Quickbooks 2004 and Amyuni Driver
I have QB 2004 and when I go to email a report, the report is truncated in the email. It won't display all of the columns properly. It displays properly on the screen. However, I can take the same report and print it to my Adobe PDF driver and it converts it properly. I tried switching to both the landscape and portrait settings but with no success. I tried to contact Intuit regarding this problem, but they have no documentation and no solutions. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Hi Lighthouse,
How are you 'emailing' the forms from within Quickbooks?
I found it more convenient to set up a dedicated printer using the Amyuni driver, just for Quickbooks documents, choosing my required options (font embedding, security etc.
Next - instead of clicking "email" from the quotes or invoices section of Quickbooks - choose "Print", and use the new printer you added.
(I set mine to save to a file - in a "\quotes\<customer name>" folder, and also to preview the document so I can double check it before I send the email).
Then, back in Quickbooks, click the "email" to create the email with my desired template, and I remove the automatically attached 'qbmail.pdf' from the email, and instead attach the PDF created from the "print" dialogue.
It's a little more long winded, but it allows me to have URL translation (useful when you have email and web addresses on your pages) and also to have custom security to prevent people changing values in your quotes.
Beware though (I need to report this as a bug, if it hasn't already been):
If you choose ANY encryption in the security settings - the "paid" images in settled invoices become multicolour and look a mess).
Unfortunately, it's the only way I can enable the security to prevent everything except printing the document.
Hope that helps.

Yes - I realised Intuit were using the Amyuni driver, but they weren't updating it, which was really frustrating, as I wanted to embed fonts and have the URL checking, which wasn't in the Intuit version... so bought my own license of PDF converter pro specifically to use with Quickbooks - and I couldn't be without it now!
Regarding the corrupted "paid" images - you're right! Just tried with Adobe Reader 7 on a different machine, and it appears fine, but as a multi-coloured mess when I open the same file in Acrobat Pro 6.
Thanks for the heads up Joan - and sorry that (Adobe) bug hijacked someone elses thread.
