VeryPDF HookPrinter SDK

VeryPDF HookPrinter SDK is a software solution designed to help you intercept data sent to a physical or virtual printer and save it locally for it to be processed further using other utilities. It can be installed or uninstalled from a command-line interface or via script.

Essentially, the software captures printer output that would be sent to a communications port and saves the content to a temporary location in the form of spool files. These can be converted to other formats, such as PDF, using specialized utilities.

Once you have installed VeryPDF HookPrinter SDK, any printed content will also be saved in a temporary location, and the software can be configured to run a command-line application, with a set of arguments, in order to process the files immediately.

It is possible to capture PCL, PXL, RAW, EMF-SPL, PS, EPS, PRN, SPL and various other types of data from Windows printer drivers, and the software also supports Ghostscript, ImageMagick and other third-party applications.

VeryPDF HookPrinter SDK comes with documentation that details how the printer capture software can be installed or uninstalled, as well as how to configure it once it has been set up. For saving captured print jobs to PDF, you will also need VeryPDF SPL to PDF Converter Command Line.
