Today I upgraded from PDFCreator 2.1.2 to PDFCreator 3.3.0. Yes, that was quite a leap forward.
It seems that the "Select destination" dialog no longer appears after clicking "Save" in the PDFCreator dialog. Instead, the settings in the PDFCreator dialog are the only way to pick the filename.
Example of old workflow in PDFCreator 2.1.2:
- Print from any application to the PDFCreator printer.
- PDFCreator dialog is displayed. Click "Save".
- "Select destination" dialog is displayed.
I really liked this workflow worked because I don't use today's date for most of my filenames. I often print invoices from the past and I want the date of the invoice, not today's date. I use a counter in the filename, but it's a counter relative to the date I chose, not for today. The "Select destination" dialog allowed me to investigate what documents already exist in the folder. For example, I might type "*amazon*" in the "Select destination" dialog to see all of my Amazon invoices. I could pick an Amazon invoice on the appropriate date, then simply increment my counter.
Here are my PDFCreator 3.3.0 settings for "Default Profile":
Am I missing something? Is there a way to make PDFCreator 3.3.0 use a "Select destination" dialog the way it did in 2.1.2?
If not, would it be possible to add an Interactive Mode setting like "Use Select destination dialog"?
The only reason I upgraded from PDFCreator 2.1.2 in the first place is because I now get a PDFCreator Error Report every time I print to PDFCreator:
Error Report for PDFCreator v2.1.2.884 Exception: System.Threading.Tasks.TaskCanceledException: A task was canceled. at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.ThrowForNonSuccess(Task task) at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.HandleNonSuccessAndDebuggerNotification(Task task) at System.Windows.Threading.DispatcherOperation.Wait(TimeSpan timeout) at System.Windows.Threading.Dispatcher.InvokeImpl(DispatcherOperation operation, CancellationToken cancellationToken, TimeSpan timeout) at System.Windows.Threading.Dispatcher.Invoke(Action callback, DispatcherPriority priority, CancellationToken cancellationToken, TimeSpan timeout) at MS.Internal.WeakEventTable.OnShutDown() at MS.Internal.ShutDownListener.HandleShutDown(Object sender, EventArgs e) Environment: Microsoft Windows NT 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1
Despite this error, PDFCreator 2.1.2 creates the PDF.
For now, I've gone back to PDFCreator 2.1.2.

Hi All,
many years ago I think I used something like this to temporarily set PDFCreator as defaultPrinter and change it back aftewards:DefaultPrinter := PDFCreator.cDefaultPrinter; PDFCreator.cDefaultPrinter := 'PDFCreator'; PDFCreator.cPrinterStop := FALSE; // Dynamics Nav statement to run and print a report to the system default printer REPORT.RUNMODAL(reportNr, FALSE, TRUE); PDFCreator.cDefaultPrinter := DefaultPrinter; PDFCreator.cClose;
I cannot seem to find a way to set and restore the default printer with COM version > 2.0, however. Anyone has any tips?
Thanks in advance!

This does not pop up anymore when i print to PDF. it puts in a queue for normal paper printing. (see second image) I have unistalled and reinstalled, this all started happening as soon as i upgraded to v3.3.0. i can print test pages from the debug tab. the Print PDFCreator Test page pops up the first dialog box but if i do Print for WIndows or any other program on my computer it goes to the Queue as seen in the second image.

Hi,
I've downloaded and installed PDF Architect 6 FREE with create and edit modules. I also created an account.
When I'm signed out, I can use the free options of the edit module (move, delete, rotate) but not the merge option of the create module. When I'm signed in, it's the other way around: the edit module is completely deactivated, but I can use the merge option of the create module.
What's up with that?
Thanks

Hello, when printing through an redirected printer in a RDP session on a Windows RDS the printjob name is always "redirected printjob from remote desktop.pdf"
My question is: Is there anything I can do in PDFcreator or do I have to investigate further on the RDS itself?
Thanks in advance!

Dear Forum Users,
A customer of ours recently encountered a problem with PDF Creator where she couldn't print anymore. Manually opening it works. We deleted the pdf creator registry and registered the customer anew to no success.
We try to avoid reinstalling the program because we fear the error could then occur with other users. At the moment only 1 of them has this problem.
Any tips or information on the topic would be very helpful. Thaks in advance and have a nice day!I added the latest tracelog file below:

OS is Windows 10 Home.
I downloaded your new free version of PDF Creator 3.3.2 today (just 4 days after 3.3.0), and when I went to install it, Bit Defender had a fit. It said 74 files were malware. So I uninstalled it and went back to 3.3.0, which had installed without a problem. But now Bit Defender said IT was now full of malware, too!GRRR. Nevertheless, the program WAS installed, so I opened it. I don't know if the antivirus messed it up or what, but there is no way to CLOSE the program from the interface. I had to go to Task Manager to shut it down.
I can't print out all the files Bit Defender said were deleted or cleaned, its interface doesn't allow for that. I could copy down all the names in Notepad if needed.
About to try reinstalling 3.2.2.

I need to run Adobe Elements 11 after HotFolder has converted all the pdf files to a jpg file. The process is as follows and I would like understand what I can set in HotFolder to have it interface with Windows Task Scheduler to have this program start when HotFolder has moved all the files.
- I have a HotFolder and a MS Access 2016 will be creating and writing PDF files to this folder.
- Have HotFolder convert these files into a jpg image.
- When all files have been converted and the folder is empty,
I would like to be able to set an return code, some system code so that when this value is
is set the Windows Task Scheduler will start/run the this Adobe PhotoShop Elements batch
procedure to convert the jpg files into the correct format that we need the files in.- What can I do in HotFolder to be able to define & use some code for this batch interface?
Thanx in advance and I look forward to hearing back.

Good day,
I'm a new user of PDFCreator, primarily using it for its ability to export a PDF from Word and keeping image quality. The problem I have is that when I export, text in Arial is converted to Helvetica in the final PDF. This is significant because my styles are constrained by industry standards, and (for better or for worse), my end result must be in Arial. I have created sample files, but cannot link or attach them. I can email them upon request.
Thank you!
