When the installation is complete we can check installed fonts in any text editor. Want to install new fonts or remove unwanted ones? Here's how, along with the quickest way to change font settings. Jan 27, 2016. I'm not sure why it would be trying to put the files in that particular directory. What is the setting for your font directory and font cache directory? By default it should be dompdf/lib/fonts.

Ok, so you have that neat little excel report ready and now you want to share it with your boss or client in a PDF format. So how would you do that? • The best option is to upgrade to SP2 of Microsoft Office 2007 (download the service pack 2 from ) and then use the “Save As PDF” feature provided by MS. • The next best option is to install. It is a free software that will create a new printer called PrimoPDF. You can print excel files to this printer and then it creates PDF files and places them in a location of your choice. I like Primo PDF alot and use it from Office 2003.

• The third option is to install and open the excel file there and use the save as PDF options. This can be a little messy as openoffice tends to spoil the excel look and feel when you open the files in openoffice calc application. • The fourth option is to use one of the online conversion tools (they often messup the layouts) like. The annoying part with this service is that, you need to tell them your email id so that they can mail you the PDF when it is ready. There are few services where you can download the PDF online. • The fifth option is to upload the excel file to and use the export to PDF feature of google spreadsheets. This is good if your excel file has very little formatting and not really complicated.

As google spreadsheets doesnt have lots of features that are in excel, you might see broken content, alignment and formatting when you try to open an excel file there. • If you are using MS Office on Mac, then you have it easy.

Just hit the print button, select the PDF option and you have the PDF ready. Have I missed any Excel spreadsheet to PDF conversion methods? What is your favorite way to convert spreadsheets to PDF? At work I frequently publish my polished Excel reports to PDF for distribution. Alas, I am forced to use Acrobat. Question for anyone. My corporate reports include a very nice logo image that looks fine when printed from Excel, but the conversion to PDF renders it as a smeared mess.

Does anyone know how to preserve the quality of images? I have BMP, GIF, JPG, and PNG versions available, but all of them come out looking very unprofessional in PDF. I have tried twiddling the quality settings in 'Acrobash' to no avail. @Ken Plus: thanks for the links. I really liked your article on automating excel to PDF conversion.

@JoBrad: All the tools recommended here (primopdf, cutepdf, pdfforge etc.) have the basic capabilities that satisfy pretty much any day to day need. If you are in to professional printing or need to control the layout very tightly, my suggestion would be to try one of the commercial apps like acrobat. They are lot more flexible and provide good support. @Andy: did you try messing with image options in excel and setting the dpi parameters?

I know this will work only with excel printing, but if the PDF conversion you are using works like a printer, then the PDF file should be of higher quality. Also primoPDF has options to change the pdf quality. I've had similar issues. I have '07 SP1 on one box and SP2 on another. SP1 works fine (I'm guessing the Add-In works differently from SP2) SP2 is definitely the problem. SP2 just produces useless output when saving as PDF with the built in functions.

One of our IT guys has dug around the net a bit for a solution (beyond the hotfix). There's a lot of chatter about MS 'Image rendering' being the problem (a bit beyond my understanding) Some suspicion is that an earlier update introduced the problem and a later fix is being developed to correct the rendering without negating all the original hotfixes fixes.

@Justin, SP1 and SP2 both worked fine until an automatic update recently. I have found that if I use scaling when creating the XL document and if it is not set at 100%, I will have this error when saving as PDF. Any graph, drawing or picture will be saved as 100% on the PDF and the rest is at the scale I had before, for example 84%. This makes the entire document unreadable. It was not a problem until about a month ago. I can not pinpoint the update that caused the problem. Maybe someone else can figure it out.

I have finally figured out the absolutely best way to go. I converted my computer systems to Linux. Everything works wonderfully! There is no boot up time, there are no frustrating update processes requiring restarts, there are no windows crashes and no wasted time reading through hundreds of Microsoft pages for trouble shooting solutions. If you want to get rid of the bloat ware and head aches forever, switch to Linux.

There is no reason not to. You can install over 2000 free software to use, ranging from graphic design to computer programming. You don't get viruses.

You don't have to pay all these licensing fees. And number one, you don't have to deal with Microsoft ever again! By the way, all your windows based documents and work files you have, will open in Linux applications. You can also install and run Linux on you windows computer as a separate partition. You will be able to access all the windows files from Linux.

