NAV 2009 installed on Windows 10 - Issue with amyuni (navision) pdf converter for sending emails

Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

When attempting to invoice out emails from Navision 2009, navision uses a tool "amyuni pdf converter" which when installed you have to rename "navision PDF converter". The converter saves a pdf to a temp location where navision grabs it and emails it out. It also does the same for payslips and remittance emails within navision. 

This is the error i receive: "printer not activated error code -30"

Printer has been activated with the correct code. I have registered the .dll files as they can cause issues but that was on windows 7.

Also made sure the user has local admin rights.

Nav 2009 requires version amyuni 4.5.0 which could be issue with that version and windows 10. I installed version 5.5.0 and that worked but it brings up a prompt when exporting and then you need to save the name of the pdf identically to the name navision looks for the pdf in the temp location and doing that can take a good 5 minutes per email. When your doing 20 emails at a time this can cause a bit of an issue

Can anyone help with this issue please or maybe something i can edit in the new version of Amyuni printer to make it work?

    It absolutely works also for batching email. It’s just a free pdf printer.

    Hi Stephano, Sorry for the late reply. Can i ask you another question relating to bullzip.

    I have spoken with our Dynamics Navision support partner and asked them to remove the Amyuni PDF converter and setup bullzip to work in its place. Their support department has said it will work but it may have a problem with batch emailing. Is this correct? or will bullzip work with one or multiple invoice or payroll emails with PDF printed attachments?

    Windows 10 is not officially supported by MS for NAV 2009. Officially supported releases started from NAV 2013: blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/.../windows-10-and-dynamics-nav However I’ve not see any problems.

    Hi Stephano, sorry this might be slightly off the original topic but can you tell me if NAV 2009 R2 is fully supported for windows 10, and if so is there any documentation that states this from Microsoft? reason i say this is our support partner for NAV is trying to brush their hands of our issues due to Windows 10 being installed and they are stating that its not supported.

    With NAV 2009 (I think you're using this version isn't it?) you can use BullZip PDF printer. It's free and works good with NAV.

    Thanks for the reply stephano. Yea this is correct. Amyuni pdf printer was setup by external company. What can I setup to make this work and allow silent printing without the popup and file location requirements.

    This is not a product related to NAV. I think that you need to set via code the way for a "silent printing", it should not ask you for a file name or for saving a file.
