Hello,

I'm evaluating QuickPDFLibrary, I think that is a very good library. Great Joob.
I've problems with QuickPDFDLL0811.dll in C++ version (MS 2008);
When I try to use SETPDFAMode and save the document, the document is not PDF/A compliance.

Is any limitation with Evaluation Keys?

Any help wold be apreciated Wink

My code:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include "QuickPDFDLL0811.h"

std::wstring Utf8ToUtf16(const std::string &s)
{
    std::wstring ret;
    int len = MultiByteToWideChar(CP_UTF8, 0, s.c_str(), s.length(), NULL, 0);
    if (len > 0)
    {
      ret.resize(len);
      MultiByteToWideChar(CP_UTF8, 0, s.c_str(), s.length(), const_cast<wchar_t*>(ret.c_str()), len);
    }
    return ret;
}

std::string Utf16ToUtf8(const std::wstring &s)
{
    std::string ret;
    int len = WideCharToMultiByte(CP_UTF8, 0, s.c_str(), s.length(), NULL, 0, NULL, NULL);
    if (len > 0)
    {
      ret.resize(len);
      WideCharToMultiByte(CP_UTF8, 0, s.c_str(), s.length(), const_cast<char*>(ret.c_str()), len, NULL, NULL);
    }
    return ret;
}

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{

    QuickPDFDLL0811 QP(Utf8ToUtf16("QuickPDFDLL0811.dll"));
    int iResult = QP.UnlockKey(Utf8ToUtf16("MyRegKey"));
    QP.SetPDFAMode(2);
    QP.SetOrigin(1);

    int fontID1 = QP.AddTrueTypeFont(Utf8ToUtf16("Times New Roman"), 1);
    QP.SelectFont(fontID1);

    QP.DrawText(25, 25, Utf8ToUtf16("This text was drawn using the DrawText function."));
    if(QP.SaveToFile(Utf8ToUtf16("PDF-A_Document.pdf"))==1)
    {
        _tprintf(_T("grabado\n"));
    }
    else
    {
        _tprintf(_T("no grabado\n"));
    }

    return 0;
}

Hi Josep!

Who tells you that the resulting document isn't real PDF/A?
With AddTrueTypeFont you won't EMBED the font and
embedding the used fonts is necessary to get a PDF/A-document.

Cheers and welcome here,
Ingo

Hi Ingo,

My document is not PDF/A beause I don't see legend on Acrobat Reader that says:
"The file you have opened complies with the PDF/A standard and has been opened read-only to prevent modificacion.

My code is based on samples at QuickPDF Library 8.11 console (2.11), on Document Management/Create PDF-A Document. When I run this sample, the PDF/A is correct, but when I run in my Visual Studio 2008 c++ project, it run but is not PDF/A compliance.

When I created this code on QPL console it works fine, and the PDF is PDF/A:

QP.SetPDFAMode(2);
QP.SetOrigin(1);
var fontID1 = QP.AddTrueTypeFont("Times New Roman", 1);
QP.SelectFont(fontID1);
QP.DrawText(25, 25, "This text was drawn using the DrawText function.");
QP.SaveToFile(GetOutputFolder() + "PDF-A_Document.pdf");
DisplayPDFReader(GetOutputFolder() + "PDF-A_Document.pdf");

thanks Ingo, any help would be apreciated.
