novaPDF SDK sends a request to create the PDF files to the printer driver that gets installed with the package, novaPDF for SDK. By default, if novaPDF SDK is unregistered, each page from the generated PDF file will contain a footer notice (that says the application is not registered). After you purchase a license and register novaPDF SDK, that footer notice won't be included in the generated PDF files.

novaPDF isn't set as the default printer after calling RestoreDefaultPrinter() function.

Do I need novaPDF SDK to change printer options? Can I generate pdf files without the notice on the bottom of the pages mentioning novaPDF?

If I set an option via COM, that be persistent after the program terminates?
