Is using activePDF Server difficult?

A. Not at all. To use activePDF Server, we require only 2 things : 1) Your environment supports COM. Most modern programming languages (e.g. Visual Basic, Active Server Pages, Visual FoxPro) support COM interfaces. 2) Your application that prints resides on the server. activePDF Server is not designed for desktop operation. The product was built with web servers and distributed applications in mind. With those 2 parameters met, using activePDF Server is as easy as calling the StartPrinting method, assigning your printer to an activePDF Server virtual printer and then printing as normal.
