Version 1.59 on Win 2000 Terminal Server

Post by ssicomp »

Hi All,
I am having trouble with the 1.59 PDF Converter. This process has given us years of trouble free performance until now under Win 2000 TS, I say process because Crystal Reports is also involved and it might not be the converter that's the problem.
I am getting the error "There was an error found when printing the document .... Do you want to retry or cancel the job?" This is seemingly coming from the actual print (using Crystal Reports PEStartPrintJob Ver8) as the printer is created ok and seems to be initialized without errors. We are using a C dll to make the calls. The same code works under NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
We are using PDFDriveInit as we are deleting the printer after execution. I didn't think install.exe and a change to DriverInit would help me becuse the printer is being created ok as I have admin rights (that might change once I get this working). I've also tried using the 2.10 demo version and I get the same error.
It seems as though this should work as far as the converter goes, correct?

Hello,

If you start getting "There was an error found when printing the document .... Do you want to retry or cancel the job?" after using version 2.10, than this would be totally normal. To use version 2.10 you need to add a function called EnablePrinter right after your call to PDFDriverInit and right before printing. For more infomration please check "Common Driver Interface 210.pdf" that you received with the demo version.

If you start getting this error message before installing 2.10, than you need to check what has changed in your code, debugging your code may help you trace what is happening at the time of printing.

Thanks.
