In trying to print several copies of a PDF document in a VB6 ActiveX using the version 7.15 of the library with the following code:

newPrinter = QP.NewCustomPrinter(QP.GetDefaultPrinterName)

QP.SetupCustomPrinter(newPrinter, 4, nCopias)

QP.PrintDocument(newPrinter, 1, 4, 0)

and I always get and empty string in the call to NewCustomPrinter.

Any ideas ?

Yes, there is a bug in the SetupCustomPrinter method -- this is currently being rectified and will be included with version 7.16.

7.16 Beta 3 will be available early next week.

Cheers, Karl

I've put version 7.14, which did not contain this bug, on the website for you to download if you would like to use this function immediately.
