Properties About dialog appearing

One of our clients is sometimes presented with the Properties dialog containing only the About tab that displays the copyright and licensing information. When they click OK the PDF is created as expected, and life goes on. But why on earth would they be presented with this dialog? None of our other ...

PDFs created by a COM app are locked too tightly

This is more of an information post than a request for help. However, if anybody knows anything about this I would be very grateful for any advice! In our product we have written a COM server that, when the web user requests a report, spawns a process that calls the driver to create the PDF. Each re...

Exception in PDF Converter 3.00's LinearizePDFDocument()

Our clients have reported a problem that sometimes occurs when linearizing an encrypted PDF, and we have sometimes seen this error ourselves as well. The exception code is 0xe06d7363. A Google search yields the page http://support.microsoft.com/kb/185294 to explain this exception. Unfortunately, we ...

We found that although the PDF doesn't display anything in Adobe Acrobat, you can select the text and when you paste it into something like Notepad it is visible. If you open the PDF in Foxit Reader then you see garbage characters. What fixed it was setting the EmbedFonts bit in SetDocFileProps(). O...

Okay, I have spent a bunch more time playing around with this printing from a specific paper tray. As an aside, note that the software I'm using is Powerbuilder. However, this topic has not been discussed (as far as I can see) in the Powerbuilder Community forum, so I'm posting in this forum. And an...

More printing from a specific paper tray

My printer is ignoring the paper tray settings that are (I assume) being burned into the PDF file. I have a Powerbuilder application where I create a PDF from a datawindow report. In that report I set the paper source to be (for example) 2, which indicates the 11x17 bin. This works okay if I simply ...

We are using only the PDF Converter. The problem with doing what you suggest is that the PDF may need to be printed on various printers from various paper sources. For example, Customer A may print the PDF from paper tray 1 (which contains the 11x14), but Customer B needs to print from paper tray 2 ...

Printing a PDF from a particular paper source

I can call PrintPDFDocument() or PrintPDFDocumentEx() and specify the number of copies. Is there a way to indicate which paper source the printer should use to print the document? For example, if there are two paper trays, one at 8.5x11 and the other at 8.5x14, can I indicate which tray to use?

As a work-around I am now calling LinearizePDFDocument() after the PDF has been created, which seems to work fine.

Any idea when the next release will be?

I downloaded the 210i drivers and installed them. There is no change in behavior: the produced PDF still reports that Fast Web View is No. To clarify what I am doing the following may help. First of all, I'm calling the dll from inside a Python dll which is called from inside a Powerbuilder app. Whe...

LinearizeForWeb ignored in SetFileNameOptions()

When I generate a PDF through the printer driver I specify several constants in the call to SetFileNameOptions(): NoPrompt, UseFileName, MultilingualSupport, EncryptDocument, and LinearizeForWeb. The LinearizeForWeb constant appears to be silently ignored, however. No error is reported, but when I c...
