Activity for PDFwriter for Mac

  • Andrew Bialock Andrew Bialock posted a comment on discussion Help

    After installation of the package, only the X86 and X86_64, etc binary is there in the /Library/Printers/Lisanet/PDFwriter folder. I was able to simply compile pdfwriter.c with: "gcc pdfwriter.c" Then move a.out to pdfwriter and copy it over the /Library/Printers/Lisanet/PDFwriter/pdfwriter file. This puts the ARM64 version of the file in place and it works perfectly as expected.

    It should be at "Macintosh HD > Users > Shared > PDF Writer > Your user name" I'm looking for a way to change it, any ideas?

    I tried the fork from rodyager on Github which is based on this project. It installs properly on macOS Catalina. Thus I would recommend using RWTS-PDFwriter which automatically adds the printer without requiring user configuration. It worked OOB. Google: github rodyager RWTS-PDFwriter

    Hi all, I have installed the driver successfully, and when printing using the sytem dialog, it works well. However, when I print by dragging a file into the PDFwriter window (from System Preferences/Printers), it prints each page upside down. Has anyone found a way to resolve this? Thanks, Doni

    If you try to install this per the instructions, you might end up with PDFs that are zero bytes. You can fix this, as noted by several reviewers. For example: macgoofy82 Posted 01/04/2017 works for Mac OS El Capitan (10.11.6 ). As mentioned by mitcboo, "when adding the printer in preferences, instead of using the Generic Postscript Printer pick Other.. and navigate to /Library/Printers/Lisanet/PDFwriter/pdfwriter.ppd" The output is then generated with files bigger than 0 Bytes in following directory:...

    I haven't been able to get PDFwriter to work since I had my logicboard replaced and had to reinstall everything. It gives me a 'successfully installed' message, but when I go to add the printer, it defaults to Generic Postscript. So I choose 'Other' and navigate to the printers folder in my library, but only my Brother printer appears - no folder for Lisanet. It also didn't appear when I ran a search in Finder and when I ran the uninstall script, it didn't find it. How can I get this ppd file? I'm...

    Is there any way to configure PDFwriter to output files and sequence them with the current date and time? Instead of: job_123 Filename.pdf Something like: Filename_20180104-102715.pdf This would be more useful to us for our application... Can this be configured? Or added in future update?
