Again, I can't switch to C# but was just hoping you may have found some places where you can manage/free memory better internal to the SDK.

Here's the test file I'm working with.

Tell me when you have it and I'll pull it down.

It's obviously not feasible to switch programming languages for a product that is over 10 years old. So I'm trying to deal with it the best I can in Delphi. Again, the interesting thing here is that this wasn't happening several builds ago. I feel I'm doing all I can to free the objects and interfac...

Any chance multiple instances of TPXV_Control will be in v9 upcoming?

--Jeff

jeffp

Has there been any similar issues like this reported? Has any of fixes for V9 addressed this specifically?

There seems to be some large memory bloats now when doing certain pdf actions with the SDK. Again, you have to save, close, and re-open to knock out the memory.

--Jeff

jeffp

When do you expect V9 and what are the major changes going to be?

jeffp

Again, as a workaround, I can save out to temp after combining so many files, but when combining one file with say 2000 pages, we often get the memory crash as well. The funny thing about this is it wasn't happening just a few builds ago. Seems to be something that has crept in just recently. We'll ...

I'm having an issue with inserting lots of files/pages into a document. I have one example where I'm inserting over 1,500 one page PDF files into a new PDF using InsertPagesFromDoc. It seems the inserting so many pages is causing the memory to climb so high that it crashes my program. Is there a cal...

Where can I always get the most recent Plugin files (.pvp) that go with the latest dev build of the Editor SDK?

--Jeff

jeffp

Is FMT_JBIG2_ID losselss or lossy mode?

--Jeff

jeffp

SetModified helps in case a user tries to close the file because if prompts to save first. However, if the user clicks the Save button it will just save it back out to file. Is there another property that can be used to treat the file as if it hasn't been saved before. I need even a Save command by ...

jeffp

How can I mark a document as "Temp" so that your control will throw up the SaveAs dialog if I try to close it. I have a situation where I create and insert pages into your control from a scan. I then save the document to a temp location. But after saving I need you set a flag to tell your ...

jeffp

That's fine. I have the Editor SDK too. Just need some guidance on how to start a scan directly from code and not the Editor UI.

--Jeff

jeffp

In the old Viewer SDK I was able to access your scanner calls and produce a scanned image from a TWAIN driver. Can you point me in the right direction for being able to scan from your new CORE API. If you have any example code, that would be very helpful (and if any Delphi sample code even better) T...

jeffp

Will look into that. Thanks.

jeffp

I'm using your ActiveX control in PDFXEditCore.x86.dll inside a Delphi desktop application. Running mostly on Windows 10.

--Jeff

jeffp

I'm seeing that in your embedded PDF Editor I have inside my app, the mouse cursor changes from the hand to a spinning circle if you just let is sit for a few seconds. If I move the mouse slightly it goes back to a hand, but then back to the spinning circle after a few more seconds. Any idea what th...

jeffp

Also what's the uninstall command line switch for the PDFX5SA_sm.exe?

/UNINSTALL

doesn't see to work.

--Jeff

jeffp

I have a license to distribute Lite Driver.

Where are the docs that list all the command line switch for both the Lite driver and the API driver?

---Jeff

jeffp

What is the command line switch to uninstall the PDF Lite driver silently?

..\PDFXLite7.exe /quiet /uninstall

It the above correct?

--Jeff

jeffp

I see the calls but I was looking for a simple example. Would that be possible?

I have a cases where I want to add a few receipt items to the XMP like

SubTotal
Tax
Total

Thanks.

--Jeff

jeffp

Can you point me to where I can learn how to add custom meta data in the latest PDF Editor SDK.

--Jeff

jeffp

Yes. A Delphi Code sample would be great. Again, lookiing for the optimal way to convert an image to black and white.

You have a APage.ToGrayscale procedure currently. Maybe you should add APage.ToBW

Thanks again.

--Jeff

jeffp

Ok The call is defined as function ReduceColorsFixedPalette(pFixedPalette: PSafeArray; nDitherMethod: IXC_DitherMethod): HResult; stdcall; Can you help me with what to set for pFixedPallette to turn the page into a BW image APage.ReduceColorsFixedPalette(???, Dither_none); Also, how does ReduceColor...

jeffp

Any more thought on this one? Is it something you plan on doing in an upcoming build?

