What's new in Raster Image Printer 9.0.013

• Improved performance of printing lots of small documents in a row.
• Improved performance of text extraction.
• Fixed issue with COM API reporting jobs not completed when no jobs in print queue, introduced by Windows 7 and Windows 2008 SP1.

What's new in Raster Image Printer 9.0.012

• New feature added to support rendering pages at resolution of printer when in Fax Mode. This feature is enabled by default. It solves the problem of Excel documents creating more pages when forced to rendered document at Fax resolution (200 dpi) as was default in prior releases
• Enhanced support of paper selection based on paper width and height. A few products do not always select paper type (Letter, A4, etc.) but instead only use the width and height of the paper. Product now matches postscript printer driver behaviour for this situation
• For PNSrv9 COM users, improved speed of creating printer pool, enhanced clean-up of ports and printers to ensure all registry keys removed

What's New in Raster Image Printer 9.0.011

Support added for:

• Windows 7 (SP1)
• Internet Explorer 9.0
• Adobe Acrobat and Reader X (10.0.xx)

New features and fixes:

• New feature added to allow creation of PDF/A-1b standard complaint files when created PDF documents.
• New feature added to support saving sent messages in the sent folder when using extended MAPI.
• Resolved issue with memory leak in spooler (spoolsv.exe) process.

What's New in Raster Image Printer 9.0.010

• Resolves issues in the PNSrv9 COM Interface where the SetTIFFCompressionOptions method did not correctly configure compression to JPEG in TIFF when called with any of the JPEG compression options as follows:
  pnColorCompressionMethod.pnColorCompressionJPEG[High|Medium|Low]Quality
  pnIndexedCompressionMethod.pnIndexedCompressionJPEG[High|Medium|Low]Quality
  pnGreyscaleCompressionMethod.pnGreyscaleCompressionJPEG[High|Medium|Low]Quality
  which resulted in only LZW compressed images instead of JPEG compressed images in TIFF files.

What's New in Raster Image Printer 9.0.009

• Resolved conversion performance/speed issue found on computers with no internet access.

What's New in Raster Image Printer 9.0.008

• Added feature to allow enabling Fax Mode to use a full 256 greyscale palette when dithering to black and white. The default is still to use a 64 greyscale palette to reduce size of fax and eliminate low intensity colors used normally to shape areas.
• Added feature to allow setting the Control String prefix and suffix to a single unicode character value. By using this feature, products like Crystal Reports 11 and Adobe Reader can be configured so the product recognizes control strings. The default prefix of '~0%' and suffix '?' are used if this feature is not in affect.
• Fixed an issue in the [TIFF File Format] section of the config C.INI file and the script S.INI file. The keywords for the Color Compression and Greyscale Compression entries:
  
  
  • High quality JPEG
  • Medium quality JPEG
  • Low quality JPEG
  
  were not being recognized.

What's New in Raster Image Printer 9.0.007

• Resolved a multi-thread issue causing trial watermark to appear randomly on output when printer used in highly threaded application on computers with more then 4 CPUs.

What's New in Raster Image Printer 9.0.006

• Resolved another issue with paper sizes off by 1 pixel when user paper size specified instead of form name.

What's New in Raster Image Printer 9.0.005

• Resolved issues in Fax Mode with paper sizes off by 1 pixel.
• Added support to detect pre-rotated forms like 'A4 Rotated', so operation like rotated landscape pages will be applied correctly to these paper sizes.
• Enhanced watermark brightness to allow full range from -100 to 100 for improved control.
• Resolved issues with PrintRange, SkipPage, and watermark control strings.
• Resolved issue with $copies variable not reporting correct number of copies selected during print operation.

What's New in Raster Image Printer 9.0.004

• Fixed spooled page count for PNSrv9 COM users on Windows 2008 systems.

What's New in Raster Image Printer 9.0.003

• Fixed auto selecting of paper size in fax mode to when paper is printed landscape.

What's New in Raster Image Printer 9.0.002

• Added new feature to support auto selecting of paper size in fax mode based on first page of document.

What's New in Raster Image Printer 9.0.001
Raster Image Printer 9.0 has been upgraded and enhanced to unify the driver with PEERNET's family of image printer drivers, TIFF Image Printer and PDF Image Printer. All drivers now share the same user interface, options and most features as applicable.

Technical Enhancements Include:
Improved the performance of the printer driver to take advantage of parallel processing capabilities on multi-core machines.

Custom paper size improved, major improvement for those working with large paper or rotated paper sizes such as AutoCad users.

• Removed the need to use the named paper size Custom Size; custom paper sizes can now be set directly through the Advanced Features tab without changing the paper size set on the printer driver's Layout tab.
• Can now create custom paper sizes larger than 54x54inches.
• Units for custom paper size are now entered as inches (English units) or centimeters (Metric units)

Added the ability to create faxable images:

• Supports creating Profile F and Profile S monochrome fax images, and Profile C color fax images.
• Fax images can be created in Letter, Legal, A4(ISO), A3(ISO) and B4(ISO) paper sizes.
• Customize fax image scaling and its alignment on the fax-sized page.
• Supports the following fax resolutions: 100 x 100, 200 x 100, 200 x 200, 204 x 98, 204 x 196, 300 x 300, 400 x 400, 408 x 391, 204 x 391, 300 x 600, 400 x 800, 600 x 600, 600 x 1200, 1200 x 1200.
• A reduced fax mode palette is used when creating Profile F and Profile S fax images.

