Exporting reports as pdf's

[RussellProdger]

I run a number of reports for work each morning. They should run by themselves and once finished export as a pdf to a folder.


Recently they have stopped exporting as PDF's. The report runs and works in access but when it tries to export, i get this message


none of these reasons are relevant. So i have to open the report and export as pdf again manually- this message might appear again and it might take 10 times, but eventually it does export.

Is there a known issue. please help- this is adding lots of work to my day.



Running windows 10, access 2016 and adobe creative cloud acrobat DC.

are you using
docmd.OutputTo acOutputReport ,"rMyRpt",acFormatPDF, "c:\folder\file.pdf" ?

is the pdf open when you try to create it?

Currently using a macro to run the report
the file is not open- it doesnt open when complete- which is how i want it.
it'll prompt me if i want to overide the current copy
