PCL to PDF Conversion Issues

2011/08/24

We provide document management solutions to financial institutions and have a problem with the current PCL to PDF converter that we are using for one of our products.

We currently take in a PCL print stream that was sent to the IP address of a virtual printer. This virtual printer captures the stream and runs it through VeryPDF version 2 to convert the PCL code to PDF. We have discovered that one of our customers sends us 3 separate PCL streams, 1 with form data, and two with what I am assuming is overlay data. I need to find a PCL to PDF converter that will be able to accept the 3 streams that we are receiving through our virtual printer utility and create a single PDF where we call the converter with our Virtual Printer Utility through API calls.

Please let me know if this is something your company can assist us with.

Thank you,
=====================================
Thanks for your message, our PCL to PDF Converter does support “overlay” function, you can overlay some PDF files to PCL converted PDF files easily, please refer to following command lines,

"C:\Program Files\VeryPDF PCL Converter v2.0\pcltool.exe" -templatefirst temp1.pdf -templatefollowing temp2.pdf test.pcl test.pdf
"C:\Program Files\VeryPDF PCL Converter v2.0\pcltool.exe" -template temp.pdf test.pcl test.pdf
"C:\Program Files\VeryPDF PCL Converter v2.0\pcltool.exe" -templateatbottom -template temp.pdf test.pcl test.pdf

If these parameters are still can’t meet your requirement, we can also provide the customized development service to best meet your requirement.

Problems while eavaluating pdf2html

2011/08/24

I'm evaluating pdf2html v.2.0. I have a problem with one file, that pdf2html refuses to convert. The error message is:
Can't extract information from the c:\file.pdf file. Perhaps the PDF file is encrypted. Please double check this PDF file.

But ... that file is NOT encrypted. It was created with Adobe Acrobat X Pro.

I think about buying this Software but I cannot do this as long as there are difficulties with some files.

PDFcamp Printer Technical Sales Question

2011/08/23

We have a large scale cloud app that runs on web server front-ends back-ended by a large database server. We want to email PDF files to our customers that are queued up either by the customer or by batch programs that run typically at night. Web servers are Windows 2008 RS2. We would create and run batch files similar to your examples at, https://www.verypdf.com/pdfcamp/convert-html-to-pdf.html. The app runs under SSL and additional security information would be supplied to each page by URL parameters.

Can you recommend which one (or a combination) of your packages we should use to test capability? If there are multiple choices, can you contrast price vs. server efficiency/impact. (E.g., what has to be installed on the server and how does it impact performance.)

Also, can you tell me if the packages are licensed by server or by domain… or is there an option? I’d like to be able to talk to you, but if you are not able to accommodate that, I understand.

Thanks very much in advance,
=========================================
Thanks for your message, you can install our PDFcamp Printer + DocConverter COM to your server, then you can convert HTML files to PDF files on your server easily.

The cost of DocConverter COM Server License is USD299 per server, you can download and purchase it from following web page,

https://www.verypdf.com/pdfcamp/pdfcamp.htm#dl

our product is licensed by per server, not by domain, you can call it form any number of domain applications.

Questions on doc2any and pdf2img

2011/08/23

Thank you for your excellent help.

Ok i will place an order for the command line version.
==================================
We have created a new version of doc2any.exe to you, please download it from following URL,

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

you can run following command line to get page count from an existing DOC file,

doc2any.exe -pagecount C:\test.doc

VeryPDF
==================================
Hello support team,

I am successfully using your two converters doc2any and pdf2img to show my product to customers.
If everything goes well, i will be placing you more orders as customers adopt my solution.

In order to have even better results, i have some questions and suggestions to improve your product, i hope this information is useful to you and also hope to get your preview releases anytime soon.

So here is the list, please can you comment or answer to those requests?

DOC2ANY

* For Powerpoint files, the converter outputs the number of sheets "'xxx file contains NN sheets". This is very useful to show information to the user.
Can you please standardize this also for Word doc/docx files?

If you remember, i asked you to implement a -pagecount option for word files that works, in this way it would be outputted every time there is a doc conversion.

* Can you output some progress indicator during conversion? Example: page 1/N or just a number 0 to 100.
This is always useful to show some visual indicator of progress to the user.

* I noticed that doc2any cannot be run in parallel, just one instance. That is bad, as the conversion does not consume all of the CPU power, in multi-core machines many instances could be spawned to concurrently convert files.

Why is it like this? Can you remove the limitation?
This does not happen in pdf2img.

PDF2IMG

* Pdf2Img does not have a pagecount option, and getting the pdftools just to have this functionality is overkill.
Could you please include a "'xxx file contains NN sheets" output at the beginning of the conversion?

* Progress indicator is needed here also.

* Doc2any at the end outputs an OK result and some useful information on timing for the conversion.

This does not happens in pdf2img, it would be very useful.
In general, i think your products would benefit if they are standardized in their output.

General questions:

* How can i be notified of newer version/builds of these products? Is there a beta-program?

I am a software developer too, and i know testing is important, so feel free to include me in your beta if you have one.
Hope this questions are useful to you too, and waiting for your answers.
==================================
thank you for the information.

Doc2any.exe does support concurrent conversion, you can run "test-concurrent-conversion.bat" or following command lines to batch convert your documents to other formats at one time,

start "" "%CD%\doc2any.exe" -killoffice 0 -useprinter "%CD%\example.docx" "%CD%\example.docx.pdf"
start "" "%CD%\doc2any.exe" -killoffice 0 -useprinter "%CD%\example.doc" "%CD%\example.doc.pdf"
start "" "%CD%\doc2any.exe" -multipagetif -bitcount 1 -xres 300 -yres 300 -killoffice 0 -useprinter "%CD%\example.docx" "%CD%\example.docx.tif"
start "" "%CD%\doc2any.exe" -multipagetif -bitcount 1 -xres 300 -yres 300 -killoffice 0 -useprinter "%CD%\example.doc" "%CD%\example.doc.tif"

For the other options, we will try to implement them in the future releases, we will let you know after new versions are ready, thanks for your patience.

VeryPDF
==================================
Can you please explain the effect of the "-killoffice 0" option?
==================================

"-killoffice 0" option will not kill the office processes after conversion, if you wish convert more documents to other formats at same time, you need use "-killoffice 0" option.
