I have looked at a lot of answers to this question but can't figure out what I have done wrong. I am trying to create a pdf file. I get my data from an excel file and copy it into powerpoint. I then try to save as pdf but it keeps giving me an error (object required) at the saving pdf section of the macro (see below). I tried changing it multiple times but still can't get it to work. Have attached code below. After I fix this problem, I need to be able to change the size of the object I pasted in - how do I do that.
Sub CreatePDFfiles_4()
Dim PPapp As Object
Dim PPPres As Object
Dim first_file As Boolean
Dim investorname As String
Dim path As String
Sheets("printing").Select
Range("g2").Select
file1 = ActiveCell.Value
Range("g3").Select
path = ActiveCell.Value
Range("g8").Select
investorname = ActiveCell.Value
Range("i8").Select
cor_file_name = ActiveCell.Value
DestinationPPT = "C:\Users\name\Documents\company\Investment Model\printing macro\template.pptx"
While investorname <> "end"
ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Select
print_data = ActiveCell.Value
If print_data = "Yes" Then
' Initialize PowerPoint Object Library
Set PPapp = CreateObject("Powerpoint.Application")
PPapp.Visible = True
' Open presentation
Set PPPres = PPapp.Presentations.Open(DestinationPPT)
'Copy excel file data
Windows(file1).Activate
Sheets(investorname).Select
Range("b1:r46").Select
Selection.Copy
'Paste into existing powerpoint template slide that is open
PPPres.slides(1).Shapes.Paste
'Save as pdf
PPPres.ExportAsFixedFormat ActivePresentation.path & "\" & cor_file_name & ".pdf", ppFixedFormatTypePDF, ppFixedFormatIntentPrint
PPapp.Quit
Set PPapp = Nothing
