| ashish | Hi, I am having issue running gs cli. | 09:11.12 |
| | https://www.ghostscript.com/doc/9.26/Devices.htm#Win | 09:11.17 |
| | I want to change DocumentName but didn't understand How ? using cli | 09:11.44 |
| | gswin64c.exe "D:\setup.ps" -o "D:/test.pdf" "C:\Users\ashish\Documents\tt.pdf" | 09:12.42 |
| | I tired this | 09:12.45 |
| chrisl | ashish: You're going to have to use the pdfwrite device https://www.ghostscript.com/doc/9.52/VectorDevices.htm#PDFWRITE | 09:18.28 |
| ashish | It seem to work with pdf only. I have requirement to print pdfs on real printer too. | 09:23.04 |
| chrisl | I don't understand, you said you wanted to change the DocumentName, that's PDF metadata | 09:25.40 |
| ashish | https://prnt.sc/tcmg8u | 09:31.49 |
| | In printing spool it shows "Ghostscript output" | 09:32.06 |
| chrisl | Well, that's what it's printing.... seems fair | 09:32.32 |
| ashish | Primary requirement is to change it something dynamic string | 09:32.35 |
| | So can we change this documentName ? | 09:33.07 |
| chrisl | It shows you how in the documentation you linked to above | 09:33.26 |
| ashish | In documentation it state that we can using | 09:34.49 |
| | mark | 09:34.50 |
| | % select the Windows device driver | 09:34.52 |
| | I am not expert in it but basic knowledge about GS | 09:35.14 |
| chrisl | I assume your setup.ps contains at least some of those settings | 09:40.33 |
| kens | If I recall correctly, you cannot change the text being displayed by the print spooler without recompiling Ghostscript. I don't think that's unreasonmable | 09:55.34 |
| | Why do you have a requirement to change it ashish ? | 09:55.56 |
| ashish | HI Kens, we have an application that manages document print. Sometime document fail to print at printer. To identify it easily we are planning to use some meaning full document name so user can easily identify which docuemtn print failed and which not | 09:59.30 |
| kens | OK so you are using Ghostscript (and presumably the mswinpr2 device) to print the files ? | 10:00.26 |
| ashish | Yes am using mswinpr2 | 10:00.43 |
| kens | How does Ghostscript from part of your application ? | 10:00.47 |
| | s/from/formk/ | 10:00.56 |
| ashish | am not getting your question ? | 10:01.23 |
| kens | You say your application 'manages document print' | 10:01.37 |
| | And yet its Ghostscript that does the printing | 10:01.48 |
| | So how is Ghostscript part pf your application ? Are you distributing Ghostscript as part of your application ? | 10:02.07 |
| ashish | Yes its part of my application.exe. I used a c# wrapper that uses gs.dll | 10:02.46 |
| | gsdll64.dll | 10:03.10 |
| | Right now we are in development stage | 10:03.20 |
| kens | Well then you are going to need a license for Ghostscript | 10:03.56 |
| | I believe Artifex will consider your linking against the DLL via a C# wrapper as a derrivative work | 10:04.21 |
| | Which means you need a commercial license | 10:04.26 |
| ashish | Ok but right now I am build a POC | 10:04.34 |
| kens | Well then you can look at the Ghostscript source code. The mswinpr2 device can be modified to display something different. | 10:04.58 |
| ashish | if gs works for our application we will definitely buy licence. | 10:05.12 |
| | Can you provide me url ? | 10:06.00 |
| kens | URL for what ? | 10:06.11 |
| ashish | for source code | 10:06.39 |
| kens | Its open source, you go to ghostscript.com and follow the links | 10:06.52 |
| | Or google | 10:06.56 |
| ashish | Ok | 10:07.30 |
| kens | We will often provide support for evaluators, so once someone has talked to the commercial people ask them to forward your question | 10:08.04 |
| ashish | ok | 10:10.04 |
| sebras | pool38: are you the pool14 from before that asked me questions about ghostscript? | 18:52.34 |
| | pool38: if so you asked "does ghostscript make my desktop inkjet printer print PostScript files?" | 18:53.04 |
| pool38 | ye | 18:53.22 |
| | yes | 18:53.27 |
| sebras | pool38: even if I contribute to ghostscript I'm a main ghostscript developer. :) | 18:53.47 |
| pool38 | But I want you just how | 18:53.49 |
| | file COPYING for details. | 18:53.49 |
| sebras | pool38: it is better to ask the question here so the ghostscript developers see your questions. | 18:55.19 |
| Robin_Watts | Hi evrhel. | 19:13.04 |
| | I'm going to open a private tab to talk to you. | 19:13.21 |
| HenryStiles | this is the part where Robin_Watts tells evrhel to ignore the rest of us. | 19:18.50 |
| Robin_Watts | HenryStiles: I didn't want to spell out the secret incantations in public :) | 19:32.24 |
| mona86 | Hello | 20:46.17 |
| ghostbot | Welcome to #ghostscript. If you have a question, please ask it, don't ask to ask it. Do be prepared to wait for a reply as devs will check the logs and reply when they come on line. If you are looking for help or infomation about MuPDF, try the new #mupdf channel. | 20:46.17 |
| mona86 | I want someone to explain this to me | 20:47.22 |
| sebras | mona86: you need to tell us what you want to explain. | 21:00.08 |
| | mona86: also, please note that that the developers are in european/us timezones so you may have to wait for a while to get an answer. | 21:00.41 |
| mona86 | I installed Ghostscript and GSview and made a PostScript file and upon printing it does not print | 21:03.19 |
| | An error appears | 21:03.39 |
