When printing labels to PDF is there any option to specify the file name and/or where the file is stored?

With the built in Save to PDF, no.
You can install a PDF printer, and set ShipRush to print to the PDF printer. The PDF printer will give you those options (save to location and name). A good PDF printer that's available out there is PDFCreator.

Thank you for using ShipRush!
Can the file name change? not "shippment XXXXXXXXX"?
What would you like the filename to be based on when ShipRush creates it?

say the file name can be XXXXXX(tracking number) + reference + State + Zip
I have pushed that to development to see if we can expand the print to PDF functionality as a feature request. Case 31136
Thank you,

Actually is would also be nice to be able to edit it before printing.
Can you help us with a few questions?
- How many pdf labels do you do per day?
- Do you print them, or do you send them to someone else to print?
- What kind of printer do you use?
- How does the file name help you?
Thank you

I can print from one to a dozen or more labels at a time.
Some I print locally others I PDF to send to the warehouse to print and ship from there. These remote printed PDF labels I change the file name to include the date and description of the item being shipped to help eliminate errors.
Locally I print to a Dymo 4XL thermal printer, remotely the PDF files are printed to a Zebra 2844.
Having a meaningful file label helps eliminate errors when selecting to attach to emails and when remotely selecting to print.
