Page Number in faxable TIFF file

2011/07/072011/07/12

We are having another issue when converting pdf2img, which is that only the first page of the fax comes through. We think it is related to the pagenumbers in the tiffinfo.

BAD fax - only one page comes through:

TIFF Directory at offset 0x5f8e (24462)

Page Number: 1-1

TIFF Directory at offset 0x11e50 (73296)

Page Number: 2-2

GOOD fax:

TIFF Directory at offset 0x8 (8)

Page Number: 0-2

TIFF Directory at offset 0x608c (24716)

Page Number: 1-2

Here is the documentation regarding how the pagenumber should be set up for faxing:

-----------------

PageNumber(297) SHORT

RequiredByTIFFforFAX, TIFFExtension

Count = 2

The first number represents the page number (0 for the first page);

the second number is the total number of pages in the document. If

the second value is 0, then the total page count is not available.

No default, must be specified

-----------------

Basically 0 should be the first page. then it should have a - and then the total number of pages or 0 if unknown.

Ex.

Page Number: 0-2 (THIS IS PAGE 1 OF 2 PAGE FAX)

Page Number: 1-2 (THIS IS PAGE 2 OF 2 PAGE FAX)

Page Number: 0-0 (THIS IS PAGE 1 OF UNKNOWN PAGES)

Page Number: 1-0 (THIS IS PAGE 2 OF UNKNOWN PAGES)

Please fix and send us a new version as soon as possible. Thank you.

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

We have fixed this problem to you, please download the new version from following URL to try again,

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

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

Thank you but that did not work. The page numbers need to start from 0 (as I wrote below)

For example:

TIFF Directory at offset 0x8 (8)

Page Number: 0-2 -- this is page 1

TIFF Directory at offset 0x608c (24716)

Page Number: 1-2 --this is page 2

In addition, the license key is no longer working and I get a watermark on my converted page. Please address these 2 issues as soon as possible. Thank you.

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

I have tried pdf2fax.bat file, it is report the following information,

tifftools\tiffinfo.exe test_fax.tif

The page number is "Page Number: 1-2" and "Page Number: 2-2", they are all right.

Can you please let us know what command line options that you used? Can you please create a test package for us to show this problem?

VeryPDF

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

I'm sorry but you are not understanding. The page numbers have to start from 0 not from 1

Page 1 should say 0

Page 2 should say 1

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

Hi, as I said before, The first page number should NOT start with 1, it MUST start with 0.

Please see this link...

text to pdf converter

Text to PDF batch conversion using wildcards?

2011/07/072011/07/09

Can your product convert using wildcards, such as:

C:\>"C:\Program Files\Text2PDF v1.5\txt2pdf.exe" C:\InputDirectory\*.txt C:\OutputDirectory\*.pdf

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

You can run following command lines to batch convert lots of text files to PDF files at one time,

for %F in (D:\temp\*.txt) do "C:\Program Files\Text2PDF v1.5\txt2pdf.exe" "%F" "%~nF.pdf"

for %F in (D:\temp\*.txt) do "C:\Program Files\Text2PDF v1.5\txt2pdf.exe" "%F" "%~dpnF.pdf"

for %F in (D:\temp\*.txt) do "C:\Program Files\Text2PDF v1.5\txt2pdf.exe" "%F" "C:\test\%~nF.pdf"

//You can use following one command line to batch convert all of your files at one time easily,

#1: Convert all TEXT files to PDF files in D:\temp folder,

for %F in (D:\temp\*.txt) do "C:\Program Files\Text2PDF v1.5\txt2pdf.exe" "%F" "%~dpnF.pdf"

#2: Convert all TEXT files to PDF files in D:\temp folder and sub-folders (recursion),

for /r D:\temp %F in (*.txt) do "C:\Program Files\Text2PDF v1.5\txt2pdf.exe" "%F" "%~dpnF.pdf"

#3: You can do batch text to pdf conversion in .bat file, but you need use "%%" to instead of "%" in .bat file, e.g.,

for %%F in ("D:\temp\*.txt") do "C:\Program Files\Text2PDF v1.5\txt2pdf.exe" "%%F" "%%~nF.pdf"

#4: You can convert all text files from current folder to PDF files in .bat file, %CD% is the current folder, e.g.,

for %%F in ("%CD%\*.txt") do "C:\Program Files\Text2PDF v1.5\txt2pdf.exe" "%%F" "%%~nF.pdf"

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

The batch scripts work great but I am having a problem with the top of page character in the text file. I have attached a copy of the txt file that contains the top of form character. The client is using 14” wide x 8.5” wide and I am using the following script in a batch file:

for %%F in (e:\cd_record1\asi\files2pdf\*.txt) do "D:\Program Files\Text2PDF v1.5\txt2pdf.exe" "%%F" " e:\cd_record1\asi\PDFFiles\%%~dpnF.pdf" "-pps43" "-width1008" "-height612"

Is there some parameter that I can do to recognize the top of form character? This is a print file from a application that is renamed with the txt extension.

