Kapil,
could you provide a little bit more information? Can you give us a piece of your source code? |

hi JanN, Here is a code snippet CoInitialize(NULL); CComPtr<IQuickPDF> qp; qp.CoCreateInstance(CLSID_QuickPDF); qp->UnlockKey("---------------------------------"); long filehandle = qp->DAOpenFile("c.pdf", "");qp->DANewPage(filehandle ); qp->SelectPage(2); qp->DrawText(100, 500, "Why I cannot write ??? "); qp->DAAppendFile(filehandle); |

The DirectAccess functions are completely separate from the other functions. You cannot use e.g. DrawText in combination with the DA functions.
To add text you have to do something like this: ... qp->LoadFromFile("test.pdf"); qp->NewPage; // automatically selected as current page qp->DrawText(100, 500, "Now you should be able to write :) ??? "); qp->SaveToFile("test2.pdf"); ... |

Kapil,
with the DA functions you can work with files without having to load them into memory. But the possible changes are limited - as you already experienced. ;) |

I'm afraid I cannot help you in this case. I have no experience with radio buttons or other form fields.
Please create a new thread for this problem. |
