Dear Vixens and Reynards:
I am trying to get Bullzip PDF printer to work. I have an
existing app that uses Adobe's PDF printer driver, but it is awkward
to use with onerous licencing. Before modifying my program to work
with Bullzip, I would like to see that Bullzip works.
Step one is to get some output to a named file. Step two is to
get some output to a named file from VFP. Step three is integration
with my app.
I am stuck on step one.
I have created a runonce.ini in what is apparently the correct
directory. (I assume so as this file gets deleted when I try to
print through Bullzip.) The directory is
C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\PDF Writer\Bullzip PDF Printer
From c:\cbs2dev, I opened Notepad and created a short text file
(not saved).
The runonce.ini is:
***** Start of File *****
[PDF Printer]
Output=c:\cbs2dev\bullzip\test.pdf
ConfirmOverwrite=no
ConfirmNewFolder=no
ShowSaveAS=never
ShowPDF=yes
***** End of File *****
Note that the directory for where the file is to go is a
subdirectory of where Notepad opened from. The c:\cbs2dev\bullzip
directory does exist.
The dialog for selecting the filename et al comes up with
c:\cbs2dev (not c:\cbs2dev\bullzip) and with the name test.pdf. As
far as I can see, I have configured that dialog to not show up.
If I change the filename in the runonce.ini, the new name shows
up in the dialog. The directory is still wrong.
Somehow, I got it to work once before, but now, no.
No, I am not forgetting to recreate the runonce.ini on subsequent tries.
Any ideas?
Sincerely,
Gene Wirchenko
