Same code working on my Windows PC, but it doesn't work on my MAC pc.When I click the Save button, it's printing the pdf instead save it. I want to save it. If anybody can help me I will be very glad.

Sub Save_NEWPORT_ESTIMATE()

If Range("G1") = "INVOICE" Then

LigneIS = Application.CountA(Sheets("Invoice summary").Range("A:A"))
Sheets("Invoice summary").Range("A" & LigneIS + 1) = Now
Sheets("Invoice summary").Range("B" & LigneIS + 1) = Sheets("NANTUCKET ESTIMATE").Range("H8")
Sheets("Invoice summary").Range("C" & LigneIS + 1) = "NANTUCKET"
Sheets("Invoice summary").Range("D" & LigneIS + 1) = Sheets("NANTUCKET ESTIMATE").Range("A12")
Sheets("Invoice summary").Range("E" & LigneIS + 1) = Sheets("NANTUCKET ESTIMATE").Range("M49")

I am not sure if this request is still valid, but I found a solution on

It appears that the export to PDF parameters react differently on mac than on windows PC and you need a workaround that saves the PDF into the users Library folder, specificially into the Office Library folder. The key function is this

    Function CreateFolderinMacOffice2016(NameFolder As String) As String
    'Function to create folder if it not exists in the Microsoft Office Folder
    'Ron de Bruin : 1-Feb-2019
    Dim OfficeFolder As String
    Dim PathToFolder As String
    Dim TestStr As String

    OfficeFolder = MacScript("return POSIX path of (path to desktop folder) as string")
    OfficeFolder = Replace(OfficeFolder, "/Desktop", "") & _
        "Library/Group Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/"

    PathToFolder = OfficeFolder & NameFolder

    On Error Resume Next
    TestStr = Dir(PathToFolder & "*", vbDirectory)
    On Error GoTo 0
    If TestStr = vbNullString Then
        MkDir PathToFolder
        'You can use this msgbox line for testing if you want
        'MsgBox "You find the new folder in this location :" & PathToFolder
    End If
    CreateFolderinMacOffice2016 = PathToFolder
End Function

Creating a folder using this function and directly using the returning value as file path will make it work.

All credits to Ron de Bruin, I just copied this to help out. Visit his page for further examples.
