Won't stop printing
Sun, 08/30/2009 - 21:32
After many re installs and reboots to get the new version to actually print internet pages like the old one, it now only wants to print the same page multiple times. Have had to put it on 'stop'. I am pulling my hair out as I have never had an issue before. There have been no error messages and set up file show correct installation. I'm not too technical so I am looking for a 'laymans' solution to this...I just want to be able to print online receipts and such like.


I had the same problem when installing the latest version 0.9.8 on my Windows Vista Premium.
Also I could not delete the printjob: It would pop up right back and PdfCreator kept asking me to print. I found out that this has to do with the security of the PDFCreatorSpool directory. (Typically at ..\Program Files\PDFCreator\Temp\PDFCreatorSpool)
I resolved it in giving the "Users" group "Full control", "Modify" and "Write" permissions:
* Select in internet explorer the PDFCreatorSpool directory.
* Press the right mouse button: select "Properties".
* Choose the "Security" tab and find the "Users" group press Edit.
* Add "Full control", "Modify" and "Write" permissions.
After that, the temporary files created in that directory could be removed (using the PDF print monitor) and all worked normally.
