Hi,


I am not sure if you can get excel to print silently, which would be needed in order to not see the excel window popping up.

Hi,


I do understand the question, but there is nothing in PDFCretor you could do about this.
Since PDFCreator is a virtual printer, the file needs to be printed from excel to PDFCreator; this is what is causing the popup. So you’d need to get excel to print to PDFCreator silently to get rid of the problem. 
You could try using PDF Architects free create module instead, this does a direct conversion withpout printing, so there won’t be any excel popups. You can see all available PDF Architect command line parameters by running architect.exe --help

best regards,
