Save Method Saves No Pages

BryanSteiger · Post by **BryanSteiger** » Wed Dec 03 2003

Good afternoon,

I'm using PDF Creator Version 1.5 Professional's ActiveX component with VB .NET. The ActiveX control is on a windows form. I can load pdf files and create new objects in the loaded file. I call the Save method and it throws no exceptions. However, when I attempt to load the saved document, I get a null reference exception. Attempting to open the file in Adobe Acrobat returns an error indicating the .pdf file has no pages.

Code: Select all

Private Sub cmdSave_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdSave.Click
        SFD1.DefaultExt = ".pdf"
        SFD1.ShowDialog()
        Dim strPDF As String = SFD1.FileName
        strFileName = SFD1.FileName

        Me.PDF1.SetLicenseKey("","")
        Me.PDF1.Save(strPDF, ACPDFCREACTIVEX.FileSaveOptionConstants.acFileSaveAll)

    End Sub

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

Please download our latest 1.50c version of the PDF Creator from http://www.amyuni.com/en/support/updates.html

After installing and registering the latest dlls, will you still face this same issue?

Please check that you are saving the file in View and Design mode or in View Mode only to be able to view it in Acrobat Reader.

Thank you; that appeared to take care of the problem. However, a new problem presents- when right-clicking on the Creator ActiveX object, choosing any of the options from the context menu thows an null reference exception.

Thanks for your time,

B.

Hi,

When and how are you right clicking on the Creator ActiveX? After adding it to a form?

Thanks.
