Leban's PDF Generator

T

Tom

Hi all:

I'm having an odd problem with Stephen Leban's PDF creator. I'm
trying to output to 11x17 sized paper. The PDF creator does its thing
and when the PDF file opens, its at 800% zoom and the pages are tiny
rectangles in the middle of Adobe Acrobat window. Some
troubleshooting information that may or may not be useful:
* saving the file, exiting Abode and reopening yields the same issue
* running the Leban's utility from a different DB (using
different .dlls) printing to 8.5x11 works fine
* I have both Adobe Acrobat 7 Standard and Adobe Reader 7 installed
* "printing" the 11x17 output to the adobe print driver from the db
yields expected results (i.e., no small page issues)
* printing the problem file to hard copy yields expected results
(i.e., the print covers the entire page)
* sending the resulting problem file to a coworker and having her open
it gives similar page size/zoom issues

Any thoughts on why I'm getting this odd page sizing/zoom issue? It’s
not a show stopper since ultimately it prints fine, but it is
extremely annoying.

Thanks

I suspect it may have to do with Adobe Preferences.

functionality etc. Should get posted today.

Posted new version tonight.
http://www.lebans.com/reporttopdf.htm
Version 2.785 May 12/2008 11:11am

New Version of DynapPDF.DLL dated March 11/2008. New Version of
StrStorage.DLL dated May 12/2008. Fixed Paper Size Bugs. Added new
functionality to allow user to Merge two separate PDF documents into a
single PDF document. Exposed Security and Permission properties. Exposed
flags for UNICODE conversion of the Text records contained within the
Metafile. Change search order for DynaPDF.DLL and StrStorage.DLL - now
searches the folder your MDB resides in before searching System32 folder.

Nice stuff!!!!

Thanks, Tony
