2011/06/21

I have purchased the PDF2IMAGE tool and did receive the keycode. However, as soon i start de command line tool (pdf2img.exe), i still being redirect to the website without conversion has executed.

What do i wrong?

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

It seems the PDF to Image Converter Command Line application has expired, please run PDF2Image GUI application, input your license key to it,

"C:\Program Files\VeryPDF PDF2Image v2.1\PDF2Image.exe"

Then you can run PDF2Image Command Line application from CMD window properly,

"C:\Program Files\VeryPDF PDF2Image v2.1\pdf2img.exe"

Convert a very long HTML file to PDF

2011/06/212011/06/28

Dear Verypdf Support Team,

attached you find a html and a pdf File which I generated with following command line:

C:\TEMP\MMAITS\HTMLShell\htmltools.exe -$ "XXXXXXXXXXXXXX" -playemf2 -emfheight 1125 -margin 20x20x20x20 -wtext "Test Watermark" -wh 12 -wx 210 -wbox "0,0,500,10" -wc "FF0000" "C:\TEMP\TestHTML.htm" "C:\TEMP\TestHTML.pdf"

The problem is, that the conversion always stop after 1306 lines, equals 20 pages at the PDF File (see html and pdf file). Is this a error of your conversion tool, or do I have to use different parameters to get all data from the HTML converted?

Please let me know, when I can expect a answer of my problem.

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

Because this HTML file is too long, htmltools.exe can't convert so long HTML file to PDF file properly, this is a limitation of Render engine of IE Control. However, we have another solution to you, you can download our HTMLPrint to Any Converter Command Line from following URL to try, HTMLPrint to Any Converter Command Line is able to convert any length HTML file to PDF file properly,

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

http://www.verydoc.com/htmlprint2any_cmd.zip

after you download and unzip it to a folder, you can run following command line to convert your HTML file to PDF file,

html2any.exe -printtopdf D:\temp5\TestHTML.pdf D:\temp5\TestHTML.htm

You can hide the printing preview dialog by "-hidewindow" option,

html2any.exe -hidewindow -printtopdf D:\temp5\TestHTML.pdf D:\temp5\TestHTML.htm

if you encounter any problem with HTMLPrint to Any Converter Command Line, please feel free to let us know.

VeryPDF

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

thank you for your fast response.

I can't agree with your explanation.

For our application Software I use the same IE Control to display the HTML file and I never found any limitation within this engine.

If the Internet Explorer Control had any limitation, it would be not possible to display all 2000 lines of the HTML file, too (see HTML file from last mail).

Could you please give me a different solution of this problem.

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

Yes, IE Control can display and print long HTML file without any problem, but it can't render the long HTML file to a memory metafile properly, maybe it is caused by memory limitation in IE Control, this problem is exist in ::Draw() function of IE Control, we had worked on this problem long time, but no luck.

Yes, we have other solutions to you, htmltools.exe does support "-html2pdf2" option, you can use this option to convert long HTML file to PDF file, for example,

htmltools.exe -html2pdf2 D:\temp5\TestHTML.htm D:\temp5\TestHTML.pdf

"-html2pdf2" option does analyse HTML directly, it doesn't call ::Draw() function of IE Control to render long HTML to a memory metafile, so it is support long HTML file.

"-html2pdf2" option is not support "-wc" parameter yet, you can run following command line to add the watermark to your PDF file without "-wc" parameter,

htmltools.exe -$ "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" -playemf2 -emfheight 1125 -margin 20x20x20x20 -wtext "Test Watermark" -wh 12 -wx 210 -wbox "0,0,500,10" -wc "FF0000" -html2pdf2 D:\temp5\TestHTML.htm D:\temp5\TestHTML.pdf

we hoping "-html2pdf2" parameter will work fine to you, please to try.

VeryPDF

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

Thank you for the support.

The "-html2pdf2" parameter worked for the simple example very good.

For the final HTML file with data, images and colored Text it doesn't work quiet good. The normal text is displayed in big colored letters.

See the 2 files attached.

Is the new "-html2pdf2" parameter not valid for colored Text like the Watermark, or do I have to use different parameters?

I used your posted calling sequence

htmltools.exe -$ "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" -playemf2 -emfheight 1125 -margin 20x20x20x20 -wtext "Test Watermark" -wh 12 -wx 210 -wbox "0,0,500,10" -html2pdf2 D:\temp5\TestHTML.htm D:\temp5\TestHTML.pdf

to create the pdf File.

