PrintCreator aborts if "Print to PDF" is selected. It works as advertised if a different printer is selected.
Can you reproduce the dysfunction using last post 6.0.0 beta1 windows installer ? https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Gilles Caulier
I'll give it a try. Is there any way I can import my 5.9 database into 6.0 beta 1? Then I can stay with 6.0 and don't have to switch versions all te time.
It's sqlite or mysql ? In all cases, make a backup of current DB files. Install 6.0.0, and start it. The application must do the job automatically. Gilles Caulier
Jan, The Windows installer have been recompiled with last changes from source code and is available here for testing : https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Take a care : it's a beta release. Make a database backup before to test. Problem still here ? Gilles Caulier

It is still the same.
Install DebugView from Microsoft, and look the debug trace generated by digiKam while this dysfunction. Gilles Caulier
I hope this is what you are looking for. Otherwise I need better instructions how to use the debugger.

yes it is. debugview is not a crash handler, it just print debug messages generated by an application. Under Linux, this can be catch through a terminal.

Jan, We have updated Qt to last 5.14 and KF5 to 5.65 in the bundles. Can you reproduce the problem with digiKam 7.0.0-beta2 pre release ? https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Thanks in advance Gilles Caulier
Until March I am traveling and unable to test.
I tested with 7.0.0 beta 3. I am still getting "Printing process aborted".
digiKam 7.0.0 stable release is now published and now available as FlatPak: https://www.digikam.org/news/2020-07-19-7.0.0_release_announcement/ We need a fresh feedback on this file using this version. Thanks in advance Gilles Caulier

Hi Jan and happy new year, Can you reproduce the problem with digiKam 7.5.0 pre-release installer for Windows avaialble here : https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Best regards Gilles Caulier
Downloaded version 7.5.0. The first time is started the Print Creator with a single image digiKam froze. The second time after going through the screens without making any changes I got "Printing process aborted", the same issue as reported earlier.
Just tested under Windows and problem still present with current 8.1.0
@Jan van Bekkum, This problem still reproducible with the new digiKam 8.2.0 pre-release Windows installer available at usual place: https://files.kde.org/digikam/ This new bundle is based on last Qt framework 5.15.11 and KDE framework 5.110. Thanks in advance Gilles Caulier
Maik, Problem remain with 8.2.0 VCPKG installer. DebugView said : [1416] QPrintDialog: Cannot be used on non-native printers GIlles
Git commit aab30b846508c990af4d71d5533c72d552a13b7f by Gilles Caulier. Committed on 21/11/2023 at 05:50. Pushed by cgilles into branch 'master'. Under Windows print directly to PDF is not a native format, in opposite to Linux and MacOS. A specific PDF generator must be installed under Windows as a virtual printer driver. PDF is now not available as output format under Windows.
