Sergey - which version of xfrx are you now using? I haven't updated to the last several versions as things are working quite well and I prefer to leave a sleep dog lie. If you are staying up with the current versions have you noticed an improvement in the pdf file creation times as that is mainly what I use it for.

Sorry don't mean to hijack the thread, but I know you have using xfrx for some time and I need a good reason to consider using the latest version as I have already paid for it. Increased file creation time would certainly be a benefit.


Thanks
Gaylen

>>I'm not sure I have a choice here. I recall I first create a temp text file, then use this file to convert to PDF, not directly from a text string. Lots of extra steps... I questioned today the validity of storing memo as PDF and got these answers:
>>
>>1) We store memo as PDF because we're going to purge Stage tables ~ each six months and we don't want to keep them in our main tables to save space
>>2) We're using PDF because lots of other things are also stored as PDF...
