Customer Reviews
What was the biggest influence on your decision to purchase our software?
Jeff Shergalis: It met the requirements we had as far as behavior (i.e. we wanted something with our brand, something that could silently install, something that could launch an application after printing rather than having to run a service in the background waiting for printer messages).
Jeff Shergalis: Overall I have been very pleased with the product. I tested about 10 other SDK's and only one other one seemed like it would possibly meet our needs, but your product was easier to use and performed better.
Jonathan Matthews: Easy configuration, excellent support & bug fixing turnaround.
Sven Abels: The software itself (test version worked very fast and with good quality). Outstanding and very fast user support (our questions have been answered within just a view hours). Good price.
Szabolcs Toth:
1. Very good support and development team!!! and product test possibility.
2. Good solution and good website.
3. Good price.
Keep doing it as well as now!
Richard Hindley: Ease of use.
Sotiris Spanos: Developer Kit with customization + Free Runtimes + Fair price .

Our SDK catches print job and provides all printing parameters, lets you know the user's printing operations and processes task you wanna do. Only our leading SDK, ActMask Virtual Printer Driver has ability to provide some core printing parameters such as Pages Per Sheet, name of Windows Terminal computer and more.
Install Virtual Printer Driver without rebooting computer
Most users hate rebooting computer after installing. Yes, our SDK dose not reboot customer's computer on Win2K/2003/XP/Vista and your end user can experience your application immediately ! Try this impressive, amazing product now !
Provide Platform-Independent Constants
Only our SDK, ActMask Virtual Printer Driver provides Platform-Independent Constants - {sys} and {pf}. This feature is very helpful to dispose your application or migrate your 32 bit application to 64 bit OS smoothly.
With the driver configuration tools, you can simply use Platform-Independent Constants to specify your application what will be called after printing, but without caring about details below.
1. Real location of your application on end user's computer. For example, maybe the target path on end user is different from the path on your computer.
2. The Windows OS Platform (32 or 64 bit OS). 64 bit Windows OS applies file system redirection for 32 bit application, that means the location of 32 bit exe file on 64 bit OS is different from its location on 32 bit OS.
For example, specify your application will be called after printing: {pf}\Your Software\YourApplication.exe
Really support Windows Terminal Server / Service (Windows Remote Desktop Connection)
Unlike some products of other companies, our SDK, the ActMask Virtual Printer Driver really supports Windows Terminal Server / Service, it distributes created file(s) to document's owner immediately. Some products of other companies distribute/get created file(s) to the document's owner via writing and checking file name to/from registry values, this will lead to loss of performance and or damage.
Single one installation package
Unlike some products of other companies, we provide All-In-One installation package for Win9X/2K/XP/2003/Vista 32 and 64 bit systems. One installation package for all versions of Windows is enough! This's very helpful to dispose your application.
Full control of PDF / Image output, Smooth Printing / Scaling for superior image quality
PDF: Complete control, creates small file size PDF, provides title, keywords, 128 bit Encryption Protection, Font Embedding, Font/Content/Image Compression, Optimization options and more.
Image: What you see is what you get! And, unlike products of other companies, you can directly specify width and length for graphics output without changing DPI setting of printer! Three printing/scaling modes are provided:
-
Simple Playback: Use this option to get the fastest speed for rendering.
Nearest Neighbour / Bilinear: Use this option to get smooth, professional-quality graphics output. You will leave deep impression on these functions if the document contains small text (characters rendered in too small font size), vector line, vector shape or picture with obvious outline, see below. Only our SDK, ActMask Virtual Printer Driver provides these powerful functions!
