Hello, Having the "PDF-XChange"-ribbons in Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook depends of the product that you install. The required add-ins are only included in the "PDF-Change Pro" bundle and in the "PDF-XChange Standard" printer. Best regards. More info: https://www...

Hello Yogi, Thanks! Your request is indeed seen, but as Vasyl explained it to me - it is complicated enough that the add-on toolbar is created dynamically from scripts in the relevant folders AND having the possibility for documents to add additional buttons there (even if such files are rare!), so...

Hi Vasyl, For me the Addon Tool bar is a fix part of PDFXChange, because I have some Javascripts with userdefined icons I use often. The scripts are always there, so the Addon Toolbar will be there as well, even created at startup and destroyed at shutdown. For me it would be nice to enhance the Ad...

Hi,

So I was on the right track.
Maybe the "add on tools" can be just disabled if there is no Javascript AND no customisation (if customisation will be enabled for this)
for users who don´t need it.

Thanks for considering,
and also thanks to Willy

Kind regards,

Hallo Stefan,

I am not 100% sure, but I think it was installed with the account where it isn't working now.

Just created a new account, it is working. Changed also the ACCOUNT TYPE to standard, new login, working also.

If you need more infos on this topic it is OK for me.

Hallo Stefan,

On my PC I have two accounts, both Admin rights, Win 10 x64
Believe it, on the first account it is working as estimated.
I exported from there the settings, did a reset and reimport at the other account, no success.

Could be a Windows Problem also....

Hello yogi108, PDFs are way more complex than text files - and there are some specification limitations that would restrict us in what we can offer. What you want to achieve would ideally be done with you e.g. using a separate text box/typewriter object for each column - this way you can align them...

Hi, If I edit the content of a textbox using a non proportional font (no "courier new", just arial etc.) what is the best way to have a sort of vertical aligning like a column? A tabulator seems to have a fixed size of about 1,3 cm, didn´t find an option to change it. Sample: Column1.........

So is the problem resolved when you use the document IDs directly instead of "this" ?

Hi Stefan,

Yes, also the extractPages returns the id of the new document, so far so good

Hi,

Thanks for your answer.

For me the workaround is to not use the "this" keyword and use the document object - I am not the profi programmer,
