clawPDF VS sumatrapdf

Depending on the output format you need you then either use Windows' "print to PDF" driver and print these documents on your cards or, if you need a picture format, install a printer driver to "print" to tiff, jpeg or png.

Look at https://github.com/clawsoftware/clawPDF you should be able to build a printer that meets your requirements with it.

Another possibility would be to install a virtual printer driver like clawPDF and just print the required pages, either to PDF or to multipage TIFF (if your music scanner accepts that). Windows' own PDF printer doesn't seem able to print only part of an opened document.

Az érdekes, hogy a pdf creator magja az amúgy open source, csak ugye nem teszik ki ezt az ablakba, meg buildből csak a reklámokkal telitoltat rakják ki. De! Létezik a ClawPdf ami konkrétan ugyanaz mint a pdfCreator, csak nincs benne a sok reklám meg hasonló borzalom: https://github.com/clawsoftware/clawPDF

I’m curious, have you tried SumatraPDF (uses muPDF under the hood)?

https://github.com/sumatrapdfreader/sumatrapdf

Do you mind reporting those issues either to SumatraPDF at https://github.com/sumatrapdfreader/sumatrapdf/issues or directly to MuPDF at https://bugs.ghostscript.com/ if it also has the same issue? Thank you!

There are many wonderfully weird PDFs and epubs out there, but we do our best to fix issues. :)

FWIW, https://github.com/sumatrapdfreader/sumatrapdf/issues/1249 ("Support form filling for at least 1040 irs form") has a comment saying "MuPDF-GL has the capability to edit fields and save the PDF" of a 1040.

I have just learned the Firefox 93 added support XFA - https://techdows.com/2021/10/open-xfa-pdfs-in-firefox.html .

So it would appear there are free software solutions to XFA forms.

Just because something doesn't seem far-fetched to you, doesn't mean most people will regard it as far-fetched.

Many people all sorts of "sectarian objections" - far more than there are SovCits or other tax protesters. Stallman has never come across as a tax protester. Ergo, I think it's far-fetched that "sectarian objections" is strongly associated with tax protests.

Further, at https://stallman.org/archives/2017-may-aug.html we can read Stallman opinine that we need to "return to the "bad old days", when Americans in general could have a decent life, not penury; when the US could afford to build what the public needed instead of privatizing everything with a toll" by making taxation more progressive. At https://stallman.org/archives/2011-jan-apr.html we read he supports "The Fairness in Taxation Act [which] would raise taxes to 45% on incomes over a million dollars a year."

If you are going to run something in wine, try sumatrapdf. It's FOSS but Windows only. (sadly, but runs great on wine)

Sumatra is Adobe free, free, and can remember the page you were on.

Sumatra PDF has always been my choice: minimal, lightweight, no bloat... just perfect!
