Error Reading PDF

[arturo_lopesoria]

Hola a Todos / Hello All

Estoy intentando leer PDF con el ejemplo DEMO/ACTIVEX.7
Mi primer intento el ejemplo no trabajo. Tuve que cambiar los paths:

Code: Select all

   Win1.Test.Object:src := "c:\hmg\samples\activex\readme.pdf"

Por este otro:

Code: Select all

   Win1.Test.Object:src := "c:\hmg.3.0.25\samples\activex.7\readme.pdf"

Pero ahora tengo este mensaje:
" File does not begin with %pdf "
Luego de eso se muestra una pantalla como si Readme.PDF estuviera en balnco.

Alguna Idea?
Gracas. Saludos

It is working fine here. You must only use the correct full path.

It depends on the location of your HMG installation.

Please, try this modified sample:

Thanks Roberto.
I put your code with dinamic full-path consideration, but Problem Persist:

Message :
File does not begin with '%PDF-'.
then the empty screen.
I thing.. probably problem is PDF reader version instaled on my win-wp?

One more Question: What exatly means PROGID "AcroPDF.PDF.1" ? Do It depends on something like a PDF Reader version installed on my Windows System?

...
Do It depends on something like a PDF Reader version installed on my Windows System?
