PDF XChange Forum

Hello Bob, We are already discussing the actual case via e-mails. The difficulties with "Report a problem" you've experienced are because we do need a means to receive information from your machine, and using an e-mail report is nice, both because you can see all the files you are sending,...

Please also check

Objects.Notifications.Keyboard:
2.2.2.10.7 Keyboard

And if the user presses e.g. "v" - you can check if Ctrl is also pressed and not yet released. (No Key Up notification).

Best,
Stefan

Hello Dorwool,

Please check section 2.2.4 Simple Notifications in the Viewer AX Manual,

Starting from there you should be able to intercept any key, or combination of keys - and either do nothing or execute the default viewer action for the key accelerators you want to keep active.

Stefan

Hello Dorwol, There are a myriad of ASCII variants, and the ASCII value interpreted at your end as "ä" could be a Greek Sigma (Σ) (Windows 1253), or the letter "д" in a Cyrillic version of the codetable (Windows-1251). So ideally OCR_LoadA() should only be used if all of the symb...

Hi James, Yes I thought of exactly such a scenario - with lots of architectural documents where zooming might be more wanted, but still - there is no way currently for you to reverse that. As for the wheel click - this seems to be controllable in the mouse drivers, and I've set that to "zoom&qu...

Hello avenash, Yes - seems like we were speaking for different aspects of the Viewer menus. No other way to control the appearance of toolbar buttons (or hide/unhide them one by one) in the current version of the Viewer. Ver3 will bring changes to this in May, but for now you will need to set all to...

Hello avenash kabeera, Yes - disabling a command doesn't remove it from the main menu list. Please check the attached image (from the C# Commands Demo). The Save is disabled because the file has not been modified since opening, "Save As" is Enabled, and SaveCopyAs is turned off - and you c...

Hello elasoni,

Please make sure that your "pdf" is a pointer to a _PXCDocument.
Also are you getting any error codes as a result from the execution of PXC_AddFontW? Or does it return a non negative integer? (which would mean that the function succeeded)

Best,
Stefan

Hello Dorwol,

I will pass this to Walter, and he will advise here in this topic a bit later today.

Stefan

Hello harishdahal,

Yes - we did release a new build (201) on 23 Jan, so please be sure to download and install it:
https://www.pdf-xchange.com/product/downloads
And all should be well.

Best,
Stefan

Hello Avanesh, This is also mentioned in the documentation under "How to disable a command" - but you need to set the state to Online. The last parameter in SetProperty is for flags and not for controlling the offline state. The correct one should be this: SetProperty("View.Bars[\&quo...

Thanks ChocolateFactory, After further investigation on this case, we believe that there are some Group Policy restrictions that are denying launching applications from withing applications (and Firefox needs to launch our Viewer AX component, and this component needs access to PDFXCview.exe and PDF...

Hello neeeko_, Could it be that when printing through our Viewer you have the "print as images" option selected? This will create significantly larger (and slower to print) files that need to be sent over your network to the server. Please try with turning this option off and you should se...

Hello James, It's not currently possible to reverse the mouse wheel for thsoe two particular commands, but we've done it this way as for most documents you need a lot more scrolling than zooming. Actually you usually zoom a given file just once - and then spend significantly more time reading it so ...

Hello Harry, While we do not have such an invisible spacer (as most of the requests are to have as few and as compact buttons as possible) - you can add a vertical line. To do that - have the customize toolbars menu opened, and then right click on any button that is already in the toolbar - in the d...

Hello Jeff, The only thing I can think of is printing each e-mail separately to our printing drivers, and use the same filename for all prints. This will prompt you that such a file already exists - and ask you for an action. Simply select to "Append to" - and the final result should be a ...

Hello relapse,

Our Viewer AX will not automatically return notification to your main control for any mouse/keyboard input inside the Viewer - so please check section
2.2.2.10.8 Mouse
of the Viewer manual which will let you know how to get information about mouse events in it.

Best,
Stefan

Hello mjesecbekrija,

I'll discuss this with my colleagues from the dev team, but I don't think there is currently a way for you to increase this limit to more than 100.

Best,
Stefan

Hello Harry, Yes the small triangle with the "Reset this toolbar" and "customize toolbars" - is the last component in every toolbar in our Viewer - including the default ones, and those that you create yourself. It will be there for every toolbar you have. The solution is to crea...

Hello ChocolateFactory,

After discussing this with one of my colleagues he said he is unable to reproduce the problem so could you please describe what you are doing step-by-step so that we can try to reproduce the process and the error.

Stefan

Hello John,

You should have updated the files to the latest build to see the OCR button.

