one question again:

i am printing ONE JPG in every loop until ... this results in many queue entries in the printer queue ... works as designed ...
BUT only the FIRST print job saves to file automatically !!
ALL the others pops up a file save-dialog !!!
i monitored this with REGEDIT and the keys the code puts in every loop RIGHT ...
but if the first job finishes the key entry "AutomaticOutput" goes to "0" !!!!!

any idea ?
============================
Yes, if you print more documents to docPrint PDF Driver at same time, the following print jobs will overwrite the settings of first print job, you need wait until first print job be finished completely before you launch a new print job, you need print your documents one by one, please understand this matter.

I've installed now docprint sdk ...
some questions:

- the command "docPrint_Register "XXXXXXXXX", "My Company"" does not work --> error "Sub or Function not defined" in excel-vba

- how can i specify "OVERWRITE EXISTING FILE" when print to file(s) ?
- how can i specify to ignore paper size for JPG file - this means not to print on A4 or something like that and to generate the file only with the image within and not to get "white bars around the image" ?
- it put a string for the filename example "Y:\...\...\XXX_1.jpg" and the driver generates then a file "y:\...\...\XXX_1_0001.jpg" --> i do not want this ...
- it works per default with JPG fine, how to switch for ex. to EMF ?

thank you very much

============================
You can use "DocPrintCom.docPrint" COM interface to try again, "DocPrintCom.docPrint" COM does contain a docPrintCOM_Register() method too, for example,

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
strCmd = " -i """ & sourcePath & """ -o """ & destiantionPath & """ -* XXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
Set docPrint = CreateObject("DocPrintCom.docPrint")
nRet = docPrint.docPrintCOM_Register("XXXXXXXXXXXXXX", "VeryPDF.com Company")
nRet = docPrint.RunCmd(strCmd, 0)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You can above code from VBA easily.

docPrint SDK does overwrite existing PDF file automatically, you needn't specify any additional parameters for overwriting.

Do you wish remove margins from output image files? If yes, you can use trimimage.exe to crop the margins, for example,

"C:\Program Files\docPrint Pro v5.0\psdriver\trimimage.exe" C:\in.tif C:\out.tif

"C:\Program Files\docPrint Pro v5.0\psdriver\trimimage.exe" C:\in.bmp C:\out.png

"C:\Program Files\docPrint Pro v5.0\psdriver\trimimage.exe" C:\in.jpg C:\out.png

Do you want stop add the page header and footer to printout image files? If yes, you need clear the page header and footer options from printing application, such as MS IE or Word or other printing application.

If you wish create the EMF files, you need use docPrint Printer to instead of docPrint PDF Driver, docPrint PDF Driver does support PDF, PS, EPS, JPG, PNG, etc. files creation, but it can't create EMF and WMF files, if you wish create EMF and WMF files, you need use docPrint printer.

You can simple use "-e" parameter to use the docPrint printer, please refer to following command line,

"C:\Program Files\docPrint Pro v5.0\doc2pdf.exe" -e -i C:\input.doc -o C:\output.emf

Your two images have different contents, are they the same picture?

also, do you point to the difference in the margins in converted JPG file? If yes, you can use imgconv.exe to convert JPG to a new JPG file,

"C:\Program Files\docPrint Pro v5.0\imgconv.exe" C:\test.jpg C:\out.jpg

imgconv.exe can convert between different image formats and without change the margins, we hoping imgconv.exe will work fine to you.

1.  What is the difference between setup.exe and setupx64.exe?  Can I always just run setup.exe on any workstation?

2.  There are many other exe files in the psdriver folder.  Are there any that I will need to know what they mean?

3.  I was able to write code to test for when the file was done printing by trying to rename the file and testing for errors.  It seems to work.

Do you think this will be okay to do so that I do not have to access the registry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\verypdf\pdfcamp PrintingStatus=?? for this operation?
========================
setup.exe is an install for x86 system,
setupx64.exe is an installer for x64 system.

Yes, you can always use setup.exe to install the printer, on the x64 system, setup.exe will call setupx64.exe automatically on the x64 system.

addpdfprinter.exe is used to add more PDF printers into system, it is useful for concurrent printing purpose.
batchaddprinters.bat will install 20 PDF printers into system at one time.
convert.exe will convert image format, it is called by PDF Driver internally.
pdfconfiggui.exe will configurate the parameters to PDF Drivers, you can use it to set parameters to more PDF Printers.
pdfcp.exe is call by PDF Driver internally, it will convert PS files to PDF, EPS, TIFF, JPG, PNG, etc. vector and raster image formats.
tiffcp.exe is used to compress TIFF files.
trimimage.exe is used to crop and trim image files, it will remove the margins from image files.
Other DLL files are called by PDF Driver internally.

Yes, try to rename the output PDF file is a good solution, because if PDF file is in use, the rename function will always fail, so you can use rename function to check if PDF file be created completely or not, if the output PDF file is still in use, rename function will failed immediately.

I am not building an API but an online application where the user can drag and drop a PDF into the web page and it generates a PDF. What kind of license would I need to be allowed to do this?

You need to purchase the server license, after you purchased server license, you can call it from your server to convert documents.

We have installed doc2pdf on one machine but don’t want to use that machine anymore, we now want to use another. In terms of transferring the license over, do we just run Add/Remove programs and uninstall from the first machine and then install it on another machine and enter in the registration key? Is there anything else we need to do?
=========================
Thanks for your message, you can simple uninstall the product from old PC, install it to your new PC, register it by your original license key, then you can use it on your new PC properly.

VeryPDF
=========================
Thanks for your prompt reply.

Ok the situation is that on one computer that we’ve got doc2pdf installed on, we get this message when we try to run it manually from the command line to convert a multi page tiff to single page tiffs.

When we uninstall it and install it on another computer we don’t get this message on the other computer. In both cases when we install the program we register it so it’s not a trial version. We perform the same installation steps on both machines so there’s no reason it shouldn’t work in the same way on both.

Can you tell us why the ‘trial version’ message appears on one machine but not another?
=========================
You can delete following item from registry first,

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\verypdf\pdfcamp

Print a document to docPrint, you will see a registration prompt dialog, please input your license key into it, you can register it properly.