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

Your HTML file is contain mismatch tags, for example,

This is the original HTML code,

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

<tt> Flight No.: 1</tt>

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This code is contain two tags, but it doesn't contain "" tags, you need use tag to end the font tag, please modify it to following code,

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

<tt> Flight No.: 1</tt>

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Then you can use "-html2pdf2" parameter to convert this HTML file to PDF file correctly.

Also, "-html2pdf2" parameter doesn’t support color watermark yet, we are planning add this minor function into the next version of htmltools.exe application, we will let you know after new version is available. In the meantime, you can insert the demo watemrark into original HTML file before conversion, "-html2pdf2" parameter will convert this demo watermark into output PDF file too.

VeryPDF

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

now it is working. Thank you for your help! I'm just curious, where is your office located?

You are right, the HTML Tag for the Font was missing. I generate the HTML file during the application automatically and I forgot the closing Tag.

With the Watermark, I can survive with the black letters.

Just a note for you. With the "-html2pdf2" parameter the text for the watermarks is a little faulty.

For Example:

"TextTextTextTextTextTextTextText" is ok, Pdf File is generated

"Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text" no Pdf File is generated!

Anyway maybe you know that already.

One more question: Is there a possibility with your Tool to add pagenr. into the converted PDF file?

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

Thanks for your message, we will research these problems shortly, we will include the fix for this problem into the next version of htmltools.exe, we will let you know after new version is ready, thanks for your patience.

>>One more question: Is there a possibility with your Tool to add pagenr. into the converted PDF file?

Thanks for your message, what is your meaning for the "pagenr"? do you wish add the page number to each page in PDF file?

VeryPDF

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

ok therefore I receive your mail this early in the morning.

Yes it would be good, if I can add the pagenr on every page in the PDF, like the watermark, only as a footer.

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

Thanks for your message, htmltools.exe hasn't an option to add the page number to each page yet, however, your suggestion is great, we will try to implement this function in the future releases.

docprint pro, pdfcamp printer

PDFcamp Printer set output filename

2011/06/212011/06/23

We have successfully used PDFCamp with pre-versions of Windows 7 with automatically creating PDF files then emailing automatically. We have some users that will be getting new Windows 7 PC and I guess your new PDF Camp doesn’t have the ability for us to say where the files should be located. Per your recommendation we have tried to use the docPrint Pro v5.0 where we can input where the files should be located. The docPrint Pro v5.0 is very slow in processing and causing us major problems in trying to run this program that always ran without issues. With the docPrint Pro v5.0 I have had to put delays in my program to slow the process down and am having to increase these delays which is not good. We are also having inconsistancies with your program not always running.

Is there another software or solution to make the docPrint Pro v5.0 run faster like the old PDF Camp software we were running? Or do you have some other solution for us.

I have a hard time understanding why a software company would take away features when upgrading like you did with the PDF Camp, since the old version worked great for what we were trying to do.

Please let me know what options are out there for us.

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

>>Is there another software or solution to make the docPrint Pro v5.0 run faster

>>like the old PDF Camp software we were running? Or do you have some other

>>solution for us.

The speed of docPrint Pro v5.0 can’t be increased again, however, you can download DOC to Any Converter from our website to try, DOC to Any Converter can be used to batch convert MS Office documents to PDF files,

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

http://www.verydoc.com/doc2any_cmd.zip

after you download and unzip it to a folder, you can run following command line to convert your DOC files to PDF files,

doc2any.exe C:\test.doc C:\out.pdf

You can also call it from your application to do the batch conversion, we hoping this product will helpful to you.

Also, original PDFcamp Printer Driver does support "set output filename" function too, if you are using 64bit Windows 7 system and PDFcamp Printer x64 v2.5 version, please refer to following solution,

1. Please open "C:\Program Files\PDFcamp Printer (x64) v2.5\config.ini" file in notepad, change the "EmptyFileNameAfterPrinting" to "0", save it, when you print a document to PDFcamp Printer on 64bit system, PDFcamp Printer will not clear the "AutomaticDirectory" value in registry,

[options]

EmptyFileNameAfterPrinting=0

2. Please set following registry items on 64bit system,

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432node\verypdf\pdfcamp

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\WOW6432node\verypdf\pdfcamp

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\verypdf

AutomaticDirectory=C:\out.pdf Type is: "REG_SZ"

AutomaticOutput=1 Type is: "REG_DWORD"

AutomaticValue=2 Type is: "REG_DWORD"

AutoView=0 Type is: "REG_DWORD"

Please double check the "Type" carefully, if you use "REG_SZ" type for "AutomaticOutput" or "AutomaticValue" or "AutoView", your values will not work.

