doPDF (pdf creator) - Freeware
Softland:
hi there Softland, been trying out doPDF as an alternative PDF creator and i'm surprised that doPDf creates smaller & searchable PDFs.. :)
however i'm having some problems that i would like to highlight..
• 1st, after saving and the file is displayed, the extension goes missing. this happens despite typing-in the ".pdf" at the save dialog.
• 2nd, if the typed filename contains a dot or hyphen, the filename gets cut-off. e.g. "my.work.2006.pdf" is saved as on "my".
• 3rd, at the save dialog if i type-in the name of an existing file, doPDF promptly overwrites the file without any warning!
i hope you will look into this in your future releases. i also would like to suggest that make doPDF be able to remember the last saved folder, instead of prompting to save into "My Documents" each time.. :)

1 - is a bug we are aware about, will be fixed in vs 5.1
2 - same bug as 1
3 - bug, will be fixed
in vs 5.1 the last save location will be remembered. Don't know exactly the release date but it will not be too long.

thanks Softland, doDPF will be in serious contention with some fine-tuning that you mentioned.. :)

This looks like my new PDF Printer! I used to use PDFCreator but I don't want to have to do a bunch of weird stuff to make it work on Vista. Thanks Softland!
lanux128:
