Ok, That made a difference, but I need to run this from ASP so can I include the same parameters and how?

<%
    Set comEXEShell = Server.CreateObject("exeshell.shell")
    comEXEShell.RunCommandLine "Administrator", "password", "C:\doc2any_cmd\doc2any.exe C:\doc2any_cmd\example.doc C:\doc2any_cmd\new.pdf"
    Set comEXEShell = Nothing
%>

2. After you download it, please unzip it to a folder, register exeshell.dll by administrator privilege,

regsvr32.exe exeshell.dll

How to convert PDF file to HPGL file?

Posted on

HPGL is an inintialism for Hewlett-Packard Graphics Language. Just as its name implies, a hpgl file is a graphics file for the HP graphics plotter. However, a pdf file is a document file. How to convert pdf file to hpgl file?  VeryDOC pdf to vector converter ( a software tool) is just what we need. It can transform a pdf file to a number of graphics formats easily in a short time.

Certainly, the first step is that we do need to get one.

There are two websites we can get on to download it.

https://www.verydoc.com/pdf-to-vector.html
https://www.verydoc.com/pdf2vec_cmd.zip

Later, one of the advantages of VeryDOC pdf to vector converter  is that we have not to install it to the computer. We just should uncompress the folder we have downloaded and make sure there exists an .exe file.

The second step is to open this .exe file.

Here, we need to find the label Run and click on it. Usually, the label Run is situated in the unfolded menu of the press button start. This is the popup dialogue box . Enter cmd and Click on Ok. To this step, a command wind is opened.

clip_image007

The last step is to run it.

There are two point we need to realize. The primary point is to ensure that the command line is running under the directory of the .exe file. To be specific, we should change the default directory ( c:\Documents and Settings\admin ) to the location of the .exe file.

Tips: There is an enter operation between the first line and the last line in every window above. The third window indicates that the .exe file is seated in the pdf2vec folder which is one of disc d.

The second point to run the command line “pdf2vec.exe D:\test\test.pdf D:\test\test.hpgl”. Watch out. There are three sections in the line.They are “pdf2vec.exe” which is the executable file, “D:\test\test.pdf” which shows us that “test.pdf” is the executable filename  and its place, and “ D:\test\test.hpgl” is the file we want. Apparently, The name and location of the third can be changed. Look at the windows 4 and 5:

When we get the last window,  the assignment of conversion is done.

Actually, if you want to convert a pdf file to other graphics formats, just change .hpgl of the third part in the fourth window to the format you need. You will get a lot from VeryDOC pdf to vector converter.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused to you, just for checking, please open this PPTX file in MS PowerPoint application, save it to a PDF file by manual, can you work fine by this method?

Also, what version of MS PowerPoint application installed in your system? Is it MS PowerPoint 2010 or MS PowerPoint 2007+PDF&XPS SaveAs addon?

VeryDOC
======================================
Yes, we can save as pdf manually from within Powerpoint. And it's Powerpoint 2010.
=================================
Can you please email to me the sample PPTX file that you are using? After I received your PPTX file, I will test it in my system asap.

I'm using MS PowerPoint 2010 application.

Also, is it possible for you to reinstall MS PowerPoint 2010 to try again? I don't know if something is wrong in your MS PowerPoint 2010, it is great if you can reinstall MS PowerPoint 2010 to try again.

VeryDOC
=================================
We have seen this now with multiple customers. On the server in our lab it converts too, but not reliably.

You didn't run the exact same command we did:

doc2any.exe -$ XXXXXXXXXXXXX -debug -killoffice 1 -noretry -nortfsdk -log "c:\temp\eopconvertdebug.log" -openpwd "q" -ownerpwd "q" -keylen 0 -encryption 3900 "c:\temp\test.pptx" "c:\temp\test.pdf"

Notice how we have -killoffice 1 in there to make sure that Office processes don't build up.

Please try again.
=================================
Did you convert more PPTX documents to PDF files at one time? MS PowerPoint application doesn't support concurrent conversion, so you can only convert more PPTX document to PDF file at one time, please notice this matter.

Also, just for checking, can you convert your PPTX file to PDF file correctly by "-useprinter" parameter?

doc2any.exe -$ XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX -useprinter -debug -killoffice 1 -noretry -nortfsdk -log "c:\temp\eopconvertdebug.log" -openpwd "q" -ownerpwd "q" -keylen 0 -encryption 3900 "c:\temp\test.pptx" "c:\temp\test.pdf"

If you still have same problem, please share your system by teamviewer, I will login your system to research this problem asap.

VeryPDF
=================================
Using -useprinter does not produce good looking output, so not an option. There is only 1 process running at a time.

I will ask if we can go on remote. Will be difficult to arrange, as we sell our software to distributor, who sells to reseller, who sells to customer, so we're not talking with customer directly.
=================================
Thanks for your message, I understand your concern.

Also, I guess -useprinter parameter doesn't work at all, because -useprinter parameter need to load the PPT and PPTX documents too, from the log message, it is indicate MS PowerPoint OLE program interface can not open the PPT and PPTX documents at all, so I think -useprinter parameter will fail to open the PPT and PPTX files too.

MS Office 2010 does add a "File Block" function, I don't know if this setting block you to open the PPT and PPTX documents, you may view or modify File Block settings in the Trust Center, please refer to following web page for more information,
