I think you have to set it as a property for the sub-tree you are
trying to export. So whenever you export only that sub-tree, the file
name will be taken from that property. For setting the directory you
could try something like 'directory/filename.pdf' instead of just the
usual file name. (untested) I am not aware of any directory only
settings for export of sub-trees. But then I am not org-mode power
user. :-)

If it is not already there, I would also like to have a feature like
that. In my case I want to export to some remote directory over ssh to
some directory on my 'webserver:~/public_html' directory. I would like
to set this on a per file basis. Don't know whether that is possible
or not. Haven't had the time to explore in detail. When I was using
emacs-muse, I used this feature extensively (I used to choose this
interactively, so changing remote directories was pretty convenient
with tab completion support from tramp)

Hope that helps.
