Loading mismtached PDBs and DLLs in Visual Studio

When investigating crashes in a DLL or executable that was built in release mode, the symbol file (.PDB) for the DLL or exe is needed. The symbol file has to match exactly the executable and has to be built at the same time as the executable. Sometimes we run into situations where the PDB is not ava...

Re: Interference between printing and Outlook2016 (MAPI)?

Office 2016 is proving to be a real headache and there is no easy solution to the issue that you are encountering. Office is somehow changing the security on the registry and your application is not able to read/write from certain registry locations that are needed by PDF Converter. The solution tha...

Re: ConcatenateFiles creates corrupted text in PDF

Hello Stewarth If version 4.5.3.9 worked in all scenarios, integrating that version with your application could be a solution, newer versions of a Windows driver do not get overwritten by older versions unless they are explicitly uninstalled first. Another solution could be to use cdintf.dll version...

One thing you have to be aware of is that you have to respect the order of Layers. If you have: Layer 1 Sub-Layer A Sub-Layer B Layer 2 You have to output in the page c...
