Download doPDF 7.1 build 347

Softland has released doPDF version 7.1 build 347. This program installs as a printer driver and makes it possible to easily create PDF documents from any program with a print function. The software is free for private and commercial use, does not require Ghostscript to do its job, and does not add any watermark or advertisement. Only in the screen for choosing the location to which the PDF document is to be written, there is an entry to novaPDF. That is a similar program with more extensive options, from the same makers, but it is not free. In this release, the following changes have been made to the program:

doPDF 7.1 build 347

• With previous builds in the property “Title” and “Application” of the PDF file the first Pathname was visible, generating a problem of privacy, as well as the name of the user in the “Author” – these properties were removed so now they ‘re not added anymore
• There’s a big change in the installation of the new build. Until this build, there was a specific doPDF Port Monitor installed along with the doPDF printer. We’ve discovered that this isn’t needed anymore so starting with build 347, the Port Monitor is not installed anymore and a local port is now used instead. Because of this, an empty file with the same name as the port name is created by Windows in the “Documents” folder for the currently logged in user. This file can be deleted, but Windows will create it again at the next print job, its name being DOPDF7 (no file extension, 0 byte file).
