Force A4 (ISO) as the default page size

Post by paul-nc »

In our environment, we use the base en-us version of Windows, then apply Norwegian region and input settings.

In a lot of cases, PDF Xchange PDF Printer or Word plugins will default to US Letter size.

How can I deploy PDF XChange Pro so that A4 is the default paper size?

I've tried using a pxpp file and deploying via InTune using

Code: Select all

Start-Process -FilePath "rundll32.exe" -ArgumentList "`"C:\Program Files\Tracker Software\PDF-XChange Standard\drvui.x64.dll`",DUI30_Command /InstallProfile:`"$networkProfilePath`" /AsDefault" -Wait
And also tried using

Code: Select all

Start-Process -FilePath "C:\Program Files\Tracker Software\PDF-XChange Standard\pdfSaver.exe" -ArgumentList '/SetOption Paper.Size=9 /Printer "PDF-XChange Standard"' -Wait
But a lot of the times, the paper size does not change at all, even though no errors are given

Hi, paul-nc

you can use PDFSaver /SetOptions for this: https://help.pdf-xchange.com/sysadmin/s ... tions.html

Specifically set "Paper.Size=9" for A4:
pdfSaver /SetOptions "Paper.Size=9" /Printer "PDF-XChange Standard"

To get the right value for page size use the "Standard Inded" from the Standard Paper Sizes table here: https://help.pdf-xchange.com/pdfxdapi10 ... paper.html
