Reading PCL files: Error -403

Hi there

We have Document Imaging, plus PDF Read and Write, all in version 15.
While trying to open a PCL file, I get the following error:
-403: Vector Misc Capabilities required to...

Does that mean we need to buy an add-in? Which one?

To be able to load or save vector formats, such as PCL, DXF and SVG, you must own a LEADTOOLS Vector Imaging Pro toolkit.

If you use the 'nag' edition of our LTKRN15u.DLL, you will be able to try vector formats, because the nag kernel unlocks all features including vector. However, if you want to add vector support to your actual application, you must contact our sales department to purchase the toolkit.

Hi there

I had a look at the documentation. For vector file format there are specific functions, such as L_VecLoadFile. But as raster image tools support multipage, the vector images module seems not to support it. Am I right? We will be able to display single page PCL but not multipage?

Our vector toolkit does not support loading multi-page Vector files.

If you would like to ask our engineers to add a feature for loading multi-page files to our Vector toolkit, you can submit a feature request using the following web page:

http://www.leadtools.com/DevServices/Feature-Request.htm

If you do that, please provide as much information about the requirements you have

Hi again!

I'm about to fill a feature request but one more question before this:
I have an example of pcl file. When I open it with another tool (PCLTool, The file is ok. When I open it with the Leadtools demo program ( Vector Imaging pro / API / 01 Main Vector 32-bit Demo ), there are 2 frames that are not correctly positionned / sized / filled. And a column title containing 3 words ( 'Valeurs de référence' ), each word is printed on top of the other.
Is there a way to get a better rendering ?

I join exemple files, one is the original PCL file I wish to render with Leadtools, the other is this pcl file converted to PDF using PCLTool.

I have checked the PCL file and I saw the difference you are referring to. I am also attaching a scanned page in a ZIP file that shows how the image looks when dumped to a PCL laser printer. I reported this to our engineers. If you would like to ask about this incident in the future, please refer to this number 6248AMN.

Ok, thank you. I submitted my feature request, and made a link with this incident. And ok, I understand the PCL standard seems quite permissive and we are not expecting your product to match exactly what our customers get with their own tool. But if you can come closer to an HL laser printer rendering, we would be satisfied.

Cheers!
