novaPDF OEM is a PDF solution that can be used by software developers to generate PDF files that will be post-processed by their own applications.
novaPDF OEM works as a normal PDF printer (offers the features of novaPDF Professional) only that the output PDF file is saved to a location set programatically during installation using parameters. More details on how novaPDF OEM works:
- From your program's setup you start the silent installation of novaPDF OEM
- When launching the novaPDF OEM setup you use several command line parameters to: add your application's name (it will be displayed on the About page of the novaPDF driver), set a folder where the PDF will be saved (a temporary folder hidden somewhere), register novaPDF OEM, set the PDF file name (fixed name or you can use macros), where to save the files (locally or remote), choose what to do when the file exists in the destination, choose what application to run after the printing (as well as passing specific arguments for this application)
- After the installation of novaPDF OEM is finished, any document sent to it for printing will be converted to a PDF file and saved in the location you've initially set through parameters
- The PDF will not be shown to the user and only your application will be able to post-process it.
