Thanks Kurt. I will test and let you know if I have any questions. Do you have a
simple c++ sample which prints any of these chinese string to pdf. Thant will
help a lot.

Thanks,

Dev

Hello,

I am using the public PDFLib 8 beta for .NET and Visual Studio 2008 on Windows 7
x64.

If I compile against "AnyCPU" or "x64", I get an image loading error at runtime:

Unhandled Exception: System.BadImageFormatException: Could not load file or
assembly 'PDFlib_dotnet, Version=8.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=af0805f2b25bb299' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made
to load a program with an incorrect format.
File name: 'PDFlib_dotnet, Version=8.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=af0805f2b25bb299'

If I compile against "x86", it works. So my questions now are;

1. Is this because the .NET DLL is compiled specifically against x86?

2. Does this mean IIS on Windows x64 will need to run in explicit x86 mode
(which has a performance hit) for PDFLib to work?

(Please note that the Windows Server operating system series is *discontinued*
for x86, so PDFLib should seriously consider upgrading itself to either AnyCPU
or x64.)

Best regards from Sweden,

We support our products on Windows x64 platforms since a long
time. The fact is simply that a Windows x64 version of Beta 1
has not been produced. We will release PDFlib 8 Beta 2 in a
few days, and will add x64 binaries for your testing.

That's good news. Since the download page for beta 8 didn't mention anything
about x86/x64/AnyCPU for .NET I misunderstood.

Thanks, looking forward to the new beta!

Hi,

I'm creating a transparent rectangle in my code but some printers messes up this
page with transparency. The page with transparency is darker then the page
without transparency.

On our screens the colors are perfect and when I meassure these colors they all
are the same (cmyk 0, 75, 0, 100).

Is there a way the prevent the colors from changing while printing?

Thanks

Not sure if it's needed but here is my code for generating the transparency:
if($p->pcos_get_string($indoc, "type:pages[".($pageNumber -
1)."]/blocks/pagina1NaamLijsttrekkerBlock") != "null")
{
	 $llx = $p->pcos_get_number($indoc, "pages[".($pageNumber -
1)."]/blocks/pagina1NaamLijsttrekkerBlock/Rect[0]");
	 $lly = $p->pcos_get_number($indoc, "pages[".($pageNumber -
1)."]/blocks/pagina1NaamLijsttrekkerBlock/Rect[1]");
	 $urx = $p->pcos_get_number($indoc, "pages[".($pageNumber -
1)."]/blocks/pagina1NaamLijsttrekkerBlock/Rect[2]");
	 $ury = $p->pcos_get_number($indoc, "pages[".($pageNumber -
1)."]/blocks/pagina1NaamLijsttrekkerBlock/Rect[3]");

	 $p->save();
	 $gstate = $p->create_gstate("opacityfill=.8");
	 $p->set_gstate($gstate);
	 $p->setcolor("fill", "cmyk", 0, 0, 0, 0);
	 $p->rect($llx, $lly, $urx-$llx, $ury-$lly);
	 $p->fill();
	 $p->restore();
}

I believe the "transparencygroup" option in PDF_begin/end_page()
is your friend. From its description:

Default: if a page contains image masks with more than 1 bit
or the opacityfill/opacitystroke options of PDF_create_gstate( )
the following option list will automatically be created to
improve output quality:
"transparencygroup={CS=DeviceRGB}"

You can try this option explicitly in your code. If it solves
the problem, you are either using an older version of PDFlib
(the automatic has been introduced in 7.0.3), or you ran into
a bug.

Please let us know whether the option list above solves your
problem.

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

Does transparencygroup={CS=DeviceRGB} add RGB colors to the file? And if so, is
transparencygroup={CS=DeviceCMYK} a good replacement?

No, it doesn't.

  > And if so, is transparencygroup={CS=DeviceCMYK} a good replacement?

DeviceCMYK is Acrobat's default color space for the transparency
calculations, which causes the color shifts in the first place.
This option doesn't add any colors to the file, but instructs
Acrobat _not_ to switch to an unwanted (different) color space
when rendering the colors.

I expect that transparencygroup={CS=DeviceCMYK} would not
solve your problem.

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

Both the "transparencygroup={CS=DeviceCMYK}" and the
"transparencygroup={CS=DeviceRGB}" doesn't help. The colors still changes on the
page with the transparency.

Maybe its something in my code:
	 public function createPdf($preview = false)

Hi all,

    I am quite new to pdflib and wondering if it is possible to combine more than
1 pdfs into 1 pdf using vbscript and pdflib?

   If so could someone please share the sample code with me?

Thanks
Sai

you can do this with PDFlib+PDI. We provide an example in our
download packages which demonstrate this task: starter_pdfmerge.
Please check the provided examples for this task.

best regards
Rainer

PDFlib 7:  Create PDF/A for archiving, format tables, and more!
_______PDFlib - a library for generating PDF on the fly________

Hi Rainer,

    Thank you for responding to my question.

    I looked for starter_pdfmerge examples however I couldn't find any examples
in vbscript.

    Do you know if this can be done in vbscript or not?

Thanks
Sai

Was this issue resolved?  I am having a similar problem.

I have a DLL that references PDFLib, and all set font and text calls are using
the "embedded" value.

If I run the code to create the PDF with the fonts installed on the host running
the dll, they all embed correctly.  If I run the same code with the fonts not
installed, but specified through the upr file it embeds some of the fonts.  Out
of the 8 non-standard fonts in the UPR file some embed fully, some don't embed
at all, and some have 2 entries, one embedded and one not embedded.

Could someone shed some light on this issue?

