Hi,

Is it possible to directly and automatically save to a PDF file without having the PDF24 Assistant appear. Can this be done by writing to the registry, for example.

Thanks

Currently not. We work on that.

Currently we don't know what is the best solutiuon. We can install an second printer which saves the file directly without user interaction or we can use the current printer and configure the printer to save files directly.

What would you prefer?

Thanks for your reply.

I propose the following solution, which may be very easy to implement:

The end user (i.e me) write a registry entry with the file name. When PDF24 detects the file name registry entry, it does not show the Assistant and just writes to the file. After completion PDF24 removes the registry entry, so that the process can start again.

Extrapolating, this solution may also work for direct mailing also. The user writes all email related settings (like email address & subject etc) to registry and when printout is sent to PDF printer, Assistant is not shown again and mail is sent automatically.

What do you think?

Anything new on that subject ?

I was looking EXACTLY for the same functionality right now.

Having a registry entry would be a good solution.

Any timeline ?

By the way, I discovered your product today. Really user friendly.

Thanks

This features is still on TODO. We have thought about that and we think that a COM-Interface is a good solution to kill several birds with one stone.

The COM interface is, as I think, the solution with the largest expense, but I try to get some resources for this feature.
