Hello Folks

I have a VB.net code which exports the document to the pdf on the fly and send to the printer to print, however I am having problems in printing as the printer guy said that the fonts not being embedded into PDF I am exporting.

I have been advised to use a adobe distiller to do some settings before exporting to the PDF manually. However because I am doing this on the fly, I think I would have to incorporate distiller/word settings in the code.

I hope this makes sense?

Please can someone advise?

Thanks

Try
MSdoc = New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.ApplicationClass()
MSdoc.Visible = False
MSdoc.Documents.Open(tempFile, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown)
MSdoc.Application.Visible = False
MSdoc.WindowState = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdWindowState.wdWindowStateMinimize
Dim format As Object = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdSaveFormat.wdFormatPDF
Const wrdFormatDocument = 0
MSdoc.ActiveDocument.SaveAs(dstFile, format, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, True, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown, Unknown)
Catch ex As Exception
Throw ex
CommonFunctions.SendErrorEmail("Unable to export the template to the PDF. Filename :" & dstFile, ex.ToString)
Finally
