In three case, the pre display is fine.

Hallo Community,
nachdem ich den PDFCreator von Version 4.0.4 auf 4.1.0 geupdatet habe, wird der Treiber dieser Software nicht mehr gefunden. Den PDFCreators rufe ich über die COM Schnittstelle über ein selbst geschriebenen Programm auf. Die PdfCreatorComID ist dabei "PDFCreator.PDFCreatorObj" und der Druckertreibername ist "PDFCreator".
[EDIT]
Die nötigen COM Objekte sind bereits erfolgreich installiert worden. Diese habe ich über das Command
`gci HKLM:\Software\Classes -ea 0| ? {$_.PSChildName -match '^PDF\w+\.\w+$' -and (gp "$($_.PSPath)\CLSID" -ea 0)} | ft PSChildName`
bekommen. Als Ergebnis bekomme ich
Bei der Funktion CreateOleObject bekomme ich jedoch immer den Fehler: OLE-Fehler 80131500.
[EDIT 2]
Ich habe nun folgendes PowerShell-Script ausgeführt
try { $app = New-Object -ComObject PDFCreator.PDFCreatorObj; echo $app; } catch { $e = $_.Exception $msg = $e.Message while ($e.InnerException) { $e = $e.InnerException $msg += "`n" + $e.Message } $msg }
und bekomme als Ergebnis:
#New-Object -ComObject pd

Nun habe ich die Frage, ob an meinem Programm etwas falsch ist oder ob die Installation des neuen PDFCreators fehlerhaft ist.

Hi! I updated the program to version 4.1.0 and found that my VB.NET application stopped working. Your example (COM_TestForm) does not work either. I rolled back to version 4.0.4 and it worked.

I just updated PDFCreator Free from 3.5.1 to 4.1.0. After update, I saw an unexpected welcome page for the Adaware antivirus product.
I use this product since more or less 18 years and, even if I liked the minimalist interface of the first version, I still continued to use it because I know it quite well.
Since some years, the free version is paid with crapware that you must remember to unflag during installation. This is one of the reasons why I update other tools in my PC at least monthly, but yours just once a year or less: It's a frustrating process and the new features are not always worth the anxiety of finding some unwanted rat in your hdd.
Now, I don't know if I was sleeping or what, but this time I got this "gift". Well, whatever software gets on my computer, I want to be the one that decides it, right or wrong. Not you.
So, it's time to say goodbye: I didn't pay a penny for 18 years and your work deserves to be paid... by someone else obviously.
I wish you a bright future.
Best regards

Dear all,
for certain reasons which I can't explain here in depth, I have to start a certain application using another user account. That is, I login into Windows using my normal account and then start this application from a cmd32 window, executing a command like that:
runas /user:OtherAccount c:\path\to\application
The problem:
When I try to print to PDF Creator from within that application, the usual PDF Creator windows does not appear.
Some notes:
I have configured PDF creator as needed for my normal account as well as for the other account. That is, I logged into Windows using the other account and configured PDF Creator. Then I logged out and logged in again using my normal account and configured PDF Creator.
I have verified that PDF creator works flawlessly in my normal account and in the other account (by printing some test documents in each of the accounts).
Printing to PDF Creator from within that application worked flawlessly with previous versions, even when the application had been started using another account (by the method shown above). Until two days ago, I was happy; then I installed the update to 4.1.0, which broke things. I have made the bad mistake to not note down the version of PDF Creator I had installed before; I can only say that it probably was several months old (not more than a year).
Even though the PDF Creator window does not appear when I print to PDF Creator from within the application, when the application has been started using another account, PDF Creator actually runs the respective print jobs: When I start PDF Creator manually using that other user account (that is, when I right-click on the PDF Creator icon, select "Run as different user" and enter the other user's credentials), I can see the PDF documents which PDF Creator has generated before.
So how can I restore the old behavior, i.e. make the PDF Creator window show up immediately after having printed to PDF Creator from within an application which has been started using a different account?
Thank you very much in advance!

Hi, We have been battling an increase in users suggesting there is a fault with PDFCreator when sending documents to print (we have it set to email back a converted PDF).
The symptoms are that they never receive a PDF. It seems however that after a bit of hunting around and discussing the problem we have a group of users who are sending encrypted PDFs to print in an effort to split the document and receive back another PDF with only the pages they need.
The event log shows
"This PostScript file was created from an encrypted PDF file.
Redistilling encrypted PDF is not permitted."
Has anyone come up with a way of alerting the users to the fact that this is correct behaviour? I'm thinking about maybe a return email with some guidance about how they cannot redistill this type of document and offering alternative options.
Anyone come up with any clever solutions?
Thanks

