About PDF Tools

Posted on Jul. 26 2006

I wrote all of these tools for my own use, when I needed a particular tool for a particular task at a particular time.

I'm making them available, some with source code, in the hope that you might also find them useful.

There are no guarantees that any of these tools will work for you, and you use them entirely at your own risk. I accept no responsiblity for any damage that may be caused by their use.

thank you for this tool, its just the thing we need. And yes, printertray-selection is possible! The problem is, that your traynumbers are wrong.You have to get the real numbers which depends on your printer, and not just 1-15. Here is the code for VB6 to get the right numbers:

Private Sub ListPaperBins()Dim PaperBins() As StringDim lBinCount As Long
Dim lBinNumbers() As Integer
Dim sBinNames As String
Dim lNullPos As Long
Dim i As Long

MsgBox Printer.DeviceName
With Printer
    ' Anzahl unterstützter Papierschächte ermitteln:
    lBinCount = DeviceCapabilities(.DeviceName, .Port, _
                DC_BINS, ByVal vbNullString, 0)
    ' Speicherplatz für die Rückgaben reservieren
    ReDim lBinNumbers(1 To lBinCount)
    sBinNames = Space$(24 * lBinCount)
    ' Nummern vorhandener Papierschächte abholen:
    DeviceCapabilities .DeviceName, .Port, DC_BINS, lBinNumbers(1), 0
    ' Namen der vorhandenen Papierschächte abholen:
    DeviceCapabilities .DeviceName, .Port, DC_BINNAMES, ByVal sBinNames, 0
End With
' Schachtnummern und -namen extrahieren
' und im zweidimensionalen Array PaperBins ablegen:
ReDim PaperBins(0 To lBinCount - 1, 0 To 1)
For i = 1 To lBinCount
    ' Schachtnummer:
    PaperBins(i - 1, 0) = lBinNumbers(i)
    ' Schachtname:
    PaperBins(i - 1, 1) = Mid$(sBinNames, 24 * (i - 1) + 1, 24)
    ' Im Bedarfsfall das Stringende kürzen:
    lNullPos = InStr(PaperBins(i - 1, 1), vbNullChar)
    If lNullPos > 0 Then
      PaperBins(i - 1, 1) = Left$(PaperBins(i - 1, 1), lNullPos - 1)
    End If
Next i
' Die gefundenen Daten in das Direktfenster ausgeben:
Debug.Print "Vorhandene Papierschächte des Druckers " _
              & Printer.DeviceName & " am Anschluss " _
              & Printer.Port & " :"
For i = LBound(PaperBins) To UBound(PaperBins)
    Debug.Print PaperBins(i, 0) & ": " & PaperBins(i, 1)
Next i
End Sub

Thanks thanks thanks Chicks for your great work on pdfp. But with Adobe 9 I have an new problem.

pdfp is very usefull but there is just one thing missing.
Isn't it possible to choose the printers paper-tray via the DDE-interface ?

best regards

I haven't installed Reader 9 yet, and have no plans to for a while. Adobe just keeps adding bloat and useless junk, so there's no good reason to update IMHO.

But with Adobe 9 I have an new problem. If I open my pdf file with it to print it out it sets the Print-Option "Choose Paper Source by PDF page size". So far so good, because I want that. But if I use pdfp8 Adobe 9 Reader doesn´t set this option and my pdf files will print in a wrong way. I hope you can help me.

Thanks for any advise.
