Using /PF option with different options

PDFCreator PDFCreator English
1

Hi - I owuld like to use the command-line option /PF to create a PDF from an access /VBA application using the autosave mode but also have the option to create PDF's manually not using the autosave mode.

I manged to open PDF creator in either  autosave or non autosave mode by using two opton.ini files and the lines like:

shell("c:\\program pdfcreator\\pdfcreator.exe /OptionsFile"C:\\auto.ini") or

shell("c:\\program pdfcreator\\pdfcreator.exe /OptionsFile"C:\\default.ini")

This works fine for the first instance but once created further calls dont change the options - i.e. I wanted to change the mode to auto, create the PDF, change the mode back to default:

shell("c:\\program pdfcreator\\pdfcreator.exe /OptionsFile"C:\\auto.ini")
shell("c:\\program pdfcreator\\pdfcreator.exe /PF"C:\\document.doc")
shell("c:\\program pdfcreator\\pdfcreator.exe /OptionsFile"C:\\auto.ini")

But I cant get this to work - how can I change the option file once loaded or close the program from the commandline so I can reopen it in the correct mode?

Thanks

Hello,
have you find the solution? I have the same problem with version 1.6.2.

First program start work perfectly and use the .ini-file:
pdfcreator /PF"c:\test1.doc" /OptionsFile"c:\option1.ini"

But the second start
pdfcreator /PF"c:\test2.doc" /OptionsFile"c:\option2.ini"

don’t work! PdfCreator use always “option1.ini”.

Hi,

Since version 0.9.9 the old ini mode is not supported anymore.
