Category:

Miscellaneous

Policy Name:

Allow use of the ReOpen function (atomic file reopen)

Requirements:

PDF-XChange Editor v7.0.323 or later.

Description:

The ReOpen function allows changes to access levels for an open file from 'for reading' to 'for writing' and vice versa without closing and reopening the file. Please note that some file systems do not implement this function correctly. Disable this option to prevent the use of the ReOpen function and instead use the CreateFile/CloseHandle pair of functions.

Reg Key Location:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Tracker Software\PDFXEditor\3.0\Misc

Reg Key Name:

b.AllowUseReOpen

Registry Key Type:

REG_DWORD

Available Values:

“1” – enabled, “0” – disabled

 

Examples: "Enabled" or "Not Configured" allows PDF-XChange Editor to use the ReOpen function. Set to "0 -Disabled" to force PDF-XChange Editor to use the CreateFile/CloseHandle pair of functions instead.

Policy Name:

Default Paper Size

Requirements:

PDF-XChange Editor v7.0.325 or later.

Description:

Specifies the default page size for creating/editing documents.

Reg Key Location:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Tracker Software\PDFXEditor\3.0\Misc

Reg Key Name:

i.DefPaperIndex

Registry Key Type:

REG_DWORD

Available Values:

Auto (Regional), A4, Letter/ANSI A, US Legal, A3, Tabloid/ANSI B, ANSI_C, ANSI_D, ANSI_E, ANSI_F.

 

Examples: "Enabled" sets the default paper size to the value selected from the drop down list. "Disabled" or "not configured" reverts to "Auto (Regional)" or, if a user has modified it since installation, to the current user settings.

 

Please note:

 

Auto (Regional) will default to A4 for all locations except the US and Canada, which will default to Letter/ANSI.

The dropdown list is hard-coded in PDF-XChange Editor and cannot be modified by users or administrators. If you have a requirement for a default paper size that is not in the list then please email support@pdf-xchange.com and request your desired default paper size to be added - we will consider all reasonable requests.
