error on start: "2.0 is not a valid floating point value" ?

Hello mouser,
thank you for the program, its a great idea..
but I can´t make it work. when I start the program it shows this error:

'2.0' is not a valid floating point value

Then the program starts, but when I have selected the start frame and end frame, and press preview, the pages appear blank.

I have windows xp.
Do you know what might be the problem?

thank you!
Manu

mouser:
try deleting the flipbookprinter.ini file in the program directory and see if the error goes away -
or actually even better just rename it to something like flipbookprinter_old.ini so that if the error does go away you can send it to me so i can see if i can figure out what's wrong.

i will try to reproduce the error.

manucoloma:

Thank you
I renamed the file FlipbookPrinter.ini but the error persists

Could it be because I don´t have the printer connected right now? (It is being repaired)

here is the file anyway:

mouser:
and the error occurs right at startup, before you even load any movie file, is that right?

i'll test it on a computer with no printer - i suppose it could be that but the error doesnt sound like it.

ps. if anyone else gets this error let me know.

ps2. is it an english version of windows?

ps3. another thing to try, go to the CardStockTemplates/ directory and temporarily move those files out of there, to see if its not somehow an error reading one of those files.

manucoloma:
Yes, the error occurs right at startup. It is spanish Windows Xp.
I moved the CardStock Templates and the error doesn´t happen anymore :-)
but still the papers appear blank when I press preview.. It looks like its gonna be because of not having the printer connected...
thank you again.
