Error viewing a specific page of a PDF

Post by rioka »

Last week I've been notified of some problems within our application when viewing pdf files; in detail, only with some files, and only when loading specific pages, the program generates an error "invalid floating point operation".

I've investigated on the error, and the origin of the problem is within a call to PXCV_DrawPageToDC.

The error seemed not to be related to memory leaks or similar problem.

Then I tried to open one of those files with your own demos, and I've found then MS related demos (C/C#/VB) run without problems, while the Delphi one generates the same error as our application.

We have analyzed all the possible cause for this error, but

- the DC seems to be valid, since we can perform any actions on it and see the result, except that we get the error as we call PXCV_DrawPageToDC and pass our DC
- the page is actually loaded, and we get its size via PXCV_GetPageDimensions
- setting different options via .Flags does not solve the problem

I've attached one of those files, which generates the error for page 56

TIA

Hello rioka,

Thanks for your post. May I ask what is the programming language you use for the development of your own product?
Also can you please confirm that you are using build 212 of the Viewer Simple DLL SDK?

Regards,
Stefan

We're using build 212; one application is developed using Delphi, and another one using a mixed environment with a C wrapper around pxcview.dll.

Hi rioka,

Thanks for the post - I'm afraid that we don't have any ETA on the next release.

Cheers,
