Print Driver Version keeps reverting to 2.50e-3

Post by peachy12 »

I have a foxpro application which uses the Amyuni PDF driver to convert word documents and VFP reports to PDF. At one client's site, they appear to have had version 2.50e-3 installed at some point. This version does not seem to convert their word documents completely to PDF. I have tried removing the CDFInt250.dll from their \windows\system32 folder and then tried installing version 2.50a of the print driver. However, when I go to the printer settings, the version still says version 2.50e-3. I would like to use the older version, as the newer version seems to prevent some images being converted correctly, if I have the DPI set to 300 and choose to downsample images using imageoptions set to 2.

HJow to I completely remove the previously installed version of the CDFInt driver or could you suggest why the images get corrupted, fail to convert when creating a PDF from a word doc? Note, not all images fail, just some.
