The customer reported an issue with the SEDraftToPDF translator in their production environment. When using the translator, only the first page of the Draft document was being translated into PDF format. The customer needed to generate multiple pages with dispatcher translation but couldn't find any preference or information about it in the SEEC Administrators Guide.
SolutionThis can be resolved in either of two ways:
1. Use the Solid Edge UI desktop session:
- The SEDftToPDF translator uses the PDF export options defined through the Solid Edge UI desktop session.
- Set the desired PDF export settings using the Solid Edge UI.
2. Set PDF export settings manually through the registry:
- Open the registry editor.
- Navigate to Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Siemens\Solid Edge\Version xx\Global.
- Look for registry keys beginning with the name "PDF_".
- Change the value of the registry key "PDF_PRINT_ALL_SHEETS" to 2.
Please note that making changes to the registry should be done with caution, and it is recommended to back up the registry before making any modifications.
Using either method will allow the dispatcher to print all pages of the draft file.
