In consultation with a colleague we have noticed that you are calling clear to release the PDF printer object before printing has completed. You must wait until the print job has completed before clearing. Ideally you should trap the events fired by the printer but I'm not sure if NAV can handle eve...

What is the text of the prompt? Is it the warning about changes not taking effect unless the file is saved? If not, could you tell us the text you receive in the prompt? If yes, I will find out if there is a way to disable it. Also, if you could post the call you are using to initiate the RotateCW c...

Is it possible that you need to escape the backslashes specifying directories in the filename and path? Is there a filename already set in the save dialog box, when it opens?

Can you try passing the PXCVA_NoUI flag to the Flags argument?

Here is the enum:

Code: Select all

enum PXCVA_Flags
{
PXCVA_NoApply       = 0x00000001,
PXCVA_NoUI          = 0x00000002,
PXCVA_GetNamed      = 0x00000004,
PXCVA_Sync          = 0x00000008,
PXCVA_OutArgs       = 0x00000010,
};

Hi! Yes, first I made the usercontrol as I saw it in this example: C:\Program Files\Tracker Software\PDF-XChange Viewer SDK\Examples\<<Your programming language>>\PXCView36, what you suggested to me. The problem with that, it's very slow, because it's drawing with the onpaint event every time I scr...

Assuming you are properly setting the ShowSaveDialog option in the correct scope you shouldn't have a problem with dialog boxes opening. Can you provide a more complete example so we can trace through the main application logic?

Walter-Tracker Supp

Hi, Could you please try upgrading to the current build (201)? https://www.pdf-xchange.com/product/downloads It is possible that the developers have already resolved this issue, as there are numerous bug fixes between build 188 and 201, so it would be best to try this before proceeding further. -Wal...

Walter-Tracker Supp

High level pro functions don't support this and you may be able to accomplish it through the low level functions but we do not provide support for this as it requires low level knowledge of PDF structure. We provide the low level API for the use of those who have extensive knowledge of the PDF forma...

Sorry, it is not in the VBExamples that I downloaded from your site. There is no example of the PXCp_AddTextAnnotation function in the VB6 sample you listed. I was able to find it in the VBNetExamples folder and adapt it. Oh, my apologies. I thought it was in there. The paradigm for usage is basica...

Walter-Tracker Supp

I do not see any obviuos problems with this code, but I need you to clarify the other questions I asked regarding the intermittency of this problem.

Walter-Tracker Supp

I would have to check with the other developers to confirm this, but yes, this feature will likely be in version 3 but we will not be adding it to version 2.5.

-Walter

Walter-Tracker Supp

It turns out that this version of RTF import does not support headers; you can use the PDFXchange driver to print this document from word to PDF, or Office2PDF for batch conversions. To accomplish this in a programmatic way, you can use the driver API.

-Walter

Walter-Tracker Supp

I have confirmed that the method does not include the header; will check with the developers of this product and see if there's a way to remedy this.

-Walter

Walter-Tracker Supp

Thank you for this report; we will look into it with the sample you submitted and get back to you soon.

Yes, this is possible; you have to allow multiple documents and multiple instances as described in this knowledgebase article: https://www.pdf-xchange.com/knowledgebase/239-How-do-I-use-multiple-instances-of-the-viewer Once you do this you can open the same document twice and view different pages.

Yes, we have a VB6 example in:

(Directory may change depending on your installation directory).

Walter-Tracker Supp

Hi, Glad to hear you have got the interface sorted out. However, we still have some work to do it seems. Most importantly, can you clarify what you mean by "sometimes?" Does it display the dialog box whenever you try to save a file, or do you really mean that sometimes it does not display ...

I was a little bit imprecise in my previous response: PXCComLib is a namespace in one of the C# demos but it is also the progid used for the COM DLL (as registered in the windows registry) which you can use to retrieve the printer interface via the class factory IPXCControlEx / CPXCControlEx. The ba...

Hi, I have been unable to build your VB6 project - however I will still do my best to help you.

Could you try adding only a single watermark, using the same image. If this fails, try to do the same with a different image and see if this works?

-Walter

Yesterday I managed to draw a rectangle I needed but the restriction is - it must be a new pdf document. It's a pity! :D Now I'm trying to delete line annotations directly in dictionaries. By the way I can create a line annotation of any thickness with the function PXCp_AddLineAnnotationW, there is...

