PDFCreator (COM object) fails to convert (or open) an excel spread sheet file

PDFCreator PDFCreator English
1

using the COM interop clsPDFCreatorClass, the class is created but the call to convert the excel file (*.xls) fails.

The same call to convert a *.txt document works.

When I open the PDFCreator.exe and try to add the same document (*.xls) ... it will not add the document. I can open a *.txt document OK; also the test page prints OK.

I have Excel viewer 2003 installed on the VM.

I am using PDF Creator v1.7.2

The OS is Windows 7, SP1 32 bit

Hi,

Does the excel viewer have printing ability?
If yes, what happens when you print the .xls from the viewer to the PDFCreator manually?

regards,

Robin
