DDP: Move Exported PDF to Separate Folder

PaulGardiner

I am currently exporting a number of maps in pdf format using Data Driven Pages.

I would like to be able to export, or move each pdf map once exported, to a separate folder which is named with the pdf name.

Once exported the maps have to be imported in to a CRM system and having each map in a separate folder would expedite this process.

Could this be a solution for you?
