PDF Printer Settings | |||||||||||
Output | The output setting allows you to direct the output of the PDF printer to a specific file. When this setting is set the printer will not ask the user for a destination file name. When setting the output it must specify a valid file name including the full path for a PDF document. I.e. C:TEMPTEST.PDF where c:temp is a valid folder. If the output folder does not exist then the PDF generation will fail. Beginning with version 2.0.0.22 the output setting allows macro names as part of the file name. The following macro names can be used:
When using the macro names in the settings.ini file the output parameter could look something like this: Output=<env:appdata><docname> <date>.pdf | ||||||||||
ShowPDF | Specifies if the resulting PDF file should be shown after generation. This setting can have the following values: yes, no, ask. | ||||||||||
SettingsProgram | This setting allows you to hook into the printing process and change some of the settings used to generate the PDF document. Using this setting you can specify an external program which will be launched by the printer before the PDF document is generated. The program will receive a file name as parameter. This file contains the current settings for the PDF document. The program can read these settings and modify them. The modified settings should be saved to the same settings file and the program must terminate after that. When the external program has terminated the printing process will continue based on the changed settings in the settings file. In the current version you can change the Title, the Creator and the Author settings. | ||||||||||
AfterPrintProgram | The AfterPrintProgram setting is a hook into the printing process. If you specify this setting it must contain a file name of an external program to launch when the PDF document is created. The external program will receive the file name of the settings file as a parameter. The printer will not continue before the external program has terminated. | ||||||||||
PDF Watermark Settings | |||||||||||
WatermarkText | The text you want in your watermark. | ||||||||||
WatermarkSize | An integer value between 1 and 100 indicating the size of the watermark text. The default value is 6. | ||||||||||
WatermarkTransparency | A transparency percentage from 0 to 100 determines the darkness of the watermark. 0 is black and 100 is white (invisible). Normal values are in the range from 70 to 90. | ||||||||||
WatermarkRotation | The water mark can be rotated. Specify an integer value between 0 and 360. You can also specify the value 'c2c' or '-c2c'. This will rotate the watermark in the direction 'Corner to Corner'. | ||||||||||
PDF Merge Settings | |||||||||||
MergeFile | Specifies a PDF file name if you want to merge the current output with an existing PDF file. | ||||||||||
MergePosition | If you specify a merge file this parameter will determine the position of current PDF output in the merged result. Valid values are 'bottom' (append) and 'top' (prepend). The default is 'bottom', which will append your current PDF output to the PDF file specified in the MergeFile parameter. | ||||||||||
Superimpose | With the superimpose parameter you can lay two documents on top of each other. The superimpose parameter must point to a PDF file name, which will be the template. All pages of your current output will be created with the first page of the superimposed PDF file as background. Please note that if your current output paints the background you will not be able to see the template underneath. | ||||||||||
PDF Security Settings | |||||||||||
OwnerPassword | Password for the owner of the document. | ||||||||||
UserPassword | Password for the users of the document. | ||||||||||
KeyLength | Specifies the length of the encryption key. Valid lengths are 40 and 128 bits. The default key length is 40 bits. | ||||||||||
Permissions | Permissions that apply to the users who access the document via the user password. See the permissions section for more details. | ||||||||||
PDF Document Settings | |||||||||||
Target | The target device sets the quality of the PDF document. Better quality results in larger PDF files. Available targets are screen, ebook, printer, prepress and default. Please note that it is case sensitive. Specifying an invalid value will most likely result in an empty pdf file. | ||||||||||
Author | Author of the PDF document. | ||||||||||
Title | Title of the PDF document. | ||||||||||
Subject | Subject of the PDF document. | ||||||||||
Keywords | Keywords of the PDF document. |

Unattended Installation
Command Line Parameters
/SP- | Disables the startup prompt. |
/SILENT, /VERYSILENT | Instructs Setup to be silent or very silent. When Setup is silent the wizard and the background window are not displayed but the installation progress window is. When a setup is very silent this installation progress window is not displayed.

/SUPPRESSMSGBOXES | Instructs Setup to suppress message boxes. Only has an effect when combined with '/SILENT' and '/VERYSILENT'. |
/NOCANCEL | Prevents the user from canceling during the installation process, by disabling the Cancel button and ignoring clicks on the close button. Useful along with '/SILENT' or '/VERYSILENT'. |
/NORESTART | Instructs Setup not to reboot even if it's necessary. |
/RESTARTEXITCODE=exit code | Specifies the custom exit code that Setup is to return when a restart is needed. Useful along with '/NORESTART'. Also see Setup Exit Codes. |

Distributing GPL Ghostscript
- Locate folder where you have the printer driver setup program.
- Create a folder named GS next to the setup program.
- Locate a normal installation of Ghostscript installed by the Ghostscript setup program.
- Copy the contents of the
FONTS
,BIN
andLIB
folders to the created GS folder. - That's it!
Network Distribution
- Make sure that all computers have the program installed.
- Make sure that all computers have the latest version.
- Doing the above without having to run the setup program every time a user logs on.
- Automatic distribution of GPL Ghostscript as well as the printer driver.
DISTRIB.BAT
. If you place this batch file in a folder together with the setup program the installed version can be checked every time you run the batch file. If the version does not match the one set in the VersionName variable the setup program is started. Change the settings in the beginning of the batch file to match your environment. You can include the Ghostscript distribution folder GS together with this if you want to distribute Ghostscript with the batch file. PDF Permissions
When you protect your PDF documents with passwords you can optionally specify a set of permissions. The permissions determine which kind of access the user password will provide. Using the permissions you can prohibit the user from printing and using cut and paste operations. See the table below for a complete overview. The table is part of the PDF reference (third edition). Go to www.adobe.com for a complete reference.
BIT POSITION | MEANING |
---|---|
1–2 | Reserved; must be 0. |
3 | (Revision 2) Print the document. (Revision 3) Print the document (possibly not at the highest quality level, depending on whether bit 12 is also set). |
4 | Modify the contents of the document by operations other than those controlled by bits 6, 9, and 11. |
5 | (Revision 2) Copy or otherwise extract text and graphics from the document, including extracting text and graphics (in support of accessibility to disabled users or for other purposes). (Revision 3) Copy or otherwise extract text and graphics from the document by operations other than that controlled by bit 10. |
6 | Add or modify text annotations, fill in interactive form fields, and, if bit 4 is also set, create or modify interactive form fields (including signature fields). |
7–8 | Reserved; must be 1. |
9 | (Revision 3 only) Fill in existing interactive form fields (including signature fields), even if bit 6 is clear. |
10 | (Revision 3 only) Extract text and graphics (in support of accessibility to disabled users or for other purposes). |
11 | (Revision 3 only) Assemble the document (insert, rotate, or delete pages and create bookmarks or thumbnail images), even if bit 4 is clear. |
12 | (Revision 3 only) Print the document to a representation from which a faithful digital copy of the PDF content could be generated. When this bit is clear (and bit 3 is set), printing is limited to a lowlevel representation of the appearance, possibly of degraded quality. (See implementation note 16 in Appendix H.) |
13–32 | (Revision 3 only) Reserved; must be 1. |
A number of the bits listed above are reserved and must be 0 whereas others must be 1. If you combine all the mandatory reserved bits you get a decimal value of 61632. With that number as a base you can add the bit values of the permissions you want. Let's say you want the user to have print and copy permissions then you add bit 3 for printing and bit 5 for copy. The permission value is then 61632 + 4 + 16 = 61652.