I will now ask one of my colleagues dealing with OCR to comment on using it directly in the Viewer, and on the ways for you to disable and hide the OCR commands from the Viewer interface.

Best,
Stefan

Hello derchef1959,

Please try to set a default profile through Start -> Devices and Printers -> PDF XChange 4.0 -> Printing Preferences - and it should be used as the default profile each time Word is restarted.

Best,
Stefan

Hello John, It's strange that you can see the OCR in the AX of build 194 - as we introduced it with build 200 :) In any case - yes the OCR is a separate module, and in order to use it you will need a Pro SDK license. You can find more info on the OCR SDK here: https://www.pdf-xchange.com/pdfxocrmod ...

Thanks aguerot,

We will investigate those and reply here when we have any additional info.

Best,
Stefan

Hello again Volker, After discussing this with one of my colleagues I am afraid that the "problem" is that software that was using ver3 of our drivers was able to use the end user version - with all the benefits, disadvantages and troubles (especially on TS) this brought. Ver4 of the stand...

Thanks for the samples Michael,

We are now investigating your samples and will post anything we find directly here in the topic.

Best,
Stefan

Hi Volker, We also received your e-mail. We could continue the communication here if you prefer, and as per my e-mail could you please confirm that I understood the situation correctly: 1) Our stand alone driver works correctly (and you have some profiles set up with e.g. watermarks in them). 2) Sag...

Thanks ChocolateFactory,

We are still discussing this in the team and will post back here as soon as we have any additional info.

Stefan

Hello ChocolateFactory, Our plug-in is usually stored in the FireFox folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\plugins and he will need read access to this. He will also need write access to the folder where FireFox stores it's temporary files The default should be: C:\Users\<<USER NAME>>\AppDa...

Hello JanL,

Please open this link in IE:

Hello Bob, It's not currently possible to select multiple objects in our Viewer. This feature will be coming in ver3 of the same. Until then the only way to "copy" more than one annotation is to export and then import them back - but this will only work if you want them to be on the same p...

Hello xchguser, We will need an actual sample file for testing, but it could be that those links are "meant" to look like this - e.g. the tool that created them added the border, and this border is then visible in all PDF Viewing applications - including our Viewer. We will know more once ...

Hello Ashley, Please take a look at sections 2.2.1.30 NewDocumentFromImages (for a sample in pseudocode on how to pass the list of images) and 2.2.2.11.5.2 FromImages (for the rest of the parameters you want to set) Of the Viewer AX Manual, which I believe will guide you in the right direction. Best...

Hello jeffp, The Viewer has a few more error correction features - and that's why it does handle the file fine, while the xcpro doesn't. I doubt anything can be done in v4 with v5 so close to release. So let's see if such error corrections will be present in ver5 of our SDKs, and if not - I will mak...

Hello aguerot,

May we ask which is the antivirus used on those machines.
Also are those files locally available from the hard drive on the affected PC or from a network and if they are on a network location - have you tried temporarily disabling the firewall(s) as well?

Best,
Stefan

Thanks for trying the latest build aguerot,

We will now investigate this further.

Best,
Stefan

I can not make any promises in this respect Sphax,

But we will do all we can to expand on the OCR functionality once ver3 of our Viewer is released.

Best,
Stefan

Hello Sphax, I am afraid that I can't clearly understand what exactly you are trying to achieve. Also are you interested in our end user or developer products? For now our products are only capable of working with PDF files and the viewer to import/export comments and form data to fdf/xfdf files - a...

Thanks for the details Frank,

We will now discuss this in the team and come back to you with any further questions or suggestions.

Best,
Stefan

Hello Sphax,

I am afraid that the current OCR module we offer is only accessible through the Viewer itself, and is not intended for silent batch processing.

Best,
Stefan

Many thanks for the comment Ben,

That's indeed true - and will allow Peter to quickly open the PDF in the stand alone Viewer.

Best,
Stefan

Hello Peter,

You can try the F12 key, or alternatively you can try to hide all the menus in the frame - and thus leave it all for just reading the document - this should make much room for reading especially in tight frames.

Best,
Stefan

Hello Frank, This is the first time I see this, and as you say it only happens on a given machine - could you share some more details for it (e.g. OS Version and service packs installed, is it a 64 bit one - as it seems from your description, etc.) Also is there a chance of a hardware failure on tha...

Hello xchguser, Please check that you are using the latest build of our Viewer (go to Help -> About inside it), and if you are not using build 2.5.201 - then please download and install it from here: www.tracker-software.com/PDFXVwer.zip As what you are experiencing might have been an old problem th...
