German special characters in PCL to PDF Converter

Ladies and Gents,

I just downloaded your PCL Converter for evaluation purpose for a
customer project.

It does as far as I see what we needm but I have problems with german
special character like “äÄöÖüÜß”.
The customers output file does not contain a sybol set selection ESC
sequence / PCL command. How can I set the default symbol set for PCL
Convert?

And another question, what I would even like more is not a commandline
controlled PCL converter but a PCL printer; same as you offer with
your product “PDF Print” but just for PCL input files instead of PDF.
Do you offer such a product?
==================================

Can you please email to us your sample PCL file in question? After we checked your sample PCL file, we will figure out a solution to you shortly.

Thanks for your message, we haven't a PCL Printer product yet, if this product is important to you, we can develop this product to you at additional cost, please feel free to let us know if you are interest in custom-build version of PCL Printer product.

VeryPDF
==================================

Enclosed find the input PCL file and the PDF which is generated from it by your tool.
I guess the input file schoudl be processed with PCL symbol set PC-8 D/N Codepage 437 (PCL code "11u").
A soultion would be to just have some parameter with which I can set the default symbol set to be used (if no symbolset command is provided in the PCL input file).

Well I think it not worth to make such effort (and costs); we are fine with the PCL->PDF converter also; just one processing step more (first convert then print).
==========================
Please look at attached PDF file, this PDF file was created by another version of PCL to PDF Converter product, the “äÄöÖüÜß” characters are look fine in this PDF file.

pdfstamp command line

Impossible to stamp copyright symbol to PDF pages

Hi,

I juste use your PDF Stamp command line 2.5, and I would like to write "©Copyright", but it doesn't work : it stamps "®Copyright".

Here is my command line : pdfstamp.exe -pdf "fra.pdf" -o "fra-stamp.pdf" -AT "©Copyright Company" -P9 -R45 -C#666666 -opacity50 -FN301 -FS50

Do you have any solution?

Thank you.

Best regards.
=======================
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused to you, this is a limitation in the current version of PDF Stamp Command Line application, we will try to fix this problem in the next version of PDF Stamp Command Line product, we will let you know after new version is ready, thanks for your patience.

VeryPDF
=======================
Hi,

I have found a solution.
My cmd file is generated by a vbs script.

Before, my code was (exemple version) :
commandStamp = "pdfstamp.exe -pdf ""input.pdf"" -o ""output.pdf"" -AT """ & chr(169) & "Copyright Company"" -P9 -R45 -C#666666 -opacity50 -FN301 -FS50"
fileWrite "text.cmd", commandStamp

In fact, the ASCII code 169 is not known by cmd : we need to use the code 184.

So my code become :
commandStamp = "pdfstamp.exe -pdf ""input.pdf"" -o ""output.pdf"" -AT """ & chr(184) & "Copyright Company"" -P9 -R45 -C#666666 -opacity50 -FN301 -FS50"
fileWrite "text.cmd", commandStamp
Now it works.

Maybe this tips will help you.

Best regards.
=======================
Thanks for your great information, this tip will helpful for all of our other customers, thank you.

docprint pro

Issue with PDF conversion to TIFF in docPrint v4.0

Hi VeryPDF Support team,

For the last 1.5 years, I’ve been importing emails into a scan/index process using v4.0 of the veryPDF DocPrint tool for the job.
We recently started running a new process through and many of its document are not converting correctly (an example is attached).

I’m not sure if it’s due to the version # or the application listed on the PDF or what.
However, we need to find a way to get past this issue so that we can keep processing things.

Also, if the answer is that v4.0 does not support certain newer versions of PDF (i.e. version 1.3 or higher), then fine, but I’d need to know then if the newer version (5.0) fixes these issues or not and what the cost would be to upgrade our license.

Please get back to us as soon as possible.

Thanks,
=============================
docPrint Pro v5.0 can’t convert this PDF file to image file too, however, we suggest you may download PDF to Image Converter from following web page to try,

http://www.verydoc.com/pdf-to-image.html

you can use PDF to Image Converter t convert this PDF file to image file without any problem.

VeryPDF
=============================
So, you’re saying that we should try to set things up to look and see if the extension is .PDF… and if so, then convert that first to an Image.
Then, for all non .PDF documents and for the after-conversion Image files, we would have to run docPrint against that.
Is that right?

is this possible even?  Or do we need to get a different tool now, since docPrint cannot convert all of the doc types we need directly?
=============================
This will not help us unless we can convert anything (the formats that are supported currently with docprint) to TIFF as our existing apps are designed that way.

We also noticed that the PDF files that failed to get converted using docprint had color images on them.
=============================
Thanks for your message, yes, you can call PDF to Image converter to convert PDF files to TIFF files, and call docPrint Pro v4.0 to convert other documents to TIFF files, this solution will helpful to you.

VeryPDF
=============================
also, you can open this PDF file in Adobe Reader, print it to docPrint PDF Driver to create a new PDF file, then you can use doc2pdf.exe to convert the new PDF file to TIFF file without any problem.
