We see this question very frequently. The orientation setting in the PDF printer (or any other printer) is only the default setting for that printer. For e.g., when some applications start a new document, they would query the default printer setting and create a Portrait or Landscape document accord...

This might be an obvious question, but are you sure that you have a form field object named "FieldName" in your document? GetObjectByName doesn't seem to find such a field and is returning an error.

You can assign the printer port during installation. When using Install.exe, you can use the "-o portname" command line option to do so. When using PDFDriverInit from the DLL or ActiveX interfaces, you can add the port after the printer name separated by a semi-colon: "myprinter;port". In both cases...

There are things that might explain this issue: 1) PDF Converter converts to PDF any text or drawing instructions that are sent to it. If the contents are truncated, in most cases it means that the printing application did not send the text to the printer. So the first place to start is to make sure...

The problem with transparencies comes from the fact that PDF Converter is similar to Postscript printers but is not really a Postscript printer. So it is in between two worlds: raster printer (e.g. PCL) and Postscript. The "fix" for transparent gifs is different depending on the application from whi...

This fix did not make it on time for the 4.0.0.8 release but was included in 4.0.0.9 which is available as an unsigned printer driver and is currently being submitted for digital signature and Microsoft certification. The Microsoft certification is a lengthy process since we now have 8 platforms on ...

We would need to take a look at the code and the certificate that is being used for signing the documents.

Version 3.03 can be downloading by logging-in to the customer section, it is not available for general download.

Event handling requires some additional consideration under 64-bit systems. The problem is the following: When a 32-bit application prints to a 64-bit driver under a 64-bit OS, the 32-bit application does not directly interact with the printer driver but another process is involved: splwow64.exe. Th...

Printer resolution is part of the standard Devmode settings that are supported by all printers under Windows. The entries that you find under the Software registry key are settings that are very specific to our printer and that are also common to all print jobs (meaning if you change the setting for...

The main difference is that the original application is using Windows GDI to display and print whereas the PDF is most commonly viewed with Acrobat Reader which has its own rendering engine. One thing that would help with the accuracy is printing resolution. The recommended resolution is 600 DPI whi...

You will need to send your executable name to support@amyuni.com and ask them for an alternative code. Another solution is to provide you with an ...

The two DLLs mentioned above are part of the PDF Viewer that ships with Amyuni PDF Converter. The viewer does not require certification and is not always the same version number as the printer driver.
