Summary: PDFPrint Pro fails to install Product: Wine Version: 1.1.29 Platform: PC URL: http://www.fineprint.com/release/pdf351pro.exe OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Keywords: download, Installer Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dank@kegel.com
Noticed a user write in http://talkback.zdnet.com/5208-12554-0.html?forumID=1&threadID=69179&... that "I don't have access to some software anymore. Most notably PDF Factory pro (in my opinion one of the best pieces of software ever written) and tax software. So I maintain a dual boot XP for when I need to do some heavy lifting PDF-ing, or tax filing."
So I downloaded PDFFactory Pro and tried installing it.
pdf351pro.exe, sha1sum e9baefc05c5242347291ae7ad2627904d151eb57, is freely downloadable from the vendor. When you run it, it complains
fixme:localspl:validate_envW unsupported Environment: L"Windows IA64" ... 001c:Call user32.MessageBoxA(00020048,0033f104 "This version of pdfFactory Pro is for Windows NT4/2000/XP/2003/Vista.\n\nYou can download other versions of pdfFactory Pro at www.pdffactory.com.",0033f074 "pdfFactory Pro",00010010) ret=2800cfe7
You can unpack the installer with rar. It contains a Readme.txt that mentions that the 32 and 64 bit installers were combined into a single downloadable just four days ago, so maybe there are some bugs left. It also contains setup.exe and setup-x64.exe. Running setup.exe reproduces the problem with a shorter log.
