PDF-XChange Printer Lite 2012 Document Info and macros

Post by _me_myself_and_I_ »

Is ist possible to use macros or maybe environmental variables in the document information settings, to set the logged on user as PDF author?
We use PDF-XChange Printer Lite to save PDFs from AutoCAD and configured an AutoCAD printer template for this purpose. This template
is included from different workstations so I need to use a variable or macro that return the username.

here is a screenshot from the document information settings dialog:

thx in advance

Hi _me_myself_and_I_,

thanks for the post and question. I'm afraid there is no way to access the user system varialble this way. It is a good suggestion however so I have created a formal feature request around this. The ticket is internal only but for reference it is RT#2678: Feature Request : PDF-XChange Printer Lite 2012 Document Info and macros

hth
Best regards