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

Thanks for your message, Text to PDF Converter can’t recognize the top of form character, you need remove or modify it by yourself before conversion, please understand.

pdf print

Help with VeryPDF PDFPrint Command Line v2.0

2011/07/07

My company is looking for a solution for printing a SQL Server Reporting Services Report using a SSIS package that is coded in VB. This report creates 1 or more PDF files that are saved to a folder on our Network. I have put code in to then, using ShellExecute, send the PDF files to a printer using your PDFPrint.exe utility. The files print and they duplex which is what we need but it doesn’t print the number of copies that are requested. Everything else works correctly. I just have the trial version of you software that I downloaded today and if I can get the number of copies to work we would be interested in the product. We would run it on a server so that it would always be accessible when users run reports that require the reports to print automatically. I am currently running the product from my PC that has Windows XP but this is not where it would run if we purchased the product.

My ShellExecute code is : Result = ShellExecute(0, lpOperation, lpFile, lpParameters, lpDirectory, 1)

My lpOperation variable contains : lpOperation = "\\lt78\C$\TestPDF\pdfprint_cmd\pdfprint.exe"

My lpFile contains: \\wat-TS01\test\

My lpParameters contains: -printer "\\verypdf\lpcduple" -duplex 3 -copies NumCopy

My lpDirectory contains: ""

My NumCopy variable is filled from the prompt variable that comes from the screen when the user selects the report(s) they want to run and the number of copies they need to print.

As I stated above the reports are going to the printer and they are duplexing so your product works for that part. They just are not printing multiple copies when they are selected. I have played around with the syntax but still have not gotten it to work,

We tried a different utility but they had absolutely no documentation or examples to follow so we were never successful in getting theirs to work. Their support was awful as well so I went looking for another solution and found your product. It surprised me when it worked the first try after all the problems I had had with the other product which really pleased me. I just hope I can get the number of copies problem solved.

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

Please add "-setcopyto" parameter to try again, for example,

"\\lt78\C$\TestPDF\pdfprint_cmd\pdfprint.exe" -printer "\\verypdf\lpcduple" -duplex 3 -copies NumCopy -setcopyto C:\test.pdf

Can you work fine with -setcopyto parameter?

VeryPDF

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

I tried your suggestion of the -setcopyto but it still doesn't print multiple copies. I thought maybe it wasn't picking up my variable for the number of copies so I tried hard coding the number of copies as -copies 3 but that also did not print multiple copies. Do you have any other suggestions? Maybe there is something in how ShellExecute works that is messing things up. Do you know of any other way to run command line code from a VB program?

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

Just for test purpose, please run following command line in CMD window by manual again,

"\\lt78\C$\TestPDF\pdfprint_cmd\pdfprint.exe" -printer "\\verypdf\lpcduple" -duplex 3 -copies 3 -setcopyto C:\test.pdf

Can you get 3 copies when you run above command line by manual in CMD window? Is this problem appear in your VB code only?

VeryPDF

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

I did not get 3 copies when I ran the command with the -setcopyto parameter in the command but when I ran the command in the CMD window without the -setcopyto parameter I did get the proper number of copies. Since I couldn't get the -copies parameter to work I created a loop in my program and I could print the proper number of copies that way. I want this to run in the background without user intervention but I keep getting a message box asking me if I am sure that I trust and want to run this application. Do you know how to stop this message from coming up every time I send some through your application or does it go away when I register the application? Here is the message box I am talking about.

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

This warning message box will appear if you run an EXE from network path, you may copy pdfprint.exe and DLL files to local disk instead of run it from network path, this warning message box will disappear.

We have been using doc 2 any for about 6 weeks without error converting approximately 900 documents a week. We have SQL stored procedure that calls the Doc2Any application when there is an RTF file in a designated directory.

Just this week we have started having issues with the application generating errors as seen below.

Can you help resolve this?

If you still have same problem, please feel free to let us know, we will assist you continue.

VeryPDF

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

DEP is turned off.

Is there a limit on the number of conversions that can be made with this application? Seems odd that the application was working without error and all of the sudden stopped.

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

The registered version no maximum number of PDF pages limited. It is also no limitation on maximum number of PDF files which can be processed at one time.

If you encounter any problem with it, please feel free to let us know the details of your problem, after we reproduced your problem in our system, we will figure out a solution to you asap.

VeryPDF

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

Below is all of the information that I have concerning our failing doc2any application.

The SQL below is the stored procedure that is run to call the conversion application. We are taking the output (RTF) of another application and using Doc2Any to convert the RTF to PDF. The command string that is built by the stored procedure is correct. We know this because if we take that string and run it as a batch file from the system command line the conversion runs successfully. The only difference I see is that when you run the batch file from the command window you are running it under the logged on users credentials and when the stored procedure runs it is being run under a system service account.
