Can I print documents with PDF Lite? My trial ran out on the full version and I need to demo my app to management today. I'm getting error messages with VB.net 3.5 code using GetDefaultPrinterName and PrintDocument members? They are in the 7.19 user guide as available functions, but maybe I'm using the wrong syntax? The PDFLibrary.LoadFromFile() function works OK so it looks like the ActiveX component is installed and registered properly.

The error message I get is:

Public member 'GetDefaultPrinterName' on type 'PDFLibrary' not found.

If I hard code the printer name as a string then the error message goes to:

Public member 'PrintOptions' on type 'PDFLibrary' not found.

If I hard code the printer options as an integer then the error message goes to:

Public member 'PrintDocument' on type 'PDFLibrary' not found.

CODE Example:

Dim PDFLibrary As QuickPDFLite0719.PDFLibrary

PDFLibrary = CreateObject("QuickPDFLite0719.PDFLibrary")

PDFLibrary.LoadFromFile(print_document)

PDFLibrary.PrintDocument(PDFLibrary.GetDefaultPrinterName, start_page, PDFLibrary.PageCount, PDFLibrary.PrintOptions(1, 0, "Document"))

PDFLibrary = Nothing

Hi!

Try "GetDefaultPrinterName" before and use only the result

with PrintDocument. Perhaps it helps?

I'm doing it this way with success:
// . . .
QP.LoadFromFile(Edit1.text);
prName := QP.GetDefaultPrinterName();
prOptions := QP.PrintOptions(2, 0, Edit1.Text);
QP.PrintDocument(prName, p1, p2, prOptions);
// . . .

Cheers and welcome here,

Ingo
