PDFCreator always opens in center of monitor screen


How do you remove other instances in VBA?

@MHarradine wrote:

I was previously using PDF creator 1.7 with MS Access VBA script. To detect if the another instance was running I used.

Do
bPDFRestart = False
Set PDFjob = New PdfCreatorObj

                'PDF Creator is already running.  Kill the existing process
                If PDFjob.cStart("/NoProcessingAtStartup") = False Then
                    Shell "taskkill /f /im PDFCreator.exe", vbHide
                    DoEvents
                    Set PDFjob = Nothing
                    bPDFRestart = True
                End If
            Loop Until bPDFRestart = False

But recently I have upgraded to PDF Creator 2.3.2 so that I can install the same version on all the machines that will be using the database. I have been through the documentation and now check to see if the if another instance is running using the following

iCount = 0
Do
MsgBox iCount
bPDFRestart = False
Set PDFObj = CreateObject("PDFCreator.PDFCreatorObj")

                'PDF Creator is already running.  Kill the existing process
                If PDFObj.IsInstanceRunning = True Then
                    Shell "taskkill /f /im creator-ws.exe", vbHide
                    DoEvents
                    Shell "taskkill /f /im crash-handler-ws.exe", vbHide
                    DoEvents
                    
                    Set PDFObj = Nothing
                    bPDFRestart = True
                End If
                iCount = iCount + 1
            Loop Until bPDFRestart = False Or iCount = 10

Bu this does not seem to shutdown the instances of PDF creator and loops through 10 times before I stop the process.

I have used task manager to try to find the running instances and can only find running services. Is there an easier way to do this?

PDF Creator print disappears in print queue, never prints, no save option appears

PDF Creator 2.3.2 Print in the queue disappears from the queue after it's supposed to print.-No save box option appears. Is there anything that can be done? Besides uninstalling, reinstalling....or uninstalling and reinstalling a different version? Because I have done it all. Permissions are right on too. I have been troubleshooting for days now, nothing is working. Help!

Plötzlich leere Seiten mit dem pdf-Creator

@uabi wrote:

Hallo zusammen.

Grad vorweg:
Ich bin ein simpler Anwender und habe keinerlei Programmierkenntnisse. Ich nutze den pdf-Creator seit Jahren erfolgreich im Unterricht und privat zum Erstellen übergrosser pdf-Dateien. (Familienforschung / Stammbäume) Bislang klappte dies stets erfolgreich.

Ich nutze Win 7/32bit und mit diesem Betriebssystem diverse eher weniger bekannte Programme für meine Familienforschung. Bis vor ein paar Tagen den pdf-Creator 1.7.3. Mich dünkt es, dass nach einem grösseren Update von Win 7 sich dieser "Fehler" eingeschlichen hat.

Beispiel:
Ich will ein pdf mit der benutzerdefinierten Grösse 800 x 1300mm erstellen, ist das pdf zwar erstellt, jedoch ohne jeglichen Inhalt. (leere Seite) Das Erstellen von kleineren Seiten (A4 etc.) klappt nach wie vor hervorragend.

Nach einigen Versuchen deinstallierte ich die Version 1.7.3 und aktualisierte auf die neueste Version 2.3.2 mit genau demselben Ergebnis.

Was mache ich bloss falsch?
Beste Grüsse, Uabi.

Hallo PDFCreator-Community

Bei uns in der Firma möchten wir nun die Digitale Signatur mit dem "qualified certificate" einführen. Leider scheitere ich bereits vor dem Signieren, da ich mein Passwort aufgrund des ausgegrauten Buttons nicht bestätigen kann.

Hatte jemand das gleiche Problem oder weiss, woran es liegen könnte? Ich freue mich auf eure Rückmeldung.

PDF Creator Asp.Net on server

@mozila11 wrote:

Hi There,

I've an application which requires users to upload a document in .doc or .docx format and I have to convert it to PDF.

In my code - I'm calling an exe which will call pdfcreator.exe with command line arguments.

Code :

var psi = new ProcessStartInfo(System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["pdfcreator"])
{
Arguments = "/PrintFile=\"" + path + key + ext + "\" /PrinterName=\"PDFCreator3\"",
UseShellExecute = false

        };

        var p=Process.Start(psi);
        p.WaitForExit();

It runs very well on local muchine. But after deploying to server it stucks at some point.

I'm using Open Office as word application.

I'm running this under Administrator account.

Any ideas to help?

thnx

Presto! + PDFCreater (not always) saving scanned document

@tom2 wrote:

Hi all,

I use Windows 10 x64 with 3 different users, which are all Administrators.
All users have the same config:
RICOH Aficio MP 171SPF printer
Presto! which is configured to "numerize" to PDFCreator
Doing a Preview works on all 3 users.
When closing, for one user: PDFCreater launches, I can choose options to save and finally Adobe opens with the newly scanned document in PDF. Perfect!

For the 2 other users: The document is printed. It is not saved, anywhere (automatic saving is not enabled in PDF Creator)

The 2 'broken' accounts are from my parents, they say it just stopped working...
I have updated PDF Creator to the last version as of 29th of August 2016.

I haven't been able to find anything related, I will keep looking through the forums.
Any help hugely appreciated, thanks.

PS:
Using Presto! with ie Page Manager (instead of PDF Creator) does work... But I'd like to find the reason behind it not working

Urgent Urgent How do I get these programs off my system?

@taylor1277 wrote:

OMFG, I moved to help my fiance's mother who is battling cancer. I am looking for employment and I need to access my resumes in pdf format. Well I thought these two programs would help, they have just made my life more miserable. Because they won't let me upload my resume, they won't let me use any other program. How do I get PDF Creator and PDF Architect 4 off of my system. Usually and most times 99.9% of the time Iobit Uninstaller gets rid of a program when I need it to. Well at least PDF Architect 4 is still taking over my system. Can someone please send me a removal tool or some direction to remove it. And can i ask why we are still making programs that overtake systems and embed themselves so deep in the operating ssytem where they don't need to be. Thank you. Help would be great as soon as someone can help me get rid of these programs. I am running Windows 8.1 x64 Home Edition