3. OK, please a document to PDFcamp Printer on 64bit system, you will get a PDF file at specified path, it doesn't popup save as dialog now.

If you still have same problem, please create a remote desktop account on your test machine, after we logged into your test machine, we will research this problem for you asap.

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

I don’t see any of the things he indicated

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432node\verypdf\pdfcamp

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\WOW6432node\verypdf\pdfcamp

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\verypdf

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

I had try to do the PDFcamp Printer Drive registery as you suggested in your second option and she could not find the settings you were referring to in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE... and the HKEY_CURRENT..., attached is what she has in those two files. As far as the HKEY_CLASSES... she couldn’t even find that file. Where are these settings or how do you get them in their so we can test the PDFCamp Printer Driver.

Your other option 1, where to download DOC to Any Converter, you mention that it can be used to convert MS Office Documents to PDF files. The programs we use are in a software called Magic and I have custom programs for Miller. During the report generation I send the GUI document to the PDF Camp Printer Driver so I’m not really building a text or doc report/file it builds directly to a PDF file or I send it to the printer. If going to a PDF driver it takes the name of my I/O file and then I rename and continue on with another record that might go to another output I/O file and again I rename when it is generated. I have not downloaded this software yet because I want to see what you have to say first.

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

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused to you, we suggest you may run regedit.exe to open registry editor application first, search “pdfcamp” keyword, set following items to every found item,

AutomaticDirectory=C:\out.pdf Type is: "REG_SZ"

AutomaticOutput=1 Type is: "REG_DWORD"

AutomaticValue=2 Type is: "REG_DWORD"

AutoView=0 Type is: "REG_DWORD"

after you modified all found "PDFcamp" items in registry, please print a document to PDFcamp Printer, then you will get a "C:\out.pdf" properly.

pdf print

Print a PDF file by a URL on web

2011/06/212011/06/21

our company needs to know if the product can use a URL to send PDF to print. And also the names of the file can change in a program just to send to print the file.

I hope somebody answer our question.

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

Thanks for your message, PDFPrint.exe doesn't support PDF URL, for example, the following command line is not work,

Pdfprint.exe "https://www.verypdf.com/test.pdf"

However, you can use wget to download this PDF file to local disk first, then you can print the PDF file from local disk again, for example,

Wget -O test.pdf "https://www.verypdf.com/test.pdf"

Pdfprint test.pdf

We hoping above solution will helpful to you.

image to pdf converter

Batch convert all TIFF files in sub-folders to PDF files

2011/06/212011/06/21

To whom it may concern,

I’m currently using VeryPDF Image2PDF to convert a large number of small TIF files into PDFs. I’ve not had any luck getting the application to process them how I’d like. My data is basically organized like so:

D:\Data Files\

D:\Data Files\0\

D:\Data Files\0\a.tif

D:\Data Files\0\b.tif

D:\Data Files\0\c.tif

D:\Data Files\1\

D:\Data Files\1\d.tif

D:\Data Files\1\e.tif

D:\Data Files\1\f.tif

D:\Data Files\2\

D:\Data Files\2\g.tif

D:\Data Files\2\h.tif

D:\Data Files\2\i.tif

I want to tell the application to go into D:\Data Files\ and for any TIF, create a PDF of the same name, in the same directory the TIF is in. I’ve tried the ‘convert multiple directories to multiple PDF files’ option, but I ended up with 0.pdf, 1.pdf and 2.pdf, instead of a, b, c, etc. Convert multiple image files to multiple PDF files runs, but I don’t see it creating any PDFs in 0, 1, or 2. I haven’t figured out where they’re going yet, but there are a bunch stored.

I’ve kept “Save to original directories with corresponding filename” checked the entire time, as it’s a nested structure, and I have way too many to do, to want to do them by hand.

Is there a way to have it scan recursively through all the data in D:\Data Files\ and leave PDFs of the same name wherever a TIF exists?

Any help would be sincerely appreciated.

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

Thanks for your message, we suggest you may use the Image to PDF Command Line product to do the batch conversion, Image to PDF Command Line product can be used to do this work easily, for example,

The following command line will convert all TIFF files in D:\temp folder and its sub-folders (recursion) to PDF files, place output PDF files to same folder as original TIFF file,

for /r D:\temp %F in (*.tif) do "C:\VeryPDF\img2pdf.exe" -o "%~dpnF.pdf" "%F"
