Problems of PDF printing

Posted on

Ive been very pleased with you software. I use stamp and print,

but a couple of questions.

1)
I use pdfprint from my program and run it via a dos command

xApuOhjPolku = '\\progress\'.

xPdfPrint = '_pdfprint\pdfprint.exe "-$" "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"'.

xPdfprint = xApuohjPolku + xPdfPrint.

xDosCMD = xPdfPrint + ' -chgbin 15 -printermargins -paper 9' + ' c:\progress\test.pdf'.

DOS SILENT VALUE(xDosCMD).

most of the time it works but with some documents it doesn’t.

for example with this one some numbers appear in a completely different position than if I print it directly from windows.

2)
DO you have a suitable program for me.
Now I open a explorer browser from my program straight to the folder that contains the wanted pdf files.
Explorer is not good in showing previews of pdf files
What I would like to do, is to open a separate program where you would see a list of all the files and when clicking on it there would be a nice preview of the file. The possibility to do some small changes to the file would be nice. Is there a layer option in PDF files.
=====================================
1). This problem maybe caused by font issue, we suggest you may add -raster2 or -useembedfont parameter to try again, these parameters may work better for you,

pdfprint.exe -raster2 C:\test.pdf
pdfprint.exe -useembedfont C:\test.pdf

2). Thanks for your message, we haven’t a PDF Preview application, I’m using Windows 7 and Acrobat 10, I can preview the PDF files in Windows Explorer easily, so I suggest you may use Windows 7 and Acrobat 10 to preview your PDF files, this can be done easily.

VeryPDF
=====================================
xDosCMD = xPdfPrint + ' -chgbin 15 -printermargins -paper 9 -useembedfont' + ' c:\progress\kuva.pdf'.

and now it seems to work, at least with this one.
=========================
Thank you for your message.

Returncodes / exit values from pdf2img. exe

Posted on

I'm trying to integrate pdf2img in java code, using java.lang.Runtime.exec()

Runtime run = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process p = null;
try
{
p = run.exec("\"C:\\Program Files\\VeryPDF PDF2Image v2.1\\pdf2img.exe\" -m -i C:\\test.pdf -o C:\\test.pdf.tif");
int salida = p.waitFor();
System.out.println("exitValue: " + salida);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
It seems to work; i get the tiff output and an exit value of 0 (By convention, 0 indicates normal termination)

But! - if I provoke an error - specifying a non exitsting directory, I also get exit value 0 (and an empty tiff-file.!)

I have also invoked VeryDOC  doc2any the same way, and it returns 1 meening succes and 0 when an error occurred.

Can you help me how to detect errors using pdf2img?
==================================
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused to you, maybe this is a problem in the current version of pdf2img.exe application , we will research this problem shortly.

Additionally, I suggest you may simple check the input PDF file before you deliver it to pdf2img.exe application, if input PDF file is not exist, you needn’t call pdf2img.exe application for conversion, this can be done easily, is this solution okay to you?

docPrint Document Converter Command Line

Posted on

I'm using the document converter via command line.

But I'm having the following problem. When we are generating a document from a .doc to a .pdf simultaneously, the doc2pdf.exe and pdfcp.exe get queue and won't generate any document, is there a way that I can solve this problem.

doc2pdf.exe -s permission=0 -s keylen=0 -i "D:\CRM_Documentos\Incidentes\928993\word\928993.doc" -o "D:\CRM_Documentos\Incidentes\928993\word\928993.pdf"

Thanks for your help.
=====================
Thanks for your message, doc2pdf.exe doesn’t support concurrent conversion, if you wish convert more DOC files to PDF files, you need convert these DOC files to PDF files one by one, please don't launch a new instances of doc2pdf.exe until previous doc2pdf.exe process exit, please understand this limitation.

HTML2PDF and PrintHTMLBackground=yes

Posted on

running the command line:
html2pdf "%CD%\testbackground03.htm" "%CD%\testbackground03.pdf" "PrintHTMLBackground=yes,KillProcess=no,doc2pdf_service=yes"

The tool is installed as a service.

The pdf file does not have the background color as specified in the original html file.  I have attached both the html file and the generated pdf file.

Here is an image captured of the html file when viewed in IE 8.0:

Here is an image captured of the pdf file when viewed in Adobe Acrobat Professional 6.0:

The command line parameter “PrintHTMLBackground=yes” does not seem to work.  I have tested changing the background color as well as setting a background image – neither background is generated into the pdf file.
================================
Please look at attached screenshot, you can select “Print background colors and images” option in IE to try again, we hoping this solution will work fine to you.

VeryPDF
================================
I have already tried setting that option in IE.  See the attached images.
It does not make HTML2PDF generate a PDF with the background image or color.
================================
The issue is that doc2pdf.exe is running as a service, and that service is using the “Local Account” credientals.
The local account’s IE setting for “Print_Background” needs to be set to “yes”.

I edited the “Print_Background” registry key at HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\PageSetup to be “yes” and re-ran one of my test html files.  This causes the background image of the html page to correctly appear in the generated PDF.

It would be nice to have the command line parameter “PrintHTMLBackground” setting temporarily set the IE “Print_Background” registry setting to match the command line parameter just while the single job is being converted.
================================
Thanks for your message, “PrintHTMLBackground” option will set the IE “Print_Background” registry in the current active user account, but your doc2pdf.exe is run inside “Local Account”, so the IE which called by doc2pdf.exe can’t read “Print_Background” registry item properly, this is the reason of this problem, we will try to solve this problem in the future releases.

However, your solution is great, your solution will helpful for our other customers in the future, thank you.

PDF Extract TIFF SDK does flip the TIFF image files

Posted on

I am interested in both the PDF Extract TIFF developer component and the PDF to Image Converter COM Component as the extract TIFF is faster and the Image converter is more flexible and I have different needs for both options.

Is there any discount to buy both components or must I purchase each separately?
====================
I recently purchased the PDF Extract TIFF COM API and it works on most files I receive just fine. On some files, the Images are rotated, so I added code to detect the rotation command and fix the image.
However, for the attached PDF, the PDF indicates a 180 rotation, yet the resulting TIF is actually mirror imaged not rotated. If I manually remove the rotate command from the PDF, the image within PDF displays upside down.

It seems like the COM API has a bug with 180 rotated images in that it flips them instead of rotates them.

Can you please advise
====================
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused to you, PDF Extract TIFF COM will ignore “rotate” option in PDF file, it will simple extract images from PDF file and save to TIFF files.

However, we have a PDF to Image SDK product, the PDF to Image SDK product does take care of “rotate” option in PDF file perfectly, do you wish exchange your PDF Extract TIFF COM Developer License to PDF to Image SDK Developer License? If yes, please feel free to let us know, we will arrange an exchange to you shortly, this exchange is free.

VeryPDF
====================
No, the other sdk is much slower to extract the page. I am taking care of rotate on most files by reading the file and rotating the extracted images as a post process.

I am curious as to why on this file with a rotate 180, the image is actually flipped not rotated. I can't find any reason for the image being flipped.
====================
It seems this is a limitation in the current version of PDF ExtractTIFF SDK product, we will research this problem shortly.

In the meantime, you can use following sample code to extract TIFF files from this PDF file properly,

PDFExtractToTIFF_SetOptions("bQuickTIFFExtraction", "0");
pagecount = PDFExtractToTIFF("C:\\test.pdf","C:\\out.tif",1,NULL,NULL);

You can set "bQuickTIFFExtraction" to 0 to extract TIFF image from this PDF file properly.
