Can PDFCreator be made to run unattended?

Hi,

I have an old (16 bit) Visual FoxPro application which generates customer reports.  Each report must be converted to PDF format with the file named according to the report type and reference.  The file must then be e-mailed to the customer's e-mail address.

In order for this to be achieved without the need for user/operator interaction, is it possible to populate the PDF file name and e-mail parameters, then initiate the conversion and e-mail processes, with either a Windows Run command or VB script?

If so, can you provide some sample code?

Thank you in anticipation.

Hello,

this sounds doable, I can´t give you any sample code adressing this issue directly but you can find multiple samples for various subjects in the COM folder of your PDFCreator installation.

regards,

Robin
