Script Path/Filename After Digital Signing

I know how to use Javascript and the this.SaveAs function (yes with a folder level function, just to get that out of the way). I can use it to create a path and filename for a Save button in a PDF document.

However, when digitally signing a document I would like to be able to, at the very least, define the filename/path automatically.  We have a form that must be filled every day then signed/locked/saved for compliance purposes.  Right now we have to manually change directories and rename the master document to include the audit's date.  On a side note, if I include the code in the "run script after signing" option it will re-save the document with the Javascript save code after the signing process is complete, but this seems like an odd way of operating if it can be avoided.

Am I stuck on this one?  Open to suggestions.

Please refer me to another community if you think I'll get better answers there.  THANK YOU, guys!

I don't think you can do it. When the document is signed the built-in Save

As command will open automatically. You can't avoid it or tell it where to

save the file. It's up to the user.

After that you can run your own code to (re-)save the file, but it won't

replace it.

I figured so, but hopefully someone may prove us both wrong!
