download QlikviewPDF software

Hi, can I find this software anywhere?

I'm trying to build a macro which prints all reports weekly to their own custom.pdf filename but I have used Adobe acrobat and pdf995 software to print software.

I used the PrintreportPDF function with the BypassSaveAs but it keeps asking what filename to save it to. And it automatically says: "Qlikview Printing.pdf" even after specifying the pdfOutputFile.

sub sendReport
tempFolder = "C:\PDF"
Set oReports = ActiveDocument.Fields("reportID").GetPossibleValues
Dim arrReports()
if oReports.Count > 0 then
redim arrReports(oReports.Count)
for i = 0 to oReports.Count -1
reportID = oReports.Item(i).Text
set rep = ActiveDocument.GetReport(reportID)
reportName = rep.Name

reportFile = tempFolder & reportID & "_" & reportName & ".pdf"
arrReports(i) = reportFile
printReportPDF reportID, reportFile

next

else
msgbox ("You must select at least one report")
end if


set fileTest = nothing
end sub



function printReportPDF(oReport, pdfOutputFile)
Set WSHShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WSHShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\QlikViewPDF\OutputFile", pdfOutputFile, "REG_SZ"
WSHShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\QlikViewPDF\BypassSaveAs", "1", "REG_SZ"
'QV Print
ActiveDocument.PrintReport oReport, "QlikviewPDF", false
set WSHShell = nothing
end function

I clearly see "QlikView PDF Writer" as one of the products available for download, both 32 bit and 64 bit versions... It appears in the list of available products right after QlikView OCX.

However, I'm seeing it as a Partner. Maybe, Customers see a slightly different screen? I'm not sure ...

Qlikview PDF Write is avalable in donload section only for customer and partner login . If you do not belongs to eithr one then you are not able to download it.

You should also be aware that the functionality described in the orignal post will no longer work - i.e. the registry key manipulation.

The "QlikView" PDF downloads (v.7.52 and v.9) do not seem to create any keys in the registry that enable you to manipulate the save location or output file name etc.

A possible workaround is to just use something like Cutepdf http://www.cutepdf.com/

I believe you can manipulate the registry keys as required.
