Check the [releases](https://github.com/stchan/PdfScribe/releases) page to download a prebuilt MSI package.\r\n\r\n## System Requirements\r\n\r\n* 64-bit Windows (x64)\r\n* .NET Framework 4.8 or later\r\n\r\n## Building from source\r\n\r\nVisual Studio 2022 is required to build PdfScribe.\r\n\r\nPdfScribe links to, and distributes the following third party components:\r\n\r\n* Microsoft Postscript Printer Driver (V3)\r\n* Ghostscript (64-bit)\r\n* Redmon 1.9 (64-bit)\r\n\r\n## License\r\n\r\nPdfScribe is AGPLv3+.\r\n\r\n\r\n## Configuration\r\n \r\nIn the application config file (PdfScribe.exe.config), there are the following settings in the \"applicationSettings\" element:\r\n\r\n* ****AskUserForOutputFilename**** - set value to *true* if you want PdfScribe to ask the user where to save the PDF.\r\n* ****OutputFile**** - if there is a constant filename you want the PDF to be saved to, set its value here. Environment variables can be used. PdfScribe will overwrite each time. This setting is ignored if  **AskUserForOutputFilename** is set to *true*. Note that a literal % character cannot be used even though it is legal in a Windows filename.\r\n* ****OpenAfterCreating**** - set value to *true* if you want the PDF automatically opened with the default viewer. This setting is ignored if the file extension is not .PDF\r\n* ****StripNoRedistill**** - set to *true* if you want PdfScribe to remove any postscript that prevents printing of secured PDFs (see issues #25,#33 for details). A separate pass of the postscript output needs to be made, so only set to *true* if needed.\r\n\r\n## Known Issues\r\n* Check repo [issues](https://github.com/stchan/PdfScribe/issues) for the latest.\r\n\r\n## Release notes\r\n#### v1.4.1\r\n* Fix for issue #49 (File extension does not match file type) by @MatteoBattilana (Pull request [#50](https://github.com/stchan/PdfScribe/pull/50))\r\n#### v1.4.0\r\n* Wix (installer) upgrade, Ghostscript 10.05, x64 CPU required to install\r\n","funding_links":[],"categories":[],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fstchan%2Fpdfscribe","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fstchan%2Fpdfscribe","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fstchan%2Fpdfscribe/lists"}
