I have the developer’s version of PCLTOOL.EXE which I purchased several years ago and it has been working wonderfully. Lately, when I run PCLTOOL.EXE with the –view option, there is a serious delay in either opening the PDF file or, if it opens quickly, there is a significant delay before the window becomes active and my computer is locked from doing anything else until it finishes. Do you know if this has something to do with the latest version of Acrobat?
It seemed to start happening when I had to replace my workstation computer with a 64-bit Windows 7 model. I had a 32-bit version previously. I am not running PCLTOOL on that workstation, however. I use it only to access my server using RDP. Nothing changed on the server. I’m at a loss as to what is causing this but it only happens when using PCLTOOL to create and view a PDF file. I can open any PDF file directly with Acrobat without any delay.
I appreciate any help you can give me as to why this is happening.
Thanks,

We don’t know where is wrong, just for checking, you may remove the –view option, after you processed your PDF file, you can open the resultant PDF file in Adobe Reader directly, can you view this PDF file quickly?
=====================================
I figured out the problem. It was with the version of Acrobat (8.1.5) I was using. I upgraded to Acrobat X and everything is fine again. I just wanted to let you know in case anyone else runs into this.