I would like to announce that in response to a couple of queries, we have made a C# demo and wrapper available that will let you easily make use of the OCR SDK in your C# applications. You can look at Form1.cs for example usage for creating searchable PDFs. All you must do is include PDFXOCR_Funcs.c...

Walter-Tracker Supp

Here is the fixed C# demo application.

Walter-Tracker Supp

This seems to work partially, however it does not seem to persist any changes made to the actual printer. Ie if you change any printer properties those only seem to affect the initial document being printed out when the print dialog opens initially. I believe printer properties are handled by the p...

Walter-Tracker Supp

Please note that I have found a bug in the wrapper; an "int" type has been used for some pointers, where in fact an IntPtr type is needed to ensure full interoperability for both 32 and 64 bit versions. I am making the changes and will post an update shortly.

Walter-Tracker Supp

PXCComLib is just a namespace in C# (and a COM progid in the windows registry.) I cannot see anything wrong with your get_Printer() syntax, unless it turns out that you should be using the C++ version and passing a CPXCPrinter pointer as the last argument (I don't know how NAVISION works). -Walter H...

Walter-Tracker Supp

Please try placing each watermark (text, and then image) in isolation to help narrow down which one might be causing the problem.

It could be something as simple as failing to load the image from disk (e.g. incorrect path).

-Walter

Walter-Tracker Supp

I will check to see whether it is possible to do this with one simple command (save all print settings), but in the meantime you can do it with GetProperty and SetProperty. E.g.: After opening the print dialogue and printing, save the setting for "Collate" with: HRESULT hr = m_spView->GetP...

Walter-Tracker Supp

There is no simple way to split those pages with the SDK since they are really just large single pages. You could attempt to have a go at it using the low level PDF structure manipulation functions, but this will require good knowledge of the PDF format, and you may have to deal with splitting image...

This is not currently possible with the Active-X viewer, however if you have the FULL PDF-XChange Pro SDK (not just the Viewer SDK) with the OCR DLL, you can accomplish it that way in a fully automated manner.

-Walter

Walter-Tracker Supp

You cannot use the Viewer SDK or the Viewer Active-X control for this. We have a Tool SDK and Pro SDK which let you retrieve images and place images on pages, but there is no direct way to replace images with other ones. You could place new images over top of old ones, as something of a workaround. ...

Hi Stefan Another confusing point (pardon the pun) is the FontSize in Section HeaderFooters. This has a similar description "Specifies font size for the text. Font size is specified in tenth of point" but also states "Default value: 100" Is the default really 100 point or is tha...

No problem. It's been on the TO-DO list for awhile and your request was the final push we needed.

Ah, found it. In Word 2010, go File->Options->Advanced. Scroll down to the "Print" section and uncheck "Scale content for A4 or 8.5x11" paper sizes".

Walter-Tracker Supp

I have been informed that the issue is that word has an option to automatically resize to letter or A4 depending on your location (e.g. Europe or the Americas). There is a switch somewhere in Word to turn this off; in older versions of office it is under the Print->Options->"Allow A4/Letter res...

Actually we do not currently have an OCR C# sample, however this is something we are hoping to add in the next little while. I realize this does not help you much, as you are looking for a solution right now, but we added the OCR SDK as a free bonus feature a couple of months ago and as such have no...

Walter-Tracker Supp

Walter, Thank you for your response. Do you or your driver experts know if there is a way around this? Can we somehow fool Word with the Tracker API? Might there be a way to simulate that you're another type of driver? or somehow not allow responses from Word on print driver types? This is basicall...

Walter-Tracker Supp

Okay, what I suspected (and have confirmed) is that our driver is not a postscript driver, so you cannot send postscript commands (as they are ignored). Word's API is kindly informing you that our printer is not compatible, and so you'll have to work with that in order to determine how to ignore the...

Walter-Tracker Supp

I will need to check with one of the driver experts (developers); I have an inkling of what's going on but I want to be sure. I'll get back to you as soon as I can get some time with him (this morning).

OnDocSpooled is triggered once the document has been sent to the print driver (but possibly before it has been saved as a PDF) - e.g. before the user is requested to input a filename for an interactive job. OnFileSaved is not triggered until the file has been completely written to disk. In either ca...
