Hi I am using PowerBuilder 12.5 Build 5583 on Windows 7 64 Bit. I want to whatsapp invoices to sales parties. Its a bulk messenger job. I am using clawPDF to convert to image (JPG) file. It create file with some default name. I want mobile no as image file eg 983XXXXXXX.jpg to some particular location. Let say today I have 25 invoices I need 12 JPG files with there respective mobile no.

Is there any small free ware printer drive to print as image file.

Hi Prashant;

For converting any PDF to a JPG (or any image format), I use the free & open source tool called ImageMagick...

Yes, I'm afraid so. You can save the DWO to the old EMF image format. I wish though that the SaveAs() method was updated to also support the JPG & PNG image types as well.
