Hi Andrus,

As I said before, FoxyPreviewer is not YET meant to work embedded in the EXE.
Have a look at FoxyPreviewer.Prg, look for the string "LIBHPDF", and apply the fixes you need. That simple !
Then, tell me how you fixed it, and I will be happy to update FoxyPreviewer.

In the future, I'll see what can be done to change this.

>For 100 users, 100 copies are created.

Hey...
Are your users calling the EXE from the Server ? Don't they have a local version of the EXE in their machines ?
I recommend having a copy of FoxyPreviewer locally, to make things run faster.
