Create PDF button or menu entry within IE

Post by guyghk »

As with the Office integration (buttons within Word, Excel etc), would it be possible to have a Print PDF button in Internet Explorer?

A lot of the times I use the PDF writer is to save news articles / webpages, so this would be infinitely more useful than many of the other standard IE buttons.

Hi Guy,

this is coming soon'ish - most likely early/mid Feb - there is other work in progress too - but this is slated as soon as we get this done.
If posting files to this forum - you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded - thank you.

Best regards

Further suggestion

Post by guyghk »

One more suggestion related specifically to IE.

When you do put this in, would it be possible to include an option (specific to IE rather than other Office packages) that allows a date stamp within the file name.

Almost always when PDF-ing a web page, I type a date stamp into the file name, since I am mostly just archiving something for future reference.

Did this feature ever get implemented? I have PDF-XChange Pro version 4.0149, but I see no such button in my IE7; nor can I find this listed as a feature by browsing/searching the product features here on this web site.

If it remains an outstanding feature request, then please add my vote! I've wanted to do this many, many times. Thanks,

Tim
