Total PDFConvertorX ignoring params
November 11, 2010 05:56AM
Hi there

I need to split the PDF then combine the files into one file
So i used -Ctif -SI

Dim sDestinationPath As String = "C:\GVDocuments\ImageCache\"
Dim sDestinationFileName As String = String.Format("img{0}", Now.ToString)
sDestinationFileName = sDestinationFileName.Replace("/", ""winking smiley.Replace(":", ""winking smiley.Replace(" ", ""winking smiley
Dim DestinationName As String = sDestinationPath + sDestinationFileName

Dim Parms As String = "-CTIF -DPI300 -S -log C:\GVDocuments\ImageCache\PDF.log"
Dim appPDf As New PDFConverter.PDFConverterX
appPDf.Convert(SourceName, DestinationName, Parms)
appPDf = Nothing

Very straight forward code
The Tiff files are created in the destination folder. So great!
The DPI swicth is ignored. Not good!
The -S switch is ignored. Not good!
The -Log is ignored. Not good!
If I change the to

Dim Parms As String = "-S -CTIF -DPI300 -log C:\GVDocuments\ImageCache\PDF.log"

Only a .TXT file is created because the second param is being ignored.
Also because the -DPI switch is being ignored the document is now the wrong size.

The ActiveX program supplied does work fine but as this cannot be included in a program to work autoimatically it's no good to me.

I am using VS2010, on 64bit windows7
Surely if the OS was the problem the activeX would experience the same problem.

If this can't be done quickly is it possible to get the ActiveX uncompiled files so it could incorporated into our program.

Please reply soon this is my company needs to go live next week with our document management system.

Hi there
You did answer me by email but with no soloution.
You informed me that i should have spaces between the switches, but if you had looked at my code above you would have seen that there is spaces between the switches. And it still does not work, I have tried spavces, no spaces, uppercase, lowercase, different positions, directly on the command prompt, and nothing works.

Please help.

Dear Geoff,

In e-mail I wrote that If everything does not work even with axPDFDev, please, send us your file and parameters.
