If this is the case, it might be that dopdf didn't install correctly, so you'll have to check what size the resulting pdf has - if it's 0 then something went wrong and you'll need to reinstall dopdf. </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/problem-printing-multiple-excel-sheets#post-881 Mon, 13 Jul 2009 16:33:29 +0000 davefi12 881@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>Thanks for the tips, however, when I try to print to PDF only 10 of the 20 worksheets using your approach, I get a "file not recognized" error.

The only solution I see is to create it without embedded fonts and ensure that the recipient has those used fonts (or you could send the font separately). </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/dont-start-adobe-reader-after-pdf-created#post-577 Fri, 06 Feb 2009 07:20:50 +0000 Softland 577@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>This is on the wishlist, is not yet implemented. </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/create-pdf-without-dialog-box#post-576 Fri, 06 Feb 2009 07:19:39 +0000 Softland 576@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>No, that save as dialog cannot be avoided. </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/links#post-571 Thu, 05 Feb 2009 07:25:55 +0000 Softland 571@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>see this post - <a href="http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/links-and-images-in-dopdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/links-and-images-in-dopdf</a> </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/links#post-568 Wed, 04 Feb 2009 21:58:47 +0000 kmdhws 568@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>How do I get &lt;a href HTML Links to work in pdf?</p> <p>Thanks<br /> kmdhws </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/how-to-keep-background-colour-during-conversion-from-word#post-566 Mon, 02 Feb 2009 21:52:01 +0000 annay 566@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>Excellent, that works.

I need to keep my pdf documents under 2 MB. For instance, I created a word document that had pictures in it. When I was done, the document was .98 MB, I opened up the print option and chose doPDF v 6. It converted over to pdf, but shot the file size up to 2.15 MB. I compressed all of the pictures down before I even placed them in the document, so that isn't the problem.

For instance, if you're printing from notepad, if you change the setting properties for dopdf through the notepad interface to 17x22, then everytime you'll print from that instance of notepad it will remember this size; however, if you close and re-open notepad it will rever to the predefined. Same when printing from word, if you set it once and then (without restarting word) print to it, the custom size will be remembered, otherwise reverted to the default one.</p> <p>The best way to handle this is to set the page size directly in the application you print from, as dopdf will first use that page size and after that try to overwrite it (if you chose so). </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/accessing-the-dopdf-printing-preferences#post-440 Wed, 03 Dec 2008 07:34:52 +0000 ogdaypdf 440@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>I want to print 17"x 22" c size drawings from a file.

Clicking on the print icon in that tool brings up the printers window where I can select a printer to use. </p> <p>I have some screen shots of how the ebook page looks like vs how the dopdf output at 100% and 150% scaling look like. How do I add them to this post? </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/pdf-imagespages-created-with-smaller-size-than-original#post-399 Tue, 18 Nov 2008 07:19:05 +0000 Softland 399@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>Isn't the ebook in a pdf format? If it's in pdf you could open it with adobe reader. However if it's a proprietary format that's not possible. I didn't use the digital editions reader, so if it doesn't have a Print Setup option or something similar then it must not be configurable.<br /> In dopdf you can set the paper size when printing right from the page properties window:<br /> <img src="http://www.dopdf.com/screenshots/large/dopdf.jpg" alt="page properties" /> </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/pdf-imagespages-created-with-smaller-size-than-original#post-398 Tue, 18 Nov 2008 00:25:54 +0000 dopdfuser 398@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>Thanks for the suggestion. However, I am printing from an ebook reader app called Adobe Digital Editions. There are no setting there to select the output size. When I click on print from the app, it brings up a dialog box where I select the doPDF printer. The doPDF page properties also does not have anything to change the printed image size. </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/quiet-run#post-396 Mon, 17 Nov 2008 11:59:07 +0000 Softland 396@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>Hi David,<br /> No, doPDF does not have a silent mode. If you're interested, you can check out novapdf (http://www.novapdf.com) which offers a silent run option (this product is commercial though). </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/pdf-imagespages-created-with-smaller-size-than-original#post-393 Mon, 17 Nov 2008 07:53:40 +0000 Softland 393@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>Hi, I think adobe reader (if that's where you're printing from) resizes that, see this kb article <a href="http://www.novapdf.com/kb/when-printing-a-pdf-created-with-novapdf-from-adobe-reader-the-printed-information-is-shrinked-why-143.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.novapdf.com/kb/when-printing-a-pdf-created-with-novapdf-from-adobe-reader-the-printed-information-is-shrinked-why-143.html</a> as it applies to dopdf too. If not, see what's set in the Page properties of doPDF. </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/pdf-imagespages-created-with-smaller-size-than-original#post-389 Sat, 15 Nov 2008 00:55:27 +0000 dopdfuser 389@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>I see a problem when printing eBooks to a doPDF printer. The resulting pdf file has a lot of white space on all sides of the text ad hence it appears to be much smaller than the original size as seen in the eBook. Does doPDF do a size reduction of the incoming data? Is there an option to turn this off? Can doPDF by default 'fit the text' onto the Letter size page when creating a pdf file? </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/emailing#post-355 Tue, 28 Oct 2008 07:16:36 +0000 Softland 355@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p>do you want to have the pdfs automatically sent via email after they're created? or you are simply asking how to send an attachment via the email? If it's the first question, doPDF cannot send the PDF automatically after it's created. If it's the second question, once the PDF is created and saved (preferably on your desktop for easier handling) you can compose an email and either use the Insert-Attachment option in the email itself, or simply drag-and-drop the pdf from your desktop into the body of the email to have it attached. </p> http://www.dopdf.com/forum/topic/emailing#post-352 Mon, 27 Oct 2008 01:46:40 +0000 acani 352@http://www.dopdf.com/forum/ <p><em>how to send pdf's using email</em> </p>
