Which one? To have Jaws PDF shown as alternate viewer?

Michael

guebert

Hallo! I've installed Jaws PDF Editor 4, but this application is not shown as alternate viewer in PDF-XChange. Is there any registry key, I can change manually to change this? (Adobe Reader 9 is shown and Jaws PDF Editor is registered by windows correcty (open with ... works) ... see screenshots att...

It works! Many thanks!

Michael

Thx for fixing. I downgraded to 42.0 beta as workaround.

Is there any release date of the next build already known?

Michael

guebert

I vote for this feature request!

Hallo! When using the current release 42.2 I found out, that in the printer settings dialog none of my "default" settings are shown. I set all of my printers to "duplex" and this setting is shown when opening the printer settings dialog in firefox, word, etc but not when opening ...

It's not implemented in 42.2, is it?

Eh?

"By the way, file attachments will be into 42.1 or 42.2 for sure."

Seems to be not supported in 42.1, is it?

Michael

we are expecting the new build by the end of this week - mid -next week - if there are no unexpected delays. PMFJI, but may I ask (once more) if the support of PDFs with attachments will be included? (see http://www.docu-track.com/forum3/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=5507&p=27829#p27832 ) Michael

Are we talking about the same thing (see attachment of my thread):

https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/ ... 07&start=0

We also need this feature or at least a hint, that there are PDFs inside a PDF.

Have you tried to open my "attacment.zip" from my very first posting in this thread? Where do you see an indicator?

Michael

guebert

In my case it's a PDF with PDFs inside. There's absolutely no hint regarding attachments.

Michael

guebert

That's right, so we all have to prioritise - PDFs with attachments are getting more used and a viewer without the capability to show them or even show a hint that there are attachments (might I ask for such a feature being implemented in b42?) is not state of the art. I see many other new features, ...

Bad news.

guebert

Thanks!

Can you tell me the planned release date, please?

BTW, does this next release support embedded media files?

Michael

guebert

Hallo! I have a special CD with text templates. These templates are opened through a index-PDF (see attachement), which contains links to the Word-files. PDFX seems to interpret these links in a wrong manner, because it shows "E:\test\book\ . musterFILENAME.DOC" instead of "E:\test\bo...

Yes, please!

And add a how-to use this code with pdf-x-change, please.

That's good news, so Build 42 is about to be released soon, isn't it?

But ... I'm using 41.3 (not .4) and there's no update available ... ?!

Michael

guebert

Is the date of release already known?

Would it be possible, to add at least a notification feature "There are embedded files inside this PDF!" in V 41.x?

Michael

guebert

Hallo!

From our business partners we get sometimes so called PDFs with "embedded attachments". I can see this only in Adobe Reader, but not in PDF-XChange. When will your tool support this feature?

Michael

guebert

Therefore my post is meant as feature request.

Michael

guebert

Hallo!

Unfortunately all comments are placed above the text when printing. Is there a feature to get these text-boxes places beside the text like MS Word 2003 does?

Michael

guebert

"This PDF form requires a new version of Adobe Reader ..."

Aha. How about a new version of PDF-X-Change?

I'm using 40.7 and theres no update available.

Michael

guebert

I can upload .exe only for private usage and only for testing -- it will not be an official release. Two questions: 1.) Does this fix also solve my problem of getting empty sheets of paper? (see posting above and provided PDFs via PM to you) 2.) Could you send the fixed exe for testing to me, pleas...

Looks like PCL printers has a limit on number of pixels (scaled depends of DPI) into one image block. We had found that this limit is about 4 megapixels. We had modify print images routines to handle this limit, and now all is ok. At least on my HP LJ 2015. Glad to hear, that's ok over there. :wink...

@Ivan: Maybe you have already read my PM to Support "Printing PDF produces blank sheets of paper" --> When printing the attached PDF, I only get two blank sheets of paper. Only when selecting "print as images" it works. I'm also using an HP 2015 PCL 6 driver, but the problem occu...

BTW, a feature like drag-and-drop a "current" view to windows desktop, which creates a link like mentioned above would be useful. (automatically create a bookmark and add this to the link). Even better: "Save current view as" ... with file-dialog to enter a "file name"....

guebert

Try to create a link of a pdf-file (press SHIFT and CTRL while drag-and-drop) and then add

/A "page=2"

before the filename. Windows will shop up an error message.

guebert

Thanks! For your information: Because Windows does not allow links like /A "page=10" "myfile.pdf" I changed the application call like this: [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PDF-XChangeViewer.1\shell\open\command] @="\"C:\\Programme\\Tracker Software\\PDF-XChange Viewer\\pdf-viewer\\P...

Hallo! I would like to create links in my file system to big PDF-files (e-books) and specify, which page to show, when double-clicking this link. eg: PDFXCview.exe c:\folder\e-book.pdf;123 --> opens e-book.pdf and shows page 123 instead of the first page. Is this possible right now? Otherwise, might...

Hallo,

is a new beta already available, including the mentioned fix? I think, it would be best, to provide the beta-releases as portable releases first, because this way it's easier to test them in productive environment.

Michael

guebert

The "new" beta (still build 40.3) from 2:59 pm (https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/ ... 276#p22272) does not fix it, doesn't it? Same problem a with the build from this morning ...

Please see attachment. The crash is reproduceable with the also attached PDF.

Unfortunately the "workaround" seems not to work for all PDFs as you can see in the attached screenshot. I also attached the PDF itself. PDF-XChange sets the paper to C5-format ...

So a real fix is still needed.

Fix will be available into build 40 of the viewer. This build will be available in a week about. The problem is still there (see screenshots attached). I have to go into the printer papter settings an click on "standard" to set paper size to A4 (even the pdf is A4). BUT, when I set the sc...

could you reproduce the problem?

Foxit Reader doesn't handle this all that well. 1. You have to select the underline tool to delete underline markup, in PDF-XChange you can delete any markup with any tool. I guess the result of this is that you cannot also underline highlighted text. In this case, I'd prefer the behaviour of Foxit...
