    Saving PDFs


    I tried saving a PDF in a folder with the symbol # in the name and when i try to open the PDF if shows an error. However if i rename the folder the PDF is saved in to anything the doesnt have the # symbol then the PDF opens fine. I am using the new Surface pro X. Its not a big deal but its just super weird.

    :)

    • For Optimize for, select an option: Standard or
      Minimum Size.

    • Select Open File After Publishing, if you want to open the file after you save it as a PDF. This is selected by default.

    microsoft print to pdf files will not open after saving

    We suggest that you save the PDF files on your device and check if the issue persists. You may also want to associate the PDF files to Microsoft Edge as the default program to make sure that you have a default application that will open all of your PDF files.
    Here are the steps:

    • Search for Default Programs.
    • Go to Associate a file type or protocol with a program.
    • Select the .pdf file type and then click the Change program button on the upper right of the
      Set Associations window.
    • Choose Microsoft Edge and then click OK.
    Let us know how it goes.
