    Can I create an automatic custom file save name/path once I click digital signature field?

      Hi,

       

      What I'm trying to do is once I click on a digital signature and I add my digital signature it requires me to sign it.  I want to know if there's a workaround to where once I click it it will automatically save to a file name based on a field and to a pre-determined directory?  Say, if I want it to save to a users desktop.  My supervisor is wanting to eliminate his employees having to change the file name to the format he wants and selecting the save location and make it automatic for everyone to have it saved at the same location on their computers. 

       

      Will likely have everyone in the office create a folder named 'Leave Requests'.  This will be the location on the desktop where all these automatically saved files would go.  The custom file name would be Emp_Name + "Leave Request" + Date where Emp_Name and Date are 2 variables that are user inputted field values on the form.  I have looked around but there doesn't seem to be too much on this one.  I do realize I can't create a custom 'Save As' location and path name but I have read a little about creating a custom automatic save feature and wanted to know if I could implement that.  Here is the information I read about:
