Reteset,

Great plugin, thank you. One question though, have you thought about using SumatraPDF instead of Adobe PDF Reader? The reason I ask is that it seem like you could use SumatraPDF and not have any external dependencies. I use SamatraPDF now in some of my apps and it runs directly from the CD and does not require an install. Just a thought, I am not sure if it could be done or not because I know nothing about designing plugins.

hey.. good
i can not test it for now but i think it is open source
maybe i can make a plugin from it but i can not figure out that site
which i found on google if you find full source of that (because i am very busy )
i can make a plugin,

and also can you read licence of that for me because licence files
very complex for me , my english does not very well

if licence allows to make our free plugin
and if it is possible to make a plugin from sources then
i can make a plugin ,it is a pleasure , because i need it too

reteset, new version of the plugin pass error message after exiting from runtime on WinXP SP3. Previous version work normally.

this is same plugin , i did not chage a part of plugin
i only added new 4 functions and help file

i have checked plugin for that problem before
i could not find a problem in plugin because
there is no special implementation in this plugin
it just creates activex with CWnd::Create(..)
and destroys with CWnd:: DestroyWindow(...)
those are generic MFC functions

i am sure , the causal of this problem is Adobe Reader ActiveX (ver:7)
can i ask . which version of reader did you use

i never got an error with reader 8
i will make a deepest test again
thank you for your interest

Work nice in Adobe 8.0 on XP SP2

Hey reteset, i used your previous PDF plugin, and i tried to download this one, but http://www.amsplugins.com/ is down:P

I got an answer from the developer of Sumatra PDF. Here is what he had to say:

First, I'm not a lawyer. But here's how I believe things work: if the plugin just launches SumatraPDF.exe, then it's ok.

If Sumatra's code is incorporated into plugin itself, then it would violate GPL.

A more detailed answer from the definitive source is here:

I think that you can still use the source code, but then you would have to release the plugin as GPLv2. When I use this program, I use it like the developer said in the first part of his reply. I just use a button object that uses a command line arguement to open the document directly in Sumatra PDF like this:

File.Run("AutoPlay\\PDF\\SumatraPDF.exe", "AutoPlay\\DOCS\\Animals.pdf", "", SW_SHOWNORMAL, false);

I then just add a folder called "PDF" and it inludes two files in it called SumatraPDF.exe and sumatrapdfprefs.dat.

You can get the source files from:http://code.google.com/p/sumatrapdf/

I hope this helps.

Thanks, Dorian

does anyone else got same error (crash on exit)
if so please write here

because i will try different way to make a PDF viewer

as well as i can not make a plugin from Sumatra
because it will be a licence violation as dflowers mentioned above
thank you dflowers for this info
