Since I did not see the toolbar, I uninstalled the application (0.9.8), restarted the computer, and reinstalled the application as an Administrator. I did a new installation of Windows7. The toolbars now show up in Firefox and IE8. The application works fine in Firefox, but in IE8, nothing seems to be happening. I ran the Troubleshooter application under the BrowserAddOn directory and took the suggested fix. Also, while installing the program, I got some kind of error with two files in which I selected ignore. The two files are located in the C:\\Windows\\system32\\MSCOMCT2.OCX (dated 5/22/00) and MSCOMCTL.OCX (dated 12/20/02).
At one time, after shrinking the IE window, there was a error box that came up from PDFforge. In the error box was the following:
ERROR-NR: 481 (invalid picture)
MODUL: MODMAIN
Procedure: STARTPROGRAM
Line: 51720
Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you,
Mike T.
well two browsers, sourceforge.net and microsoft !!!
i do not think that the problem is pdfcreator but certainly windows seven or your strange way to install. the real question is : pdf creator works yes or no whith seven ?
i do not know but browser ie8 or firefox seem not concerned.

Thanks for your reply rabinesse, but I did not understand any of it. I gave it one more try. I uninstalled pdfCreator and the toolbar, restarted the computer, and downloaded and reinstalled pdfCreator. PdfCreator does create these two files (MSCOMCT2/L) in the system32 directory (what I did was rename these two files before reinstalling pdfCreator). The replacement files are a newer date (3-9-04 & 4-15-05). I tried using the program without the toolbar installed and it is a no go with IE8, but worked with Firefox. In IE8, I did receive the same error message as I received above. I then installed the toolbar and in Firefox it works as it is suppose to. In IE8, I got mixed results. The first time I used it, I had pdfCreator set as the default printer. When I selected PDFCreator from the toolbar, after about ten seconds I did get the file screen, and then a smaller pop up ERROR window that had "Unexpected Error; Quitting". After I said ok, it did save the file as it was suppose to. I tried again and did not get anything. Next test was to set my HP printer as the default printer. Now when I select PDFCreator from the toolbar, it sends the page to my printer. Again, this is only happening in IE8, NOT Firefox.
Thanks again,
Mike T.
OK : let's try again... these files are coming from microsoft, and pdfcreator do not create it. it is a problem whith vba or vb, i suppose, support of microsoft (it seems you have officexp) is your friend.
is that i think after read your post and the others answers on microsoft and the others forums but i cannot be sure because, you are certain that is a pdfcreator problem so... maybe i am wrong an d it is a real problem from pdfcreator and i am not enough competent to answer you fully - sorry .
