Saveas screen flashes for a moment although using autosave

PDFCreator PDFCreator English
1
PDFCreator (v171) installed as printer on citrix (XenApp).

Custom made application automates PDFCreator through COM and using Autosave option :

    With pdfjob        
        .cOption("UseAutosave") = 1        
        .cOption("UseAutosaveDirectory") = 1        
        .cOption("AutosaveDirectory") = sPDFPath        
        .cOption("AutosaveFilename") = sPDFName        
        .cOption("AutosaveFormat") = 0    ' 0 = PDF       
        .cClearCache        
    End With

This results in automated saving of pdf document.  So far so good in development (winxp) environment.

When installed under citrix environment the pdf is saved fine using the autosave method, however "SaveAs" screen is shown for a very brief moment confusing the user.

Hi,


could you enable logging (on the PDF Print Monitor Printer->Logging) and post a log for any printjob which shows the “save as” dialog allthough it shouldn’t and if possible a screenshot of it.
We can’t think of any reason why this is happening.

regards,

Robin

Hi,

sorry we haven’t been able to reproduce this here, is this still happening in version 1.7.3?

best regards
