I am trying to print a PDF for book publishing. the inner margin needs to be bigger than the outer margin. This alternates between even and odd pages, so I can't just make the margin offset for all pages. Any way to do this?
many thanks

Several people are having the same issue, for the same simple task I am working on.
I am trying to convert .png files into .pdf files, and I want to keep the same filename: abc.png => abc.pdf
The token is not working.
For the Default Profile, I have:
In Document Title:
In Save, Filename Template:When I right click on the file and convert, I am getting "Full page print.pdf" name.
Could you please help?
Thanks!

Hello,
RTV Xporter is a tool for Revit and recommends PDFCreator as it's printer. The goal is to create PDF files of a serious of sheets where the sheet number will be the filename of the created PDF automatically without any further input.
The problem is that PDFCreator still asks for each file a location and name.
Is there a setting I overlook or is there a "paid" PDFCreator which would be able to do that?
Thanks in advance,
wolfgang

Hi,
I don't understand someting. I configured two printers in PDFCreator Server 1.1.1 but i only see one printer in "Devices and Printers" section.
But when i want to print, i can see the two printers in the list.
It is a normal reaction ?
Best regards

I'm writing new, very basic code to intercept a print job and create a PDF from it. My WaitForJob statement never succeeds, even with a 120 second wait time. In the migration flowchart, it simply says "Print a file that you want to convert". Can someone elaborate on this?
- Can/Does PDF Creator watch the queue for the default Windows Printer? Where is it watching?
- Does the Default Windows Printer have to be PDF Creator?
I'm obviously missing something. Any help is appreciated.

Hi,
I really need to create landscape slides (PDFs) from landscape printing from a vb.net application. Unfortunately, for the last 5 years, PDFCreator always decided to print the PDF's with a portrait orientation. I then turn them using a Web PDF Rotation service.
So I had a look under the bonnet of PDFCreator and realised it is little more than a wrapper around a product called Ghostscript. More reading suggested the Ghostscript's autorotatepages function was struggling and needed a hand. Lots of reading of the Postscript Manuals left me realising that I need PDFCreator to read this line of Postscript:
-c "<</Orientation 3>> setpagedevice"I set the "Additional Ghostscript parameters" textbox in PDFCreator and tried again. Still no luck!
I searched for other approaches and found this:
<< /EndPage { exch pop 2 ne { [{ThisPage} <</Rotate 90>> /PUT pdfmark true} {false}ifelse } >>setpagedeviceI could see no way to prefix this with a "-c" so I saved it in a file called rotate.ps, in the "C:\Program Files\PDFCreator\GS9.10\gs9.10\Lib" folder and put rotate.ps in the Additional Ghostscript parameters" textbox.
This time I had success. The output from my application reliably produces landscape output from a landscape original.
Whats more if <> setpagedevice is put into the rotate.ps file this works too!
So like buses, I now have two different, but functional solutions.
I would be grateful if a pdfforge engineer, a Ghostscript engineer or a postscript professional would comment.
Thanks

PDF Creator ist auf einem Terminalserver installiert. Die Lizenz gilt bis 2018, jeodch verliert PDF Creator ständig die Lizenz. Darauf hin wurde der Registry-Vodoo vollzogen wie er hier im Forum empfohlen wird. Das hat für genau eine Woche geholfen, jetzt verliert er leider schon wieder nach 24 Stunden die Lizenz.
Gibt es eine andere Lösung für das Problem?

Hi all,
I must detect the PDFCreator version installed in the Win client, it's possible to do it via COM?
Or I must read from registry?

Have a Server 2012 R2 Running TS. Have a POS application built in Access.
I was able to run save to file, and email before using the microsoft to pdf function with 2008.Since that feature wasnt in 2012, i had to purchase this program. But now when using the POS 1/10 it locks up the POS system when using either save to or email function. 9/10 it does work. Is there a specific call of code that needs to be put in the Access program to reflect the difference between the two? For example, if the code is PDF in access does it need to have PDFCreator or its all the same. I hope this makes sense. Please help

When I'm printing, the software I'm using (Loftware) is prompty a pop up with the message: (M1279) Could not find available paper bins from DLL: windev32.dll
After pressing OK to the warning message the system saves the label in PDF format as required.
My problem is this: I can't use the system without having somebody attending the system for pressing OK to the warning message. Of course printing on any other printer (windows or label printer) I'm not getting any warning.

I know this has been raised multiple times in this forum but I cannot find a solution to this problem. Basically I installed a fresh copy (version 2.5.3) of PDFCreator on Windows 7 Pro machine, then when I go to C:\Program Files\PDFCreator\COM Scripts\JS Scripts\Basics, double-click on one of the example - TestPage2PDF.js, it ran with multiple popup until it hit an error - "Object reference not set to an instance of object".
I have tried using C# form - also present the same problem when the code hit convertTo method.
Can you please help? I can reproduce using version 2.5.2 and 2.4.1 as well.
Please help. Thanks.
