P3 and PDF

Dear Roger..

I too faced the problem but could sort it out..just try to give print option from p3 main screen rather than giving the print command in print preview screen after connecting ur laptop to the printer.I dont know the logic but its true that it will land u up in success..

Please give me the feed back after trying.

Regards..

Thanks for the information. I recall now that I did have this problem a few years back. I have overcome the problem by using cutewriter which is free software available on the internet. Maybe I will solve the Adobe problem one day when I have nothing better to do.

Adobe Acrobat causes errors with P3 because P3 does not like long directory & file names.

To resolve the problem one needs to go to the Adobe Properties, select the Ports tab, select Add Port and create a new pdf port with a short file name for example C:\P3WIN\OUT.

Hi all

I use a virtual printer installed and printing in to that. Hope you all are talking the same point.

A good one try this.

Paul’s option to convert P3 to Pdf is more appropriate and workable. Try it.

Hello,
I have been using PDFCreator for YEARS, never had a problem.

You can also get pdf995 (freeware) at pdf995.com. It works really well with all Primavera products.

I used pdf995 before switching to pdfcreator; pdf995 adds a comment to printouts when you are using the free version, pdfcreator is a wonderful opensource app, no comments added.
