Custom printing options

Hi,

I'm currently evaluating Dynamic Pdf Viewer and one of the requirements I need to meet is to have my own print dialog. I can't use the one shown when clicking on the print button of the viewer, for many reasons.

So far, I've managed to set most of the properties I need to control by myself before calling PrintQuiet (rangeFrom, rangeTo, printerName, autoRotate, autoCenter, scaling).

What I need to do now is find a way to control the Duplex mode, so I can tell the printer to print either in Simplex or Duplex, without allowing the user to choose.

Is there also a way to print the PDF files as Bitmaps, for old printers that don't handle some pdf files well?

Thank you!

A few more questions:

Is there a way to hide the "DynamicPDF Viewer" caption at the top of the control?

How can I evaluate the enterprise edition of the product? I can't recommend the purchase of the product unless I have a good proof of concept with everything I need to implement in it, and that includes a few features that are only available in the enterprise edition.


Thanks again!

And a few others questions finally:

1- Does the method

MyViewer.SetCurrentLanguage(Short)

really does anything? I would like to change the language to french, but nothing seems to happen whatever the value I pass to this function. This would be usefull for us to have your printing dialog in french.




2- Is there a way to stop the printing once PrintWithDialog have been called? Is there some kind of BeforePrint() event?

Hello,

It is not possible to set the Duplex or Simplex mode for printing when using the Viewer product.

It is not possible to print the PDFs to bitmaps using the Viewer product. You can create images from PDF files using the Rasterizer product.

It is not possible to hide the "DynamicPDF Viewer" caption from the viewer control.

Can you please send over a mail to our Support Team so that they can give you a link to download the evaluation version of Enterprise edition product?

Yes, you can display the text from the control in the French language without any problem. You will have to use a language file along with the OCX file. Plesae send a mail to our Support Team so that they can give you the language file.

PrintWithDialog method will open a printer dialog to print the document. If you close/cancel the dialog instead of printing, it will not print the document. There is no Beforeprint event which can be fired before printing.

Would it be possible to do those things in the Enterprise edition?

Hello,

You can hide the "DynamicPDF Viewer" caption using the below sample code:

DynamicPDFViewer1.ShowTitleBar False

You cannot convert the PDF to bitmaps or do Simplex or Duplex printing using the Enterprise edition of DynamicPDF Viewer as well.
