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/pages-printed-in-reverse-order#post-1059 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 12:11:42 +0000 Softland 1059@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>hi, it's a setting in word you have to uncheck. see this <a href="http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/pages-in-backward-order" rel="nofollow">http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/pages-in-backward-order</a> </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/pages-printed-in-reverse-order#post-1058 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 11:19:40 +0000 MARIE2009 1058@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>When printing word document pages into pdf format I get a document with pages in reverse order. </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/no-fonts-on-pc-display-device-but-a-block-with-a-cross-in-it#post-1057 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 08:34:17 +0000 Softland 1057@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>Hi, did you have the option to "Embed fonts" checked when creating the pdf in the save dialog? </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.

We'll look into that, but you can use the Always use this folder option to force printing to a specific folder. </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/suggested-output-folder-different-in-vista#post-1024 Wed, 07 Oct 2009 20:07:48 +0000 Honaudio 1024@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>In XP, the first suggested folder to write the PDF through Dopdf is the same folder that the original document came from. This is as advertised and works well for my application. I recently converted to Vista x64 and the behavior is different: The first suggested folder is c:\users\(user name)... I do NOT have the "always use this folder" box checked. If I select a folder and write the pdf, any subsequent PDF writes for the current session goes to the folder I selected. However, If I close the document then reopen it and write a PDF, the suggested folder returns to c:\users\(user name).</p> <p>Did I miss a setup issue or does Vista x64 behave differently than XP.<br /> I personally really appreciated the suggested folder being the one the document came from.</p> <p>My Dopdf version is 6.3 build 308 </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/stuck-with-a4-format-instead-of-letter#post-1022 Tue, 06 Oct 2009 16:58:23 +0000 Midseven 1022@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>Yeah, the width is always resized to 8" due to the paper available (stuck with A4).</p> <p>As I already said, I managed to reproduce it on 2 computers with XP SP3 up-to-date.
