Gui fails if running in computer accessed by windows remote desktop session and session disconnects

Alister Hood — Sun, 17 Jan 2021 20:32:47 -0000

Hi, running on Windows 10:
- I connect via Windows remote desktop client to another computer
- run pdfsam there
- close the remote desktop connection
- either reconnect or go and log on locally to the machine I was logged on to remotely.
The pdfsam gui no longer works - the main window doesn't update, and is invisible if pdfsam was underneath another window when the remote desktop connection was closed.
This is an issue with recent pdfsam versions, but not with 2.2.x, so I'm guessing it is an upstream issue with JavaFX.

By the way, if you're wondering why I use the remote desktop connection, I have a VPN but if I run pdfsam on the local machine it gets stuck if I try to save outputs on a remote server. But I know the VPN is unreliable, and I don't know if this would still be a problem with a more reliable VPN.

Alternate Mix function program crash

Ken Wilson — Wed, 06 May 2020 19:09:40 -0000

Newly installed under Windows 10 Pro. All functions work correctly except Alternate Mix. When given two 4 page PDFs (which have been tested as good using other PDFsam functions), it says bad PDF, without specifying which one and the logs says this:

#104 Pages left blank after merging

Andrea Vacondio — Mon, 02 Nov 2015 14:38:34 -0000

Hi, PDFsam v3 has moved to GitHub, could you please open the issue here? https://github.com/torakiki/pdfsam/issues
We will also need the PDF documents to understand the issue, if they cannot be published maybe you can share them only with us, we'll keep it private.

Pages left blank after merging

Lucas Verhelst — Mon, 02 Nov 2015 13:24:01 -0000

Some pages are left blank after merging documents with two pages on one created by docuprinter from adobe reader. Before merging pages seem to be OK.

version: 3.0.0.M4

#103 Files are not closed properly

Scott Severance — Sun, 11 Oct 2015 20:18:47 -0000

Unfortunately, I don't have any development tools on this machine, nor do I have any knowledge about how to build Java programs from source, nor about how to build any software on Windows. I've never encountered any other open source Windows software that doesn't come in binary form with an installer. Is there a Windows installer for version 3?

#103 Files are not closed properly

Andrea Vacondio — Fri, 09 Oct 2015 07:16:11 -0000

Hi, could you test if the issue is still present in PDFsam v3?
the version you are using is not supported anymore and in few weeks the stable release of PDFsam v3 will be out. You can find it here https://github.com/torakiki/pdfsam/releases

Files are not closed properly

Scott Severance — Thu, 08 Oct 2015 16:16:55 -0000

pdfsam basic v. 2.2.4
Windows 7
Java 8?

To reproduce:
1. Use the Rotate plugin (or possibly another plugin).
2. Now, try to rename or delete the file you rotated.
3. Windows doesn't allow any operations on the file because pdfsam still has it open.
4. The only way to get the file closed is to exit pdfsam.

Correct behavior:
Pdfsam should open each file prior to processing it, and then close the file immediately upon completion of the process. Of course, one could argue that Windows is being less than intelligent by not allowing files to be renamed or deleted when a program has them open. But, there's a 0% chance of Windows changing.

#98 multi-level bookmarks broken after removing pages in visual reorder

Sean Gibbens — Tue, 23 Sep 2014 01:39:46 -0000

Encountered the same issue with PDF Split and Merge basic 2.2.4.
Running Java Version 7 Update 60, Windows 7 x32, Visual reorder 0.0.7.

It's strange that this bug exists, especially because the pages I removed through visual reorder do not have bookmarks on them.
Steps to reproduce:
1)open document with multi-level bookmarks
2)remove a few pages with the visual reorder plugin (can be pages with bookmarks or not)
3)choose an output file
4)run

You will see the faulty result in a screenshot I provided.
