Pdf add-in problem
Hi
I am using Excel 2007 and have installed the Microsoft's PDF Add-in. I have also developed my own Add-in which is used by our product to generate Reports. Everything was working fine till the point the solution was deployed on different machines/computers. And suddenly the PDF Add-in stopped working by giving message about being no default printer installed. On some investigations I found out that the PDF Add-in does not work if there is no Printer installed on the box. But could not find this instruction on the download page of the Add-in on Microsoft's site. So my question is does this PDF Add-in really need at least one printer to be installed? Do we have to install any specific printer driver? Is it necessary that the printer has to be there physically or only the driver will do? Any information related to Microsoft's PDF Add-in is appreciated. Thanks in advance. |

Working OK here but all my VPC have a Office version with OneNote in it.

Hi Anand
I setup a VPC with WinXP and Ofice 2007 Pro If no printer is installed you see the Msgbox when you try to use the add-in with the text "add a printer........................................... " StartSettings..Printers and faxes Add printer Local printer (uncheck auto detect) I installed the first printer in the list Not print a test page OK Now the add-in is working So you only need the driver of a printer -- Regards Ron de Bruin http://www.rondebruin.nl/tips.htm "Ron de Bruin" wrote in message ...

Thx for the information.
IF the PDF Add-in needs a printer driver then why the MS guys didn't mention it anywhere. -Aannd "Ron de Bruin" wrote: See my reply from 3 days ago Hi Anand I setup a VPC with WinXP and Ofice 2007 Pro If no printer is installed you see the Msgbox when you try to use the add-in with the text "add a printer...........................................