Added the ability to set PDF security options:

• 40-bit/128-bit encryption.
• Customize user permissions on the created PDF, such as copying text and graphics, printing or changing the document and adding or changing comments and form fields.
• Set passwords for opening or changing the PDF.

File type, compression and color reduction options on the File tab have been moved to the Save tab and have been simplified to make it easier to select the output file type. The Compression options are now on their own tab, making it easier to select compression settings for individual file types.

New Color Reduction options have been added to give greater control over the output files:

• Reduce to 256 color palette will reduce each page to a maximum of 256 colors.
• Reduce to 16 color palette will reduce each page to a maximum of 16 colors.
• Reduce to optimal palette, 256 colors max will reduce each page to its minimum number of colors with a maximum of 256 colors.
• Reduce to optimal palette, 16 colors max will reduce each page to its minimum number of colors with a maximum of 16 colors.

Added the following enhancements to page and image processing:

• Added Trim feature that can automatically trim page margins based on a customizable intensity level.
• Crop had been enhanced to include the ability to:
• • crop and discard image margins
  • crop and keep an inside area of the image
• Image Brightness Level allow you to lighten or darken the image or text.
• Copy To has been enhanced to include the ability to:
• • copy all or part of the image to a new page of the same or different size, including margin settings.
  • choose scaling and alignment of the new image.
• Units are now entered as inches (English units) or centimeters (Metric units).

New image resampling features replace the older Scale output to DPI and allows:

• Scaling the output image to a particular width and height.
• Setting the new dimensions can be set using Pixels, as a Percentage of the original size, or by setting a new image resolution (DPI).

All printing is processed synchronously with the print job in the print spooler. The print job is held in the print queue until the file is created and is ready for further processing. This is different from the previous versions of the driver and should simplify the automation process for application developers who are watching the printer queue to determine when the file is created.

Control Strings can now be enabled or disabled. Control Strings are disabled when Raster Image Printer 9.0 is installed.

Added the ability to extract text from the printed documents; new Text Extraction features include:

• text layout options to better preserve the formatting of the text in the original document
• Text extraction files encoded as ANSII, UTF-8 or UTF-16
• Emulate Windows, Unix or Mac end-of-line encoding
• Emit page breaks in the text file

Includes PNSrv9 COM Interface
The PNSrv9 COM Interface was designed to make it easier for you, the developer, to programmatically control the Raster Image Printer through your .NET applications by providing the ability to control and communicate with the Raster Image Printer 9.0 during the printing and file creation process. It replaces and greatly enhances the older script file methodology used in the previous versions of the printer.

The Raster Image Printer makes converting documents to 26 industry-standard raster image file formats, like JPEG, PDF, TIFF, GIF, and PNG, easy.

After converting documents into image files, you can share, archive or (automatically) attach them to email messages as virus-free attachments.

Unlike competing products that offer a multitude of obscure and obsolete file formats, this virtual printer specializes in producing the exact image you require (be it JPEG, PDF, TIFF, GIF, PNG, or any other) through it’s customizable image-specific properties not found in competing products.

Easy as 1-2-3
1. Start your application and open the document you want to convert.
2. Print your document by selecting Raster Image Printer 7.0 from the list of available printers.
3. When prompted, select where to save the image file, choose the file type and you're done.

It's that easy; if you can print it, you can convert it to JPEG, PDF, TIFF, GIF, PNG, and more.

Why use the Raster Image Printer?

• Convert to any supported image format from any Windows application, including proprietary, in-house applications built for Windows
• Combine multiple different documents into a single multi-paged TIFF file quickly and easily with this image writer
• Extensive customizable image options, including compression, color, resolution, and paper size, allow you to create the exact file format you require. Just set the printer properties once and forget about them
• Saves time by streamlining document workflow – easily attach your own processing logic before and after file creation
• Fully customizable file naming ability allows you to specify where the file is saved and how it is named
• Automatically email documents simply by printing them to the image printer
• Integrating the driver with your solution does not require any special API or developer kit. Everything you need is already included with the product

What can I do with the Raster Image Printer?

Complete control over the file size and image quality of the raster image files created.
The image printer is configured to produce good quality pictures upon install, but there are times when you need to control the size of the file or the quality of the image produced. Increase the printer’s resolution (to a maximum of 600 DPI) to increase the quality of the image, or lower the resolution (to a minimum of 50 DPI) to create a smaller sized image.

Save space with automatic color options – the fewer the colors, the smaller the file.
The image printer takes the guesswork out of selecting the color mode the image is stored in when performing convert to JPEG, PDF, TIFF to name a few. Without affecting the image quality, the virtual printer can automatically reduce your document image to the fewest number of colors possible. This option is easily changed if you always need true color, greyscale or monochrome images.

Customize the image file format options to get the exact file you need, every time.
For certain types of applications, such as archival, fax, or proprietary systems, the type of image file that needs to be used is restricted in format and compression type, and will be rejected if it does not match. Raster Image Printer provides the ability for you to specify the image format and compression that must be generated in order to guarantee these files will be accepted by these systems every time.

Advanced file naming convention
If your files need to follow a specific naming convention or be stored in a certain location, the PEERNET Multi-Format Image Printer advanced file naming ability can be easily configured to meet your needs – be it for an archival, fax or other proprietary systems.

Ultimate control and tight integration with your workflow process.
To streamline or automate any process, the PEERNET raster driver provides several points in its file creation process that allows you to attach your own processing logic that will run or be invoked before or after the creation of your raster image file(s).
