How to create image-based pdf

PDFCreator PDFCreator English
1

I am using the COM object to create pdf documents that view just fine in Adobe Reader versions 5 and up, but do not display correctly in another viewer (icmviewer) we use from IBM in their Content Manager product.  I am told that creating image-based pdfs will work...I presume that means no embeded fonts?  Which attributes or parameters in the clsPDFCreatorOptions should be set to create in that format?

Thanks!

If you want to have image-based pdfs you have to save the file as tiff. After this you can convert the tiff to an pdf with the pdfforge.dll coming with PDFCreator. (for example as Action after saving)
Take a look at the script Images2PDF.vbs in the folder PDFCreator\\PlugIns\\pdfforge.
