Hi I would like to convert automatically from command line:

.\PDFCreator.exe /PrintFile=“C:\Users\kk199\Downloads\data\test.xlsx” /OutputFile=“e:\test222.pdf” /ManagePrintJobs /PrinterName=”PDFCreator Printer” /InitializeSettings

But the file won’t be saved automatically and I have to save it manually in the opened PDFCreator dialog.
I tried to set automatic mode in profiles but now nothing is happening. I am using version 3.
How do I do wrong?

Hallo!
Habe folgendes Problem:
Wenn ich ein Dokument mit pdf-Creator (Version 3.1.1) drucke, wird es nicht als Dokument, sondern als Grafik ausgegeben! So kann ich im erstellten Dokument keinen Text markieren, die Markierung erfolgt blockweise und nicht zeilenweise.
Als pdf-Betrachter verwende ich FoxitReader, das Problem tritt aber auch bei anderen pdf-Betrachtern auf.
Habe schon die Einstellungen im pdf-Creator durchsucht, aber nichts Passendes gefunden.
Was kann ich in den Einstellungen ändern, damit das Problem nicht mehr auftritt?
Vielen Dank für die schnelle Hilfe und liebe Grüße!
Dirk

Hi,
I have been able to follow the example scripts (TestPage2PDF) for the COM server supplied with the install to automate printing of a test page.
My question is does anyone have an example of how to change this from a test page to a html file that I can give a file path at runtime of the file to be converted to pdf?

Thanks & Regards,
Shane.

Hi,

We have installed PDF Creator server and we have a doubt about spooling.

What is recommended, using windows spooling or printing directly to the printer?

Thanks

Hi! We have set up PDFCreator on a remote desk top, and set this up as a virtual printer in SAP. When we are printing to this virtual printer, the document is not saving to the file location specified in the PDFCreator settings

When I print a document manually, from Word for example, its working correctly.

Has anyone seen this before, and are you able to offer any help? We are using Device Type POST2.

Cheers
Carly

Is it possible to (re)print existing PDF to a new securised one with COM Lib in vba?

Please take a look to my issue history before answer me :

1. I tried to print MS ACCESS (2013) report to a securized PFD file. It works but some time I get some error on the PDF file (It look like the printing job was running before ACCESS finish formating the report) (PDF_withPassword)
2. I also tried to print the report with ACCESS without password using DoCmd.OutputTo. It always work (PDF_withoutPassword)

So I want to convert “PDF_withoutPassword” file to “PDF_withPassword” using your COM Lib in vba (ACCESS).
Do you have any idea how to do that ?

Thank for the support

Bonjour,

J’aurais une requête concernant l’enregistrement de sortie de PDF CREATOR.
J’aimerais que lorsque je transforme un document en PDF, ce dernier se sauvegarde automatiquement dans le dossier ou se trouve le fichier initial. (Le dossier peut donc varier pour chaque transformation)
Est-ce possible de le paramétrer ? Je n’ai rien trouvé sur le web.
Je suppose que sa se trouve dans le paramétrage des profils par défaut, ect… Mais malgré de nombreux test, je n’ai pas trouvé la solution.

Win7 / PDFCreator 3.0.2
Merci d’avance pour vos réponses.

Hallo,
ich habe folgendes Problem beim erstellen einer PDF aus einer CAD Software (Revit):
Ich stelle in der CAD Software für die Seitenausrichtung Querformat ein und erhalte bei der Erstellung der PDF Hochformat, wenn ich Automatische Erkennung im PDFCreator Profil treffe.

Wenn ich im PDFCreator Profil auch Querformat einstelle, erhalte ich die richtige Ausrichtung.

Ich habe das Ganze mit der PDFCreator Version v3.0.3 Build 9190 und 3.1.1 getestet.

Ist das Problem schon bekannt?

Als Workaround arbeite ich mit zwei Profilen:

• “” Seitenausrichtung: Querformat
• “Standardprofil - Hochformat” Seitenausrichtung: Hochformat

Ist evtl. ein besser Workaround zum Problem vorhanden?

MfG

Mehmet

I received a prompt to re-activate my PDFCreator Terminal Server license. (It is a yearly license which has another 4 months before renewal.)
I also update the software to version 3.1.1.
I activated Online successfully, but the status shows that the Activation is only good for 7 days. Does this mean I will need to re-activate again (or perhaps weekly??).

I tried with new Form setting (under Print Server Properties), but even if I put all four non printable margins to 0, there is still about 0.25" margin on each edge after print.

I also tried with custom .ppd file during install (/PPDFile= parameter for setup) with no results it seems that parameter doesn’t do anything.

I am using latest version of PDF creator under Windows 7.
