But you can create jpegs (somehow manually) from Adobe Reader directly. </p> <p>Simply open the pdf and then there's the Snapshot Tool (go to Tools-&gt;Select &#38; Zoom-&gt;Snapshot Tool) you can use to select the entire page and a screenshot of it will be saved into the clipboard - then you can paste that into Microsoft Paint.</p> <p>Hope that helps. </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/major-update-dopdf-63307-released#post-1074 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 07:57:17 +0000 Softland 1074@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>doPDF 6.3.311 includes only some small fixes related to the log it creates when being installed (in some situations using the install log option enabled would crash the installation), as well as new information for recognizing installations on Windows 7. </p> <p>Code behind it modified a bit though, in preparement for version 7 that will be released later this month or early December. </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/changelog-for-version-63311#post-1073 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 07:55:08 +0000 Softland 1073@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>Well nothing major changed in this build, except some minor fixes regarding the crash, i'll post about it in the news area. </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/convert-pdf-to-jpeg-or-gif#post-1072 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 16:56:26 +0000 Office Manager 1072@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>I want to convert a PDF document (a 2 pg. sales flyer)to a JPEG file type.

The created pdf file has always all pages in portrait format, by distorting and sqeezing the landscape pages into portrait format.</p> <p>I verified the printing with CutePDF (which i don't like becaus of reqiring Ghostscript) and NitroPDF (which is not free, so no option for poor student), and both are producing outputs with the correct page orientation changes (using the same document, on the same computer). </p> <p>This happens with version 6.30 build 310 and build 311 (for older versions i don't know, won't go back)</p> <p>Other then that i really like DoPDF, is is my prefered PDF writer. I honestly appreciate your efforts with this product.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Albert </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/pictures-have-been-cut#post-1068 Mon, 16 Nov 2009 17:28:06 +0000 Laber 1068@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>I made a booklet of 12 pages with OpenOffice and dopdf. For printig preperation I made a pdf with dopdf build 308 and printed it in "Broschuere" mode, which means that two pages which are printed together are mounted at the same print page. For example page 1 and the last page or page 2 and the page before the last and so on.<br /> I had a lot of pictures in the text document. One of them I cutted in the text editor of OpenOffice because it was too large. Dopdf made a pdf-File where the picture have been cutted much more than I did it in OpenOffice. The size is as I want. The picture is zoomed. This effect does only occur in the "Broschuere" mode. In the normal mode (pages in "normal" order) the pdf is correct. An other pdf creator (PDFCreator) is doing this job correct. (It makes other trouble.)<br /> As a work around I cutted the picture with an external program before I mounted it into the text document and all is working well.<br /> I think there might be a bug between OpenOffice and dopdf. On all other aspects dopdf is a fine program and working very well. With the new build 311 the result is the same. </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/translation-dopdfcom-available-in-vietnamese#post-1067 Mon, 16 Nov 2009 13:48:05 +0000 Softland 1067@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>Thanks to <strong>Mr. Nguyen VinhDung</strong> we now have the dopdf.com website available in Vietnamese too: <a href="http://www.dopdf.com/vn/">dopdf.com/vn/</a>.

Cool. Fast, and converts what Adobe can't do (like a 100MB Word)</p> <p>The things I would like to point out is that the PDF from Adobe (after splitting the DOC and creating split PDFs and joining) is 4MB in size. doPDF does a &gt;30MB file with 300 DPI and 14MB with 72 DPI. Both files have really hard JPEG compression.</p> <p>It would be cool if the images can be compressed in PNG (or if PDF doesn't allow that) in some other format (GIFlike?) or JPEG whatever is smaller or preserves the quality better.</p> <p>Compressing a "screenshot" for example is lossless with PNG and smaller than with JPEG but an outdoor picture is smaller with JPEG and maybe has non-perceptible loss.</p> <p>The other awful thing is that the watermark ("Draft" 60 degrees angle) on the document I've compressed seems to be saved as a picture, and might take some space. </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/no-fonts-on-pc-display-device-but-a-block-with-a-cross-in-it#post-1054 Fri, 30 Oct 2009 15:47:40 +0000 Babs 1054@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>Hi there,</p> <p>When my the customer opens the pdf on her pc.
