How to Change the Default name of the PDF

Hello Community,

I have a need to customize the default behaviour of PDF exports. Currently, when exporting a record as a PDF, the file is downloaded with the table name as the default.

I am looking for a solution to customize this behaviour so that the PDF is downloaded with the Ticket Numbers and Short Description instead. Despite searching through various community posts, I haven't found a suitable solution.

If anyone has insights on this, please assist.

Best Regards,
Sai
