Hi Michael,

The error message from the printer seems to imply that the pdf conversion
did not occur but just a plain pdf stream is sent.
I'm not familiar with the QIMGCVTI API, in our shop we are using
Ghostscript in PASE for pdf to ps conversion and pdf to pcl conversion, and
then send that as *USERASCII spoolfile. We use (a bit customized) scripts
from the Young i Professionals.

If you are interested I can post some wrappers around this.

Best regards,
-Arco

My previous project about getting a GIF from a xml document and printing it
on a packing slip (PRTF) has hit a snag.

After getting the image, I save the image and use the AFP resource on the
printer file and have the printer file create a PDF. Then I use QIMGCVTI
procedure to convert the PDF back to a spool file of *USERASCII.

Everything worked fine on our IT printer. The issue came about when we
tried printing on their HP LaserJet 4350. They are getting an error
stating "PDF file not printed 128 MB of memory is required to enable
direct PDF printing.
