I installed PDFCreator 1.3.1 yesterday on Windows 7 64 bit.
Only the Testpage prduduces a colored output.
All other prints replace colors with greyscale.
No changes could solve the problem.
No search on the internet and in this forum showed this issue.
Does anybody know the problem and a solution?
Thanks Chris
Hi,
which program(s) do you use for printing? A lot of the time this problem is caused by the program from which the files are printed to PDF. Could you maybe upload a sample image for which the colors get replaced by greyscale (if possible)?

A new test showed that drag & drop with jpeg files works with color.
The same jpegs using print still comes out in greyscale !!!
Anyone any idea ???
Hi,
it sounds like it has something to do with your printer settings, make sure that you have set colored printing on the paper/quality screen (for PDFCreator printer in Windows printing settings).

Hi
I have a similar problem
printer settings are set to colour
Printing to a printer is all ok
When converting to PDF some images are colour but some come out greyscale
eg: a simple bar chart comes out colour
A 3D bar chart comes out greyscale
A dashboard gauge comes out greyscale
any help appreciated

just to add
I have tried unticking the compression on images but still the same issue occurs
I have a similar problem - it's not something that I've noticed before. Using pdf creator as the "print to", I scanned three pages of a a document. From the HP scanner I "printed" three pdf files using pdf creator. These three single pages were in colour.
I then restarted pdf creator, and combined the three pages into a single pdf document. It did this OK, but the new pdf document was grey scale.
Nothing was changed between the original scanning/creation of the three pages and then combining them!
Any ideas as to what is happening?
I've done this process many times in the past and have not noticed this - but have not used pdf creator for a month or so.
Hi,
i tried to reproduce this error but I always got colors and no greyscale.
Could you provide some sample images which cause this error? Otherwise it is very hard to tell what the problem is.
