Hi all, I use AddIn translator from Inventor (via VBA macro) to translate idw to pdf and I have problems with appearance of barcodes (3 to 9)- see attached file : bad result.pdf . In resulting pdf gaps are bigger and font size smaller.
If I use a"common" pdf printer (e.g. CutePDF Writer ) problem is gone - see attached file :good result.pdf
I guess you have to use CutePDF. We have had to switch to it recently as 2014 does not print our company logo to PDF using the builtin PDF printer.

No, I wasn't aware, thanks. Of course since they changed the website it's just about impossible to find anything. I can't find this hotfix if I look on the website myself, lol. According to the website the last 2014 hotfix was released on may 5th.

Hers the hotfix file in zip format, with both 32 and 64 bit versions
============== Inventor 2023 Pro HP Z420 workstation Xeon 3.7Ghz CPU 8 Cores, 64 GB Ram 64bit (The Garbage known as) Windows 10 Pro AMD FirePro V3900 (ATI FireGL) (1GB RAM) ================= Ashington Northumberland (UK) ~ Home to the WORLD FAMOUS Pitman Painters Group
Thanks for that. The link worked from the previous post I was just saying that if I go to the website and I look at the list of hotfixes this one doesn't show up. The new site is terrible for finding service packs and hotfixes.

I think this is mainly a conversion / dpi thing... At how many dpi are you making the pdf? Is there a way to edit the settings in the addin you mention? If you print with "cutepdf" what are the settings, mainly for downsampling? It might be the barcode is not being recognized as a proper font. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=barcode+font+in+pdf
