Running Doc2Any as a scheduled task

2013/10/082013/10/08

This command fails when the scheduled task is set to "Run whether user is logged on or not"; I've spent hours trying to resolve it. I found your suggestion on using the CmdAsUser, but won't work as the password has a '%' sign and can't be changed right now (CmdAsUser can't seem to process the % in a batch file)

It's been a while since I installed this on my client's machine, the file date for doc2any.exe is 8/25/2011, file version is 2.3.0.1 - I was hoping there might be an update that helps work around this issue (running on Windows 2008 R2, Office 2010 is installed)

Test batch file, tried with useOffice 1 and 0

rem TEST
c:\ExtranetDocs\doc2any_cmd\doc2any.exe -log c:\ExtranetDocs\tempdocs\logs\4483003.DOCX.log -killoffice 1 -useoffice 1 c:\ExtranetDocs\tempdocs\4483003.DOCX c:\ExtranetDocs\tempdocs\4483003.PDF

>>CmdAsUser can't seem to process the % in a batch file

If you are using .bat file to do the batch conversion, you can use %% to instead of % in the .bat file.

If you just run CmdAsUser.exe from CMD window, you can use quotation marks to include the password, e.g.,

C:\doc2any\CmdAsUser.exe Administrator . /p "pass%word" C:\doc2any\doc2any.exe C:\test.doc C:\out.pdf

Another solution is set MS Word DCOM run inside Administrator user account to instead of default SYSTEM user account, please look at following web pages for more information,

Step 1. Free download Spool File Page Counter SDK v2.0

And now there is no single user version of this software. If you need to develop it under single computer, please choose the server version, it also can be used under single computer.

Step 2. Count color page number of PDF.

When you need to call this software from C# for counting color page number, please refer to the following code template:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

Dim colorPageCount As Integer
Dim copyCount As Integer
Dim nPageWidth As Double
Dim nPageHeight As Double
Dim strPaperSizeName As String
Dim nRet As Integer
Dim strMsg As String
Dim strFileName As String

bIsRenderToPDF = 0
bwPageCount = 0
colorPageCount = 0
copyCount = 0
nPageWidth = 0
nPageHeight = 0
strPaperSizeName = Space$(300)
strFileName = Application.StartupPath() & "\test_tiger.pdf"
nRet = ReadInfoFromPSFile(strFileName, bIsRenderToPDF, bwPageCount,
colorPageCount, copyCount, nPageWidth, nPageHeight, strPaperSizeName)

strMsg = strMsg + "FileName = " + strFileName + vbCrLf
strMsg = strMsg + "bIsRenderToPDF = " + CStr(bIsRenderToPDF) + vbCrLf
strMsg = strMsg + "bwPageCount = " + CStr(bwPageCount) + vbCrLf
strMsg = strMsg + "colorPageCount = " + CStr(colorPageCount) + vbCrLf
strMsg = strMsg + "copyCount = " + CStr(copyCount) + vbCrLf
strMsg = strMsg + "PaperSizeName = " + CStr(strPaperSizeName) + vbCrLf
MsgBox(strMsg)

strMsg = strMsg + "FileName = " + strFileName + vbCrLf
strMsg = strMsg + "bIsRenderToPDF = " + CStr(bIsRenderToPDF) + vbCrLf
strMsg = strMsg + "bwPageCount = " + CStr(bwPageCount) + vbCrLf

pdf to vector converter

PDF to Vector Converter Change Margin of the file, it is change the paper size from PDF to PCL Conversion

2013/09/28

I am now evaluating PDF to Vector Converter command line program. PDF file is converted into PCL and submitted to printer. I find that the margins of the PCL file are different from the original PDF file. The layout of the PCL file is scaled down. Everything is getting small. Is there any way to keep the original layout in the converted PCL file?

Customer
--------------------------
I do not have order ID as I am still in the stage of evaluation. Please find the original PDF file and the converted PCL file from the attachment.

It is quite obvious that the left margin of the converted PCL file is narrower than that of the PDF file. And also the fonts in the PCL file are smaller.

Thanks for your help.

Customer
--------------------------
Please look at a new converted PCL file from following URL,

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

This PCL file was converted by latest version of pdf2vec.exe application, will this PCL file okay to you?

VeryDOC
--------------------------
The result is far better than before. Is it possible to pass the latest version of pdf2vec.exe for my evaluation?

Customer
--------------------------
Thanks for your message, I have ask our engineer to prepared a new version to you, you may download it from following URL to try,

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

you can run following command line to convert your PDF file to PCL file properly,

pdf2vec.exe -paper pdf pagetest.pdf pagetest.pcl

"-paper pdf" parameter will read paper size from input PDF file and set it to target PCL file, this will make sure input and output documents have same paper size, we hoping this option will work fine to you.

Tips for generating PDF from HTML and making PDF smaller

2013/09/282013/09/28

Question:I'm generating PDF from HTML from C# and the files are coming out a reasonable size. However, I'm interested in any tips anyone has for making the PDF as small as possible.The HTML being rendered is really basic, just a table of names and dates etc - doesn't have to be too pretty. Is there any solution on VeryDOC?

Answer: If you need to generate PDF from C#, software VeryDOC Doc Converter COM can help you do that. But this software can not help you compress output PDF to a reasonable size. It will output PDF from HTML with high quality to make the output PDF keeping all the original elements of HTML file. If you need to compress PDF to a reasonable size, you’d better compress it with some professional tool like VeryDOC PDF Compressor, by it you can compress PDF according to its size. Say the PDF is text based, you can compress PDF by compressing fonts. In the following part, I will show you how to generate PDF and make it smaller by those two software.

Step 1. Generate PDF from C#.

When generating PDF from C#, please download software VeryDOC Doc Converter COM. When downloading finishes, please unzip it and then use it like other COM version software.
When generating PDF from C#, please refer to the following code template:

Set PdfCreator = New PDFOUTLib.PdfCreator
        PdfCreator.HTML2PDF = "C:\sample.html"
        PdfCreator.FileName = "C:\sample.pdf"
        PdfCreator.HeadersFooters = "off"
        PdfCreator.paperType = 6 '//7 is A4 paper, 6 is A3 paper
        PdfCreator.CreatePDF
        While PdfCreator.StillRunning = 1
            DoEvents
            Call WaitMessage
        Wend
        Set PdfCreator = Nothing
        Debug.Print "C:\sample.html -->C:\sample.pdf"

Step 2. Compress PDF

When compressing PDF, please download PDF Compressor Command Line. When downloading finishes, please extract it to some folder then you can use it like other command line version software.
When compressing text based PDF, please refer to the following command line templates:

pdfcompressor.exe -winfont -embedallfonts -subsetfonts -compressfonts C:\in.pdf C:\out.pdf
pdfcompressor.exe -subsetfonts C:\in.pdf C:\out.pdf
Here are some parameters:
-winfont : Use Windows fonts to replace Base14 fonts
-embedallfonts : Embed all fonts
-subsetfonts : Subset fonts
-compressfonts : Compress fonts

By those two software, I guess we can generate PDF and compress PDF to a reasonable size. Now we have not one software which can process those two functions perfectly. But we will make one in the future. During the using, if you have any question, please contact us as soon as possible.