--Jeff

jeffp

In your notes on 7.0.323.0, you mention that when upgrading from v6 to v7 you lose toolbar customizations, but that you were working on a feature that will import V6 customization to V7.

Is that feature in the latest build?

And when is the next build scheduled to be released?

Thanks.

jeffp

That's fine if it's not worth your effort. I just need to know so I can deal with it on my end.

--Jeff

jeffp

It is the toolbar customization settings that I was needing a translation for.

Is this not going to happen?

--Jeff

jeffp

Any word back on this issue yet?

--Jeff

jeffp

Will it be possible? and if so, when?

jeffp

Sorry, I meant version 6 to version 7.

I'm still on 6.0.322.7

jeffp

Did build .326 fix the issue with converting older settings to the new settings format. I have a lot of users on prior builds of .324 and .325 and I need to preserve their custom settings when I upgrade them to build .326

--Jeff

jeffp

Ok. This looks good, but how do I get a list of Scanners in order to set ScannerID or ScannerName?

--Jeff

jeffp

Do you have plans to expose your scanning objects in the Editor API? I'd like to be able to initiate a scan outside of the Editor UI by calling into your scanning code.

--Jeff

jeffp

Thanks.

jeffp

I'm having a hard time finding the sample file that wasn't working.

Can I just ask what calls you would make to turn a GrayScale or Color image into a BW image?

--Jeff

jeffp

With the old ViewerAX I could do this: FControl.SetDocumentProperty(ADocID, 'SilentSaveTmpToDispFile', ADataIn, 0); and FControl.SetDocumentProperty(ADocID, 'Temp', ADataIn, 0); Can you tell me how to set the "Templ and "SiletnSaveTempDoDispFile" document properties in the new Editor....

jeffp

This is a big document so when I call pOp.Do_(0); it takes a long time. As such, is there a way to add a progress event so I can display what's going on.

--Jeff

jeffp

I have a customer who receives PDFs from a third party. These PDFs are essentially scanned images. The PDF file sizes are quite large. Is there a way to open one of these PDFs and make some setting changes (like with compression, etc), and then save it out again with a smaller size? Printing the PDF...

jeffp

I need to be able to make this conversion via the API in code. Again using the IIXC_Page object.

jeffp

I have an IIXC_Page object that is a gray scale image. I need to convert it into a black and white image. Here is what I'm using currently var APage: IIXC_Page; begin APage.ConvertToFormat(PageFormat_1Indexed); APage.Set_FmtInt(FP_ID_ITYPE, 1); APage.Set_FmtInt(FP_ID_BPP, 1); However, the last line ...

jeffp

That's fine. I can wait. I just need to know it's going to be in the next build.

jeffp

Were you able to look into this again. I still can't get it to work with the Lite build 324.3.

--Jeff

jeffp

Ok. I installed build 324.3 of the Lite driver. I then ran both of the following, but the RunApp option was still checked. "C:\Program Files\Tracker Software\PDF-XChange Lite\pdfSaverL.exe" /SetOptions "Save.RunApp=false" /Printer "FileCenter PDF Printer 7" and "C:...

jeffp

Thanks. Will test again with new build.

jeffp

I need to be able to get and set the thumbnail page number label that appears just below the thumb image of a page. I need to do this in code. A customer wants the pages to be 1A, 1B, 1C, ... instead of 1, 2, 3 Also, can this be done with the IPXC_Document core object without have to use IPXV_Docume...

jeffp

Do you have an estimated release date for #1

jeffp

Tried this: "C:\Program Files\Tracker Software\PDF-XChange Lite\pdfSaverL.exe" /SetOptions "Save.RunApp=false" /Printer "FileCenter PDF Printer 7" and this "C:\Program Files\Tracker Software\PDF-XChange Lite\pdfSaverL.exe" /SetOptions "Save.RunApp=false&q...

jeffp

Never mind. I see it.

jeffp

Ok. So how do I know the file path of pdfSaverL.exe once I run the installer.

So what you are saying is run the installer, and then run pdfSaveL.exe
