myFMbutler PrinterSwitch 2.0.2

Manage printers & PDF's from within your FileMaker® Pro solution
PrinterSwitch is a FileMaker® Pro 11 (or 10/9) plug-in for Windows and Macintosh that allows you to easily control printer switching from within your FileMaker solutions. Moreover, PrinterSwitch also allows automatic PDF creation from within FileMaker without the need for a 3rd party PDF printer driver. The name and destination of the PDF can both be set from within your solution.

What's new in version 2.0 ?
• Now fully compatible with FileMaker Pro 11
• [Mac OS X only] Added Capture / Restore functionality for page orientation, paper size and paper source - this feature was already available in the Windows version
• [Windows only] Integrated version 4 of the Amyuni PDF driver for compatibility with Windows 7 and improved compatibility with Windows Vista (both 32-bit and 64-bit versions)
• Added PrSw_VersionAutoUpdate function for use with FMS Autoupdate
• Changed installer so the plug-in is automatically installed in the FMS AutoUpdate location


Features
• switch printers on the fly from within your FileMaker application
• send dynamic FileMaker output to PDF, using the filename and location of your choice
• select any printer driver that is installed on your system
• capture printer settings like page orientation, paper size etc. and restore them at the time of printing.


Benefits
• on MacOS X, does not require the use of AppleScript or Printer Setup, and does not affect the status of your default printer
• on Windows, a PDF printer driver is part of our PrinterSwitch plug-in package, so the purchase of a separate driver is not needed (on MacOS X, this functionality is built into the OS)
• printer selection can easily be implemented in your application on a per user basis, or e.g. per department or office
• PDF functionality also works in FileMaker runtime solutions


System Requirements
• FileMaker Pro 11 (also supports 10 and 9)
