    Posted: 15 Jan 10 at 6:23PM
I recently purchased PDF reDirect v2 and I have been trying to create a batch printer. When I go to preferences and click on batch printer, I can click add to add a new printer. But after naming the printer, I get the following error:
 
Sorry. PDF Batch Printer could not be added. There was an error.
 
I'm totally stuck and I need to get this project rolling. Can anyone help.

Dear k,

   I am sorry to hear of the problem. I would check your user permissions first: do you have the administrative rights to install printers?

   If you do, then the problem is elsewhere, and we need to find out what the error message is.

 I can suggest you "record" an error log and send it to me so that I can see where the error is occurring, and hopefully why. This is how it is done:

  1. Start PDF reDirect (manually, or through the "Print" command)
  2. Click on the green "Preferences" button
  3. Select "Generate Log Files"
  4. Click "OK" to save your setting
  5. Try to generate a Batch Printer again until the error occurs.
  6. Return to the "General" tab
  7. Click on the "View Log File" button
  8. Copy and paste the error log in an e-mail back to me.
  9. You can turn the error logging back OFF.

    Hopefully I can make some sense of what is going on by looking at the log.
