Still waiting for a response:

If I have code like the following:

Dim Doc As PDFXEdit.IPXC_Document

How do a load a document from a path using the core api?

docu-track99

You didn't answer my question.

I know where I have to make the change in my code. What is YOUR code method to load a file from a path.

From the list of methods for IPXC_Document it is not at all clear.

I have:

Dim Doc As PDFXEdit.IPXC_Document

How do I load my document into Doc from a path.

docu-track99

So in my example above, what would that look like code wise. I ask, because I had a heck of a time trying to get my code to work initially from your examples.

Hi Tracker, I use the following code to combine multiple files into a single pdf. Once the operation is complete I need to delete the temporary working files. My first input file, in this case "IndexPage.pdf" remains locked until after I close my program. I have been able to verify that it...

Hello docu-track99, Why are you referring to the import settings operation as to parsing? Because we save our custom settings, we therefore have to load, and parse the settings file. Anyways, I've given the settings to the appropriate developer - we'll wait for his reply. Cheers, Alex Thank you.

Hello Support, We have followed the same upgrade path as we had in the past. Namely from .318 to .322.7. The configuration file was DefaultViewerSettings.xcs for 322.7. We had used the code pasted in the original message to parse the *.xcs file. As we are trying to update to 323.2 the code no longer...

docu-track99

Upgrading to the .323.2 SDK for Tracker Xchange. We are experiencing an issue when trying to parse the new *.xces settings file with the library that we have used up to .322.7 for *.xcs. The code we had used is, specifically "op.settings.import": " Dim op = pdfCtrl.Inst.CreateOp(pdfCt...

We would like to emphasize the urgency of this. With the old Tracker Tools SDK you can merge two files without providing a password. (The file has an operations level password, but not an open password.) With the new editor library we can not figure out how to do this. Note that if you use the pdf f...

docu-track99

Hi Alex, There is not a password required to open this document, but rather to perform operations on the document In our old method we were not supplying the password but could do an unecrypt on the in memory object without it. (As shown in example A.) Example B came originally from Tracker, but do ...

docu-track99

Hi, This is an urgent matter for us as a client needs to lock down their software for tax season. For merging PDFs we have switched from the old Tracker tools library to the new Tracker Editor Core. We have found that the new Core functionality is superior in almost every case. Our issue with the ne...

Hi Alex,

Just out of curiosity, is there a time frame for the new release?

The VM that we were using to test on is just "Windows Server 2012 Standard Edition". [attachment=0]WindowsInfo.PNG[/attachment]

Thanks again,
Justin

docu-track99

Hi Alex,

We have a virtual machine we could give you access to if it is needed. If not, is there anything else we could do to help?

Thank you,
Justin

docu-track99

Hi Alex,

Any update on what may be causing the application crash?

Thank you,
Justin

docu-track99

Sorry Willy, I should have explained further. As you can see by the picture, the typewriter box is detectable but the actual text is not visible in the page view (you would have to know it was there to detect it). But when viewed in the print view, the text is visible and red as intended. The issue ...

docu-track99

-_- I knew it was a feature I just missed.

Thank you again Alex. This is definitely going to be the first check I make in the future when someone says annotations don't show.

docu-track99

Yes, thank you Willy. Unfortunately it did not work.

Thanks again Alex. I believe you gave me this email before. Is this the email to always use? Just in case I need to send more documentation.

docu-track99

Hello Stefan, The user is now using the PDF Editor and the annotations do not appear. Again, the print view shows the annotations. I believe that setting may be the issue but I will still send you a copy of the document just in case there is something else at play here. What would be the best email ...

docu-track99

Hello, I am having an issue with annotations not appearing using the Editor SDK. The annotations are not displayed while viewing the document but when presented in the print view, the annotations display properly. I believe this document was created using the Viewer SDK and was wondering if there is...

Hi Alex,

I am able to give you the project. Is there an email I can use to make it available to you?

Thank you,

Hi, My company has recently tried upgrading the SDK we use from 6.0.318 - 6.0.322.7 and we are now experiencing crashes when closing the application. This crash seems to only happen on certain documents (have been able to cause the crash with multiple documents) and even then, only on certain machin...

We have been unable to open this PDF document in the viewer .318 and your latest offering. This PDF can be opened by Adobe and Nitro PDF viewers. Is there a recommendation code wise that will allow .318 to view the PDF after the password has been provided? Sample file has been attached and the passw...

docu-track99

Please have a look at the attached PDF document. When you open it, there is a warning message that appears. Is there a way to programatically suppress this with open arguments?

Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks.

docu-track99

Hello,

I need help determining whether a PDF has a text layer. Is there an example you can show me in vb.net code please? Keep in mind that the PDF has not been loaded into the Viewer. If there is no text layer then we would alert the end user so they can open in the Editor to perform OCR.

Thanks.

docu-track99

"Probably you have not removed the Control entirely and decided to test with the IPXV_Inst alone."

You are 100% correct. I removed the PDF control and the combine worked flawlessly!

docu-track99

Just following up on my previous query.

How do I apply the license when not using the PDFCtrl?

Tried

m_Inst.Init(Nothing, mylickey)

in my previous example but still got watermarks. (mylickey = our licensekey string)

docu-track99

Hi Tracker, Well, almost working! The combine is working, but I get the Tracker Watermarks. I know how to add the license if I am using the PDF control, but can't figure out to add it if I am not using the PDF ctrl. I did try m_Inst.Init(Nothing, mylickey) but still got watermarks. My code is below....

