Can't Open PDF FIle

Post by jeffp »

Is there anyway you can allow the DLL call to open PDFs a bit more forgiving.

I've got a client that is creating PDF via an HP Photosmart and this is how they come up. I know it is a poorly formatted PDF, but it would be nice if it would still open.

It opens fine in your ViewerAX, which seems to be more forgiving.

See attached.

Unfortunately xcpro40.dll has no mechanisms to recover corrupted PDF files.
However - this is available in our Viewer SDK (ActiveX and Simple Viewer SDK), and end-user version of the Viewer/Editor.
