PaperClips doesn't work with PrimoPDF

[Gamby]

Hi all,
I've tried PaperClips today for first time and I'm already here to submit you a question...
As virtual pdf printer I'm using PrimoPDF (http://www.primopdf.com/) but prints sent using PaperClips (I tried official examples) aren't printed....
In fact, the job remains in queue for a indefinite time...

Only in one occasion, PrimoPDF showed me its dialog where you can select file name and other things, but this was happened after about 20 minutes since the execution of java example main...

In your opinion, is it possible that all that time must occur for pdf creation? I've ever seen such a slowness...

I'll try also with PDFCreator...in the meanwhile could someone try also with PrimoPDF, use HelloWorld example...

Thanks in advance, best regards
Raffaele

A few questions:
1) What operating system are you running this on?
2) Can you provide a standalone .java file demonstrating the problem?

Also, have you tried, PDF-Creator?  I have never had a problem with that one.

1) Windows XP
2) Install PrimoPDF then run your HelloWorld example

I tried also with http://www.verypdf.com/artprint/ and with this it seems working ok and speedily...

For me it isn't a problem which virtual pdf printer to use....it is only a curiosity about PrimoPDF...

Thanks for answers, best regards
Raffaele

Running TutorialExample1.java, I am able to print to PDF-Creator as well as to my physical printer.  I strongly suspect something is wrong with PrimoPDF.  Have you tried printing to a different printer?
