75 (Path / File access error)

 I keep getting this error, I tried different paths, differente file names, I do have read/write acces to this directory with other programs, but since a while PDF won't print anymore.

I' 've tried reboot/ reinstall / complete cleanup before installing, but without result.

 

Anyone? Who can solve this problem?

When I select the pdf Creator from the printer selection nothing happens it does not open

Hi,

 

which Windows and PDFCreator version are you running?

 

regards,

 

Robin

I am having the same problem

It used to work

I am using 1.4.3 with Windows 7 64Bit now pdf creator will not open

I have un installed and re installed several times

Hi,

 

hard to tell what is causing this, could you please post your setuplog.txt here? Does PDFCreator not open at all? or is it not able to create pdfs?

 

regards,

 

Robin

Hi, this happens at home. How can I check if I have a problem with the permission of a user/folder/directory?

Thanks

 

Hi,

 

it would be very helpfull, if you could enable advanced logging by adding the following DWORD (32 bit) value to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\Print\\Monitors\\pdfcmon in your registry: name : Logging, value :1. This will cause PDFCreator to create an advanced logfile at %Windir%\\Temp\\_pdfcmonLog.txt. Also activate logging in PDFCreator (under printer in main menu) and send us the logs (support@pdfforge.org). It will help us to identify and solve the problem.

 

regards,

 

Robin

Hi,

 

@possumgully if you disable logging in the PDF print monitor, this error will dissappear.

 

 

regards,

 

Robin

Hi,

 

does this happen on your home PC or at work?

Maybe you don´t have sufficient permissions to write to your TMP directory.

Please take a look if this is the case.

 

regards,

 

Robin

Hi, I am also facing error 75 when I try to print the test page. When i try to print any other document i select PDF creator as a printer and then nothing happens. Sorry, but i do not understand your explanation above. How can I solve my problem? Any way to go back to version 1.3.2 which worked without problems on my PC (windows 7)?

Thanks
