[Resolved] - Impossible to edit PDFCreator options
Hi,
I try to use the security options on PDFCreator to protect my pdf against copying and printing.
However, I can't access print options. In fact, when I click "option", the following error message appears:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Is it an known error ? I work on a Windows server 2008. But it's the same kernel that Vista, and PDFCreator is compatible with Vista. I don't think the problem is linked to the OS.
Thank you in advance for your help,

STATUS : RESOLVED
Hi Marcus,
Many thanks for the solution and speed :). I never thought to look at these parameters.
At this point, how did you find the solution?
Have you any sites or books?
If yes, I'm interested ... I works on Win2k8, that's why, I installed it on my laptop.
PS: Not hesitate to use my personal email.
This works just like it should on a Windows Server 2008 which I installed as a standard installation after I read this solution. Thanks a bunch! The solution is accurate...

Hi Ptitpied,
I had the same problem on my Win2k8-box:
The problem is the "data execution prevention" of Windows... You can add PDFCreator to the list of exceptions. You can find the settings under "Advanced System Settings" - "Performance Settings" - "Data Execution Prevention".
Cheers
Marcus