Thanks,

Mike

PDFlib 8 Beta 2 is now available for download at
http://www.pdflib.com/en/download/pdflib-family/pdflib-8-beta/

A summary of new features is available at
http://www.pdflib.com/products/pdflib-8-preview/
Licensing details are also available on our Web site.

Compared to PDFlib 8 Beta 1 several features have been
improved, bugs fixed, and the documentation enhanced.
Some noteworthy items for Beta 2:

- PDFlib 8 Beta 2 generates compressed object streams by
    default. This significantly reduces PDF output file size,
    in some cases even dramatically. This feature also allows
    us to create PDF documents > 10 GB.

- As requested on this list, binaries for Windows 64-bit
    systems are now also available for beta testing.

- PDFlib Block Plugin for Windows now includes a Japanese
    user interface version.

- The PDFlib Block Plugin is now also available for Mac OS X.

The final release of PDFlib 8 is expected for early December.

Thomas

PDFlib 7:  Create PDF/A for archiving, format tables, and more!
_______PDFlib - a library for generating PDF on the fly________

Hi,

I'm currently trying to change the behavior of PDFLib linebreaking algorithm by
providing the following list of character to the charclass parameter:

" charclass {letter {! # $ % & ' ( ) * + , - . / : ; < = > ? @ [ \ ] _ ~ « » ±
÷}}"

The problem is that when I do that, I get a message telling me that "String
value (...) for option 'charclass' is too long (maximum 32).

I understand this error pretty well, what I don't get is why exactly there is
this limit of 32 characters and, most obviously, how am I supposed to have all
my special characters behave like letters if I can't list them all. Is there a
way I'm not aware of to specify a "range" of characters? I looked throughout the
reference and didn't find anyting specific regarding that matter.

Many thanks!
Maxim F.Giguere

Okay, forget my first question, I found out that I could split the string
parameter that way in order to specify many character that have to be treated
like letters:

" charclass {letter {! # $ % & ' ( )} letter {* + , - . / : ;} letter {< = > ? @
[ \ ] _} letter {~}}"

I still have a problem tho. How can I pass the following character to charclass
to be treated as letters


        Décimal   Octal   Hex  Binaire   Caractère
        -------   -----   ---  --------    ------
          034      042    22   00100010        "    (double quote)
          123      173    7B   01111011        {    (left opening brace)
          125      175    7D   01111101        }    (right closing brace)
          174             AE                   «
          175             AF                   »
          246             F6                   ÷

Thank you!

Hi!

I'm new to PDFLib and attempting to use PDFLib COM version with Visual Basic 6.0
programming language. I attempted to learn different things using API Reference
and Cook-Book but couldn't gather the information that I'm looking for.

Firstly, almost all the examples included in the Installer package "Create New
PDF" and then demonstrate the features. I'm looking for the means to process
existing PDF Files. So, I want to learn how to Open Existing PDF File and then
...

1. Digitally Sign it
2. Get the Author, Description, Keywords, Created by, Produced by etc.
Information.
3. Change the information for the parameters mentioned in the point-2 above.
4. Embed JavaScript for different Document Action levels (such as Open, Close
etc.)
5. Encrypt the PDF file by disabling certain features (such Copy, Print etc) and
set Password (owner and/or user)

I've found an example that demonstrates how to embed Javascript but again, it
creates a new PDF file and then embeds the Javascript and saves it. I want
PDFLib to do the same with existing PDF File.

I tried open_file but for some reason, it simply erases all the data in my PDF
file and nothing is returned back to the calling application.

Please help me to learn PDFLib for using it with Existing PDF Files and process
it in different ways, later save it with the changes done.

Eagerly waiting for your valuable reply...

Best Regards,

Ruturaaj.

Hi,

you must separate the charcters by a space (list of unichar).
You can specify Unicode characters in different ways
(see section 1.2, Simple Values in the Reference Manual).

PDFlib cannot edit existing files. It can only create new PDFs. You can
create a new PDF, import an existing PDF into it, and then save the
resulting new PDF with a different filename.

hi
question about the license
is it possible to get the expiration date from the license ?!

Commercial PDFlib licenses don't expire. If you got a temporary
evaluation license key from our sales team the corresponding
license does expire; the expiration date has been sent to you
along with the evaluation license key.

Hi!

Thanks so much for your reply ... I was unaware that PDFLib cannot
edit  or change existing PDF files. can you please tell me how to
import an existing PDF file with all of its aspects into new PDF? is
there any function that can import Everything ( which includes comments
attachments annotations etc) in one go?

Eagerly waiting for your valuable reply...

I do not believe that there is a single function that can import
everything. Once you import the page contents with the PDI functions,
you can extract pretty  much all of the remaining meta-data with the
pCOS functions built into PDFlib 7.

Hello everyone,
I'm stuck in a little issue while using the pCOS.
I'm trying to extract the form-data of a pdf-file which works fine aside from
one exception.
Theres no usefull response on reading-out multiple selection boxes of the
pdf-file. The value you get with "p.get_string(doc, "fields["+ i +"]/V")" (using
Java) is allways "0".

Theres another question in my mind is there an opportunity to read-out
field properties like it's a "date-field" or "numberfield"?


It would be fine if you help me with an idea to solve these problems.
Thank you and greetings Hans.

This is a bit tricky since Radio buttons in PDF are arranged
in a hierarchy. While individual buttons store only their
appearance (what does this button look like?), the value is
stored for the whole group, not in individual buttons. You
must check the parent entry of the button to determine the
/V value, e.g.

fields[5]/Parent/V

assuming that fields[5] is a button field.

Alternatively could query the "appearance state" AS from the button
field itself since it usually reflects the displayed value.
However, this is not guaranteed to be present and therefore not
recommended.

It depends on your definition of these types since these are
not predefined PDF data types. If the fields use a naming
convention you could check the field title in the /T entry.