Hallo, seit kurzem kann man beim interaktiven PDFCreator beim Zusammenfügen vieler Druckjobs angeben, nach welchem Kriterium die Druckjobs - vor dem Zusammenfügen - sortiert werden sollen.
Gibt es für die COM Schnittstelle auch einen entsprechenden Befehl (z.B. PDFCreatorQueue.Sort(ID), der sämtliche Druckjobs in der PDFCreatorQueue z.B. nach der ID (aufsteigend) sortiert, so dass dann die sequentiellen Aufrufe von PDFCreatorQueue.NextJob die Druckjobs in der Reihenfolge in Dateien speichert, wie Sie auch erzeugt wurden?
Ist es realistisch, dass so etwas zeitnah umgesetzt wird?
Beim generieren von Dutzenden oder hunderten Druckjobs, ist es nicht gerade sinnvoll zwischen zwei Druckjobs jeweils eine Warteschleife von 1,5 bis 2 Sekunden zu setzen.
Ich verwende die COM-Schnittstelle unter VBA Excel.

Guten Tag
Wir haben den PDF Creator Business lizensiert. Die aktuelle Version ist 3.5.1.
Wenn ich diese Software mit der EXE verteile, dann bleibt mir diese hängen, weil eine Notification über das neue Update erscheint und das nicht abgefangen wird. Installiere ich mit der MSI und starte danach, dann bekomme ich die Meldung, dass die Version 4.0.1 oder noch höher verfügbar wäre. Allerdings ist das PDFCreator Professional.
Den PDFCreator Business 4.0.1 kann ich aber nicht herunterladen, der existiert gar nicht.
Im Gegenzug kann ich bei der Installation von PDFCreator Professional den Lizenzschlüssel nicht mitgeben. Dort würde der Download allerdings klappen.
Wie genau funktioniert das mit diesen beiden Varianten? Kann mir da mal jemand auf die Sprünge helfen? 3.5 => Stable, 4.0 Testing?
Besten Dank im Voraus.
Freundliche Grüsse

Hallo an alle
Ich versuche mit dem PDFCreator eine "unterschriebene" PDF zu erstellen. Im Profil habe ich die Zertifikatsdatei benannt und das Passwort hinterlegt. Die weiteren Optione erst einmal leer gelassen.
Bei Erstellung der PDF poppt die Fehlermeldung (siehe Überschrift) auf.
Einträge und Änderungen in den weiteren Optionen haben nichts gebracht.
Beim "Zeitserver" habe ich alle angebotenen Server getestet.
Das Zertifikat ist per "makecert" selbst erstellt und kann manuell per Acrobat eingefügt werden.
Hat jemand einen Tipp wie ich das Problem lösen kann?
Herzliche Grüße aus Mannheim

Hi,
I currently have a new problem, I am looking to automatically save my pdf files in a folder. Unfortunately I noticed PDF creator (4.1.0) bugger when printing and crashed the print service (print spooler).

Bonjour à tous
J'utilise Acrobat DC pour visualiser/modifier mes PDF, bien plus pratique et moins gourmand en ressource que PDF Architecte (birk)
Mais depuis la dernière mise à jour, je suis obligé de gérer mon lecteur PDF manuellement, car sinon PDF Creator ne sait par reconnaître mon lecteur par défaut.
Serait-ce une tentative de forcing de la part de Pdfforge !?
Bref, je vais finir pas abandonner c'et outil pourtant très pratique et rapide.

I've seen other users with the same question but they have different siuations to me (and some are quite old) so apologies but can someone please tell me how to print a 12inch by 15inch PDF (That's landscape). I'm printing from Word to the PDF Creator printer. I go into Printer Properties/Advanced, select the Postscript Custom Page Size and set it to Width 15 inches, height 12 inches. OK that and print - and I get a landscape US Letter sized document. If I select A4, I get A4.
I saw on a previous post about creating a custom paper size using Windows Print Management, which I have done. I can then select this paper size but it still prints a landscape US letter sized document.
Interestingly if use the PDF Architect printer then it happily prints the 12x15 document - but then I can't select the PDF Creator profile that I have set up to specify PDF/X and CMYK (which are required).
Any help gratefully received. Windows 10 and PDF Creator 4.1.0

I use PDF creator to print the final report from a batch run in a siemens software. everything looks perfect but after a while, I had a case that the items on the file has moved randomly and everything misplaced.
it gets worse and worse by the time and I am not sure what happened.
I was wondering if there is anything I needed to set up or is there any solution for this case?
I am using version 4.0.03 and I cannot upgrade it as it has been used widely in several machines.
Thanks,

Hello,
Previously after using PDFCreator, once I printed to it to create the PDF, the PDF would open automatically. Now after doing so I need to manually open the PDF. How can I set it so that the PDF automatically opens after printing to PDFCreator again? Thank you.
