pdf printing tool that runs under Red Hat Linux

2011/07/22

We’re in the market for a command line, pdf printing tool that runs under Red Hat Linux.

We have single Red-Hat Linux server running version 4.8. We have a manufacturing system running on this platform called PICKD3. It's a database system with a custom front end. We run a slew of reports from this system on a daily basis. Some of the reports have PDFs associated with them. These PDFs are usually 11" x 17" drawings created from our engineering department that need to be printed (resized) onto 8 1/2" x 11" paper. We're looking for some sort of tool that can be evoked via a shell script to resize and print these PDFs to a network printer.

Do you guys have such a tool?

Thanks for your reply.

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

Our PDFPrint Command Line product is support Windows system only, it is not support Linux system.

However, we are planning release a Linux version of PDFPrint Command Line application in the future, we will let you know after Linux version is ready.

also, you can try to use WinE to run pdfprint.exe on Linux system, we hoping WinE is a solution for you.

Wine can be downloaded from following web page,

pdf form filler

PDF Form Filler OCX and Adobe Reader 10 (X) compatibility problems

2011/07/22

On a Windows 7 computer with Acrobat 9.4 sometimes I get this message when trying to display an Acrobat form in the VeryPDF activeX control Sometimes it will work and then if I try it again a few seconds later it displays this screenshot below. Any ideas why? Thanks.

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

This is a strange problem, are you using Adobe Reader 9.4? also, just for checking, we suggest you may update the Adobe Reader to latest version to try again, can you work fine with latest version?

VeryPDF

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

I actually downgraded to 9.4 because it was not working in the latest version 10. Any ideas?

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

This problem is not caused by our product, I guess it may caused by special version of Adobe Reader, however, we will research this problem shortly, we will let you know if we have any solution for this problem, thanks for your patience.

VeryPDF

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

Please let me know what can be done because it seems to be happening in both Adobe 9 and 10 on their Windows 7 computers.

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

I have tried Adobe Reader 9.0 + pdfformocx.ocx on 64bit Windows 7 system, everything is fine, can you please let us know how can we reproduce your problem on 64bit Windows 7 system? Can you please tell us the step by step?

VeryPDF

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

I think they had Acrobat Reader X and I uninstalled it and then installed Acrobat Reader 9.4. I made sure they had the latest version of Java but I do not know if it was a 64 bit system. There are three new computers that it is doing it on. I'm not sure what to test next.

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

Thanks for your message, just for checking, do you have a way to reproduce this problem from your computer or your customer's computer now?

VeryPDF

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

If you are around tonight (pacific time GMT -08 / California time tonight) then I may have remote access to the computer that has this problem.

Let me know.

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

You can upgrade to latest version of PDF Form Filler OCX to try again.

We have lots of updates for the core PDF technology, these updates are available for all of our products which based on core PDF technology, include PDF Form Filler OCX and PDF Form Filler SDK and Advanced PDF Tools and other products. After you renewed the gold support, we will compile a new version of pdfformocx.ocx and send to you asap.

doc to any converter

Converting RTF to PDF (Correction)

2011/07/22

I am trying to convert a Rich Text document to PDF, overlay a Form and print. I have accomplished everything when converting a text document but Text2PDF doesn’t work with RTF files. Which application should I use for converting the RTF document to PDF retaining font and formatting characteristics?

Thanks for your great technical support!

I forgot – I am using command line interface. (Important!)

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

Please download DOC to Any Converter from following page to try, DOC to Any Converter can convert RTF files to PDF files from command line,

http://www.verydoc.com/doc-to-any.html

VeryPDF

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

That worked, thank you.

However, in addition to the evaluation warning I also got an error message : "ERROR: connection failed. Please make sure OpenOffice.org is running and listening on port 8100". What does this mean?

Also the conversion of a rather simple document took almost 40 seconds. Is that normal?

Here is the command string I used: ( "C:\Documents and Settings\Paul\My Documents\Advantasoft\doc2any_cmd\doc2any.exe" c:\temp\doc1.rtf C:\temp\doc1.pdf )

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

>>However, in addition to the evaluation warning I also got an error message :

>>"ERROR: connection failed. Please make sure OpenOffice.org is running

>>and listening on port 8100". What does this mean?

Doc2any.exe will try to use OpenOffice to convert your RTF file to PDF file, if your system hasn't OpenOffice installed, you can simple ignore this warning message.

>>Also the conversion of a rather simple document took almost 40 seconds. Is that normal?

>>Here is the command string I used: ( "C:\Documents and

>>Settings\Paul\My Documents\ Advantasoft\doc2any_cmd\doc2any.exe"

>>c:\temp\doc1.rtf C:\temp\doc1.pdf )

This is normal, because doc2any.exe is need some time to render RTF file and print it to virtual printer to create the PDF file, these steps are all need some time, so this time is normal.

Also, when you convert RTF file to PDF file at first time, doc2any.exe will spend some time to install a virtual printer, this time will be saved when you convert RTF file to PDF file at second and following conversions.

html converter (htmltools)

VeryPDF html converter conversion bug

2011/07/22

Hi, I have a simple html page with 2 not animated gif's (saved from Photoshop), and they aren't converted in the PDF, there's only an'empty place.

And there's also an text with a hyperlink, the space before the text with the hyperlink in the pdf is cutted away.

An other problem is that the page in the pdf is centered and not top aligned.

One question, is the conversion Internet Explorer depended or does it have an indipendent conversion engine?

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

Please download latest version of HTML Converter from our website to try again, we hoping the latest version will work better for you,

https://www.verypdf.com/htmltools/index.html

htmltools.exe D:\temp3\estimate_it.html D:\temp3\estimate_it.pdf

VeryPDF

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

Thank you for your fast reply, the file you converted is correct , but I was using VeryPDF HTML Converter v2.0 (GUI Version) to make the tests.

We really need to do the conversion by command line, does it mean we have to buy

VeryPDF HTML Converter Command Line Version v2.1 for 399 US$ ?

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

Yes, you can use "VeryPDF HTML Converter Command Line Version v2.1 for 399 US$" to convert this HTML file to PDF file, HTML Converter Command Line is work better than GUI version, you can always use HTML Converter Command Line to instead of GUI version without any problem.

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

Hi, isn't it possibile to use also VeryPDF HTML Converter v2.0 (GUI Version) by command line? Honestly 400 US$ is too much for us.

Thank you in advance, best regards.

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