Print to PDFcamp Printer without Save As dialog in 64bit system

We currently have several licenses for vista32bit machines where we generate PDFs autmatically from our software. Having installed the 64bit version on windows 7 we are unable to perform the same task. Can you please outline how we can set up the save as function.

=====================================

I have had no problems installing or registering the product.

The problem i am having is when i try to convert an excel spreadsheet to a PDF, it asks me where i want to save it and what to call it (save as).

I want it to automatically save it, like it does on our Vista32 computers with PDF Camp Pro (32bit).

=====================================

On the x64 system, please by following steps to try again,

1. Please open "C:\Program Files\PDFcamp Printer (x64) v2.5\config.ini" file in notepad, change the "EmptyFileNameAfterPrinting" to "0", save it, when you print a document to PDFcamp Printer on 64bit system, PDFcamp Printer will not clear the "AutomaticDirectory" value in registry,

[options]

EmptyFileNameAfterPrinting=0

2. Please set following registry items on 64bit system,

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432node\verypdf\pdfcamp

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\WOW6432node\verypdf\pdfcamp

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\verypdf

AutomaticDirectory=C:\out.pdf            Type is: "REG_SZ"
AutomaticOutput=1                                Type is: "REG_DWORD"
AutomaticValue=2                                   Type is: "REG_DWORD"
AutoView=0                                              Type is: "REG_DWORD"

Please double check the "Type" carefully, if you use "REG_SZ" type for "AutomaticOutput" or "AutomaticValue" or "AutoView", your values will not work.

3. OK, please a document to PDFcamp Printer on 64bit system, you will get a PDF file at specified path, it doesn't popup save as dialog now.

If you still have same problem, please create a remote desktop account on your test machine, after we logged into your test machine, we will research this problem for you asap.

==================================
Ok, I performed STEP 1.  (see below, config.ini)
When i went to perform STEP 2. I had problems:

RE:        HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432node\verypdf\pdfcamp
This did not appear to be there.
In   \WOW6432node\  there were lots of other programme related folders  e.g Modzilla

RE:        HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\WOW6432node\verypdf\pdfcamp
There was only items in   HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\verypdf\pdfcamp
The items were there for this, and could be changed as specified below
In the  ...\WOW6432node\     there is only   \Microsoft\
The items were there for this, and could be changed as specified below

RE:        HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\verypdf
This did not appear to be there.
There was no     HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VirtualStore\

When trying to create a PDF now, I get a message:  "Virtual PDF Printer PDFCamp not installed. Please see www.verypdf.com"
I would guess from this error that it is not writing to the registry properly when installing?
===============================

Please by following steps to try again,

1. please download and install 64bit version of PDFcamp Printer from following URL,
 
https://www.verypdf.com/pdfcamp/pdfcamp-printer-x64.exe

2. after you installed it, please go to Printer&Fax folder, you will see a "PDFcamp Printer" in the Printer&Fax folder,

3. please open a DOC file in MS Word application, print it to PDFcamp Printer, you will able to save it to a PDF file,

4. Run "regedit" application from "Start"=>"Run" menu, search "pdfcamp" keyword in registry, set following items to each found registry entry,

AutomaticDirectory=C:\out.pdf   Type is: "REG_SZ"
AutomaticOutput=1                     Type is: "REG_DWORD"
AutomaticValue=2                        Type is: "REG_DWORD"
AutoView=0                                  Type is: "REG_DWORD"

5. Please open "C:\Program Files\PDFcamp Printer (x64) v2.5\config.ini" file in notepad, change the "EmptyFileNameAfterPrinting" to "0", save it, when you print a document to PDFcamp Printer on 64bit system, PDFcamp Printer will not clear the "AutomaticDirectory" value in registry,
 
[options]
EmptyFileNameAfterPrinting=0

6. OK, reopen a DOC file in MS Word application, print this DOC file to PDFcamp Printer, you will get a " C:\out.pdf " file and without "Save As" dialog, everything is fine until this step.


If you still can't get it work, please create a remote desktop account on your test machine, after we logged into your test machine, we will research this problem for you asap.

==========================================
With "C:\Invoices" in the "AutomaticDirectory" it does not make a pdf.

  AutomaticDirectory=C:\Invoices   Type is: "REG_SZ"
  AutomaticOutput=1                     Type is: "REG_DWORD"
  AutomaticValue=2                        Type is: "REG_DWORD"
  AutoView=0                                  Type is: "REG_DWORD"

with config.ini:

  [options]
  EmptyFileNameAfterPrinting=0

Doing these does not give me a pdf file.
I don't want everything saved to the same place (perhaps i wasn't clear
with my examples before, sorry)
I want it saved as follows:

                   AnyDrive:\Any\Directory\Extension\FileName.doc   
-->     AnyDrive:\Any\Directory\Extension\FileName.pdf

So a file in any location is printed in the same folder as the original,
but as a pdf

examples:  D:\Products\Computers\Receipts\000123.xls       -->    
D:\Products\Computers\Receipts\000123.pdf
                     Y:\Readme\Readme File 1234567890.doc            
-->      Y:\Readme\Readme File 1234567890.pdf
(These are just examples, not actual directories/docs)

so saving file in same exact location as a .pdf  without a save as box
confirmation.
=============================================
Hi,

Sorry, PDFcamp Printer x64 hasn't an option to save all PDF files to the folder where original documents inside, however, if you need this function, you can download docPrint Pro v5.0 from following web page to try, docPrint Pro v5.0 has this function,

https://www.verypdf.com/artprint/docprint_pro_setup.exe

after you installed it, you can run following command line to convert your Excel/Word document to PDF file and place PDF file to same folder with original document,

"C:\Program Files\docPrint Pro v5.0\doc2pdf.exe" -i C:\*.doc -o C:\*.pdf
"C:\Program Files\docPrint Pro v5.0\doc2pdf.exe" -i C:\*.xls -o C:\*.pdf
"C:\Program Files\docPrint Pro v5.0\doc2pdf.exe" -i C:\test\*.doc -o C:\test\*.pdf
"C:\Program Files\docPrint Pro v5.0\doc2pdf.exe" -i C:\test\*.xls -o C:\test\*.pdf

You can use "-o" parameter to control output folder easily, you can output the PDF file to any folder that you want.

Doc Converter COM Component has similar function, please refer to following web page,

https://www.verypdf.com/pdfcamp/doc2pdf_readme.html

html2pdf.exe "http://www.google.com" "C:\google.pdf" "papertype=0"

html2pdf.exe "C:\test.doc" "C:\test\out.pdf" "papertype=0"

html2pdf.exe "C:\test.xls" "C:\test\out.pdf" "papertype=0"

  1. Hi Guys & Gals

    My old computer automatically opened the PDF after I made a print using VeryPDF PDFCamp printer.

    Can you point me to the dialogue box that i need to check to be able to do this again as it is cumbersome to have to then open file explorer and open the newly created PDF.

    Hear from you soon and thanks in advance for your advice and support,
    Customer