I continued working with the Excel files I had problems with in windows and they opened fine in Open Office spreadsheet. Converting to pdf is a piece of cake, you just click 'export as pdf' and it's done. The only thing I regret is that I didn't do it years ago. There is no going back to windows.

Y'all have a great day! @Chandoo, well, I didn't convert to Linux only for making pdfs. I did it because I was so sick and tired of Microsoft running my computer instead of myself.

WinXP is ok, but Vista is the worst I have ever experienced in computers. When you work on deadlines, you have to run 3 computers simultaneously because one is always bogged down by windows updates. So, yes, I am very happy with the decision and I will never go back to Windows.

Your blogg renders well on Linux, but I won't need anymore advise on Windows. Check out Ubuntulinux. The Dumbest Generation Mark Bauerlein Pdf Free. org and try it!

Microsoft products and pdf have a real strange interaction. For example, if you are in Powerpoint and have deck that navigates using hyperlinks to other slides within the deck and save as a pdf, the navigation will work in the pdf. ( I am using the Microsoft Office Professional 2010 and latest Adobe Acrobat Professional). However, if you have an Excel file with hyperlink navigation within the file and save as pdf then it will not work in the pdf file.

Even if you print to a pdf file the navigation does not work. @ Dear All, there is a small VBA which i have learnt and tweaked to save n number of excel worksheet of single active workbook. Make sure no sheet would be hidden otherwise it will throw an error. What this code do? This will save your current active workbook's all worksheet with date and time stamp to the same directory where your workbook is saved. Naming convention is like Name of workbook -Name of Worksheet-Date and time Sub tp() Dim s As Integer For s = 1 To Worksheets.Count Worksheets(s).ExportAsFixedFormat xlTypePDF, ThisWorkbook.Path & ' ' & ThisWorkbook.Name & '-' & Worksheets(s).Name & '-' & Format(Now, 'ddmmyyyy-hhmmss') & '.pdf' Next s End Sub There are few more things like Saving all sheet in a single pdf.

/* Folks, There is an excellent tutorial from Rasmus Lerdorf available at (It does not support I.E.)

I was having trouble with streaming inline PDf's using PHP 5.0.2, Apache 2.0.54. This is my code: It would work fine in Mozilla Firefox (1.0.7) but with IE (6.0.2800.1106) it would not bring up the Adobe Reader plugin and instead ask me to save it or open it as a PHP file. Oddly enough, I turned off ZLib.compression and it started working. I guess the compression is confusing IE. I tried leaving out the content-length header thinking maybe it was unmatched filesize (uncompressed number vs actual received compressed size), but then without it it screws up Firefox too. What I ended up doing was disabling Zlib compression for the PDF output pages using ini_set: Maybe this will help someone.

Will post over in the PDF section as well. I found this info about pdflib scope on a Chinese (I think) site and translated it. I was trying to do pdf_setfont and kept getting the wrong scope error. Turns out it has to be in the Page scope. So pdf_setfont will only work when called between pdf_begin_page and pdf_end_page.

######################################### When API of the PDFlib is called, the error, Can't - IN 'document' scope occurs There is a concept of ' the scope ' in the PDFlib, as for all API of the PDFlib it is called with some scope, the *1 which is decided This error occurs when it is called other than the scope where API is appointed. The chart below in reference, please verify API call position.

How to get how many pages in a PDF? I read PDF spec.

V1.6 and find this: PDF set a 'Page Tree Node' to define the ordering of pages in the document. The tree structure allows PDF applications, using little memory to quickly open a document containing thousands of pages. If a PDF have 63 pages, the page tree node will like this. 2 0 obj >endobj [P.S] a PDF may not only a pages tree node, The right answer is in 'root page tree node', if /Count XX with /Parent XXX node, it not 'root page tree node' SO, You must find the node with /Count XX and Without /Parent terms, and you'll get total pages of PDF%PDF-1.0 ~%PDF-1.5 all works Alex form Taipei,Taiwan. I was searching for a lowcost/opensource option for combining static html files [as templates] and dynamic output from perl or php routines etc.

And the sooner or later I found out that this was the most stable, 'speedest' and customizeable way to produce usable pdf 's with nice formatting: 1] create html page output [perl->html output, direct html output from any app or php echo's etc.
