Chrome, Firefox, or Edge Chromium" if that makes a difference?

Hi @KevinBabb1,

Have you tried using Global Send Keys to send a CTRL+P to the window for the print dialog?

Cheers,
Eric

Hi @ewilson I did try that but it did not seem to work. I tried using "^P" as the Global Send Keys input, is that correct or is there a different way to send it?

**EDIT**

Ok, looks the the problem was the item I had identified for sending the Global Send Keys input. I redid the identify and changed the spying mode so that I could select part of the browser rather than just he page, and now GSK with "^P" is working. Thanks!

1)Usage of "^S" in Global send keys .

@New Student, you can spy the print option and select the save button in the next page, hope this helps.

Hello, i found the solution in case anyone still needs help.

Inside the application modeller. You must look for the option identify UI automation navigator

and with the browser in the print option you could find here the buttons and commands.

Cheers, Julian.
