PdfScribe is a PDF virtual printer. Check the releases page for this project to download a prebuilt MSI package.

• 64-bit Windows Vista or later
• .NET Framework 4.0 or later

Visual Studio 2015, Wix 3.11, and Votive 2015 are required to build PdfScribe.

PdfScribe links to, and distributes the following third party components:

• Microsoft Postscript Printer Driver (V3)
• Ghostscript (64-bit)
• Redmon 1.9 (64-bit)

Ghostscript and Redmon are distributed under LGPL v3, so PdfScribe is bound by that license.

In the application config file (PdfScribe.exe.config), there are two settings in the "applicationSettings" element:

• AskUserForOutputFilename - set value to true if you want PdfScribe to ask the user where to save the PDF.
• OutputFile - if there is a constant filename you want the PDF to be saved to, set its value here. Environment variables can be used. PdfScribe will overwrite each time. This setting is ignored if AskUserForOutputFilename is set to true.

• Add more page sizes (currently only US Letter is supported)
• Allow auto-generated filenames with sequence numbers if the user doesn't want to overwrite (ex: OUTPUT-001.PDF, OUTPUT-002.PDF, etc)
• Allow file appending if OutputFile setting is used.
• GUI for configuration
• Watermarking output
