Configure automatically some options

Post by Nicowkf »

Hello,

I would like to know if there is a way to configure automatically these features :
- Fit to printer margins
- Auto rotate page on paper
- Auto-center page on paper

Maybe with silent install option ? GPO / GPP ? Key register ?

Thank you for your help.

Hello Nicowkf,

Welcome to our forum.

For what product do you want to set it and which version?

Hello Dimitar,

Yes, sorry, it's for PDF XChange Editor.
For the version, that doesn't matter, with the last version is OK.

Hello Nicowkf,

Did I understand you correctly that after you updated to the latest version all of these settings are now working correctly for you?

Regards,
Stefan

Hello,

No no, I would like to configure these options automatically (GPO/GPP, Register, batch etc) , doesn't matter about the version, if I have to update to the last version it's not a problem.
Today we have :
- PDF Xchange Viewer 2.5 Build 322.8
- PDF-XChange Editor 8.0 build 333.0

Regards.

Hello Nico,

The Registry keys needed for these options to be enabled in the Editor are as follows:

Code: Select all

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Tracker Software\PDFXEditor\3.0\Settings\Operations\PrintPages]
"i.ScaleType"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Tracker Software\PDFXEditor\3.0\Settings\Operations\PrintPages\ScaleSimple]
"b.AutoCentre"=dword:00000001
"b.AutoRotate"=dword:00000001
However do not that this is not a "forced" enabled, it is instead a "first time" enabled. These options remember the last used settings at all times, so as soon as a user makes a change, that change will be remembered for future uses of the print dialog.

Kind regards,
