Hallo,

I can not change (with c++) the global settings "UseTempProfiles" and "ShowSelectProfileDialog". Other options are working fine. I always use the same profil. Should I delete it first?

Thanks in advance

I am using SDK 7 with te following code:
...
if (SUCCEEDED(hr)) {
pNova->StartUpdateProfiles();
pNova->AddProfile(PROFILE_NAME, PROFILE_IS_PUBLIC);
pNova->SetOptionString(NOVAPDF_SAVE_FOLDER, pdfPath, PROFILE_NAME, PROFILE_IS_PUBLIC);
pNova->SetOptionString(NOVAPDF_SAVE_FILE, pdfFile, PROFILE_NAME, PROFILE_IS_PUBLIC);
pNova->SetOptionLong(NOVAPDF_USE_TEMP_PROFILES, 1, PROFILE_NAME, PROFILE_IS_PUBLIC);
pNova->SetOptionLong(NOVAPDF_SAVE_CONFLICT_STRATEGY, FILE_CONFLICT_STRATEGY_OVERWRITE, PROFILE_NAME, PROFILE_IS_PUBLIC);
pNova->SetOptionLong(NOVAPDF_SHOW_SELECT_PROFILE, 0, PROFILE_NAME, PROFILE_IS_PUBLIC);
pNova->SetOptionLong(NOVAPDF_SAVE_PROMPT, 0, PROFILE_NAME, PROFILE_IS_PUBLIC);
pNova->EndUpdateProfiles();
pNova->SetActiveProfile(PROFILE_NAME, PROFILE_IS_PUBLIC);
} else {
MessageBox(NULL, L"Failed to initialize novaPDF Printer", L"novaPDF", MB_OK);
}

Hi sebas,
These two options are not included in profile options, they are global options for the printer. So you have to use the "SetPrinterOption" function to set these options.

Hello,

I've changed to "setPrinterOptions" and the Options are set correctly, but I receive te message, that my current profile can be read. If I comment the "setPrinterOPtion" all works well again.

...
pNova->SetPrinterOption(NOVAPDF_USE_TEMP_PROFILES, 0);
pNova->SetPrinterOption(NOVAPDF_SHOW_SELECT_PROFILE, 0);

pNova->StartUpdateProfiles();
pNova->AddProfile(PROFILE_NAME, PROFILE_IS_PUBLIC);
pNova->SetOptionString(NOVAPDF_SAVE_FOLDER, pdfPath, PROFILE_NAME, PROFILE_IS_PUBLIC);
pNova->SetOptionString(NOVAPDF_SAVE_FILE, pdfFile, PROFILE_NAME, PROFILE_IS_PUBLIC);
pNova->SetOptionLong(NOVAPDF_SAVE_CONFLICT_STRATEGY, FILE_CONFLICT_STRATEGY_OVERWRITE, PROFILE_NAME, PROFILE_IS_PUBLIC);
pNova->SetOptionLong(NOVAPDF_SAVE_PROMPT, 0, PROFILE_NAME, PROFILE_IS_PUBLIC);
pNova->EndUpdateProfiles();
pNova->SetActiveProfile(PROFILE_NAME, PROFILE_IS_PUBLIC);