I am close to a solution with this: Dim oInst As PDFXEdit.IPXC_Inst Dim oDoc3 As PDFXEdit.IPXV_Document Dim pAuthCallBack As PDFXEdit.IPXC_DocAuthCallback pAuthCallBack.AuthDoc(oDoc3, 0) oDoc3 = oInst.OpenDocumentFromFile("C:\Users\mbell\Documents\OldMyDocuments\TempTestDoc\TestMedium02.pdf&quo...

docu-track99

But that example uses the PDFCtrl

PDFXEdit.IAFS_Inst fsInst = (PDFXEdit.IAFS_Inst)[b]pdfCtl[/b].Inst.GetExtension("AFS"); //Getting IAFS_Inst from IPXV_Inst
PDFXEdit.IAFS_Name destPath = fsInst.DefaultFileSys.StringToName("D:\\TestImage.png"); //Converting string to name

docu-track99

Thanks for the quick response Alex. I am already using the first link you posted. That part works fine. What I am struggling with is: "Basically you will need to open the documents with the IPXC_Inst and pass them to the operation." What does "open the documents with the IPXC_Inst&quo...

docu-track99

Hi Tracker, We are trying to switch from using the PDF Tools SDK to using the new Editor SDK for merging/combining purposes. I have figured out how to do it programatically using the control and the op.CombineDocs method which I got from sample code you provided. I would like to be able to do it wit...

docu-track99

It works: Here is my working code. Private Sub PerformSilentPrint() Try Dim op As PDFXEdit.IOperation = Nothing op = pdfCtrl.Inst.CreateOp(pdfCtrl.Inst.Str2ID("op.document.printPages")) Dim doc As PDFXEdit.IPXV_Document = pdfCtrl.Doc Dim input As PDFXEdit.ICabNode = op.Params.Root("In...

Hi, The code was given to me by this forum to use about a year ago but since we upgraded to 318 it stopped working. I really don't know what 2553 is supposed to represent that is why I am asking you to for your assistance so I can get it working again. The code provided allowed our program to print ...

docu-track99

Thanks for your response. I have used the Str2ID before but I need the string to pass into it. The code I have shared with you came from you so I never new what the ID represented as a string. Please let me know.

Thanks.

docu-track99

Ok, I need help with changing my code then. If I can't use the number then what should be the proper process or how can I get the ID to use?

Thanks,
Steve.

docu-track99

I have a PDF already loaded via code and the below code stopped working and it used to with build 318. Can you help guide me in the right direction to fixing this, please and thanks? The line "op = pdfCtrl.Inst.CreateOp(2553)" produces Nothing and fails when it is called at Dim input As &q...

Nevermind, I found the AnnotFlag enum which appears to be exactly what we need.

Thanks again

docu-track99

Hello Tracker, As the subject suggests, I am trying to lock annotations programatically, like the way I am able to run a Flatten operation programatically. However, after poking around on the SDK Help, I found I likely want to use op.annots.setProps. I understand the Lock is a property of the annota...

docu-track99

Hi Pat, Though I don't necessarily disagree with your design, I think the expectation is that if I'm signing the document, I should be the one to choose whether to 'Save As' or not. By forcing a 'Save As', it means: if I want to overwrite the working copy then I have to manually browse to the workin...

docu-track99

OK, thanks for clarification. I am not an expert in PDF specifications, but to me it's weird that you wouldn't want to contact Microsoft yourself since this is an issue that would potentially affect all end users of your product.

docu-track99

Hey guys, I have a better sample now. Try opening this in Microsoft Reader or Microsoft Edge to reproduce. If you open the same file in X Editor you'll be fine, even in Adobe Reader DC it seems to open fine. I have been notified the same problem occurs in iOS (on Apple phones, when viewing the PDF u...

docu-track99

Stefan, On this note (and sorry to hijack topic, couldn't find anything related to my question elsewhere), I was wondering why the control forces the user to "Save As" after placing a Digital Signature. Is there an easy way to change this to allow the Digital Signature to be placed on the ...

Hi Tracker, This does not easily reproduce for us, in 318, or 319. that is why we would like to know: 1. What does this error code 40000015 offset 00031302 mean, so that we can perhaps work around it? 2. Is this is an error that was reported in 318, and was intentionally fixed in 319? Many of our us...

Hi Tracker,

Getting frequent crashes when closing PDF editor based on SDK. I have attached image with error code. Could you tell us what this means, and if this is something that we can deal with, or if it requires a code change on your side.

Hi Tracker, We are using the PDF Editor SDK. If you highlight and copy several cells from an excel spreadsheet using ctrl-c and then paste them into the PDF X-change editor, they paste as a non editable image, rather than editable text. When we worked with older versions of the tracker x-change view...

Hello Tracker, If you open a pdf file with text highlighted using Highlight Tool in Microsoft reader, the text behind the highlight disappears on the windows 10 "viewer" application which makes the highlighting tool useless. The problem that we have is that if the PDF is opened by our clie...

docu-track99

Yes that is correct. Will wait for the new build.

Thank you.

docu-track99

So is the fix will be included in future release? if yes, what would be the ETA for that?
