Minitool Partition | Wizard License Key Free [upd]

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

    In our VB Application, we used "ised.dll" along with "pdf.ocx".  If the users has Adobe 7 installed, they get an error on the PDF.ocx file.  The pdf.ocx file came with Adobe 6, and did not come with Adobe 7 professional.
So, I new question is do I need an upgraded version of pdf.ocx for Adobe 7, or some other equivalent file from Adobe 7?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

	Hi Corky! I can remind me that i've read already something about it. The new version 7 don't use the pdf.ocx - now it's the AcroRd32.dll. How to access/use this dll is well explained/documentated on the adobe-website. I can imagine that it's a problem when the version 7 is installed/registered and you want to use the pdf.ocx. You can detect if version 7 is installed or not. If it's version 7 use code for the new dll - if not use your pdf.ocx.
	Cheers, Ingo

	Lots of developers assumed that "pdf.ocx" was there for them to use. In fact, Adobe never published documentation for it, and ONLY intended it to be used by browsers. As of Reader 7, Adobe now includes a fully documented COM object that can be used to display and print PDFs. It's documented in Adobe's IACReference.PDF.

	@chicks @ingo: Both of you mention the well documented Adobe IACReference.PDF Does anyone of you have a delphi example of how to access Adobe Reader with this COM interface?

	Hi! Is there an easy (and safe) methode to detect the local actual used reader-version? The described com-object is only for version 7 - there're still many version below 7 out there...
	Cheers, Ingo

	Hi, We are using Delphi and had the same problem. Now we create TWebBrowser and send PDF to it. Maybe it's slower but You have no problem with Reader versions.
