Step 2. Create association of PDF Index Generator with PDFIG files
If, despite the installed application, the PDFIG file does not start in the PDF Index Generator application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the PDF Index Generator application as the default for handling the PDFIG file.
Step 3. Update PDF Index Generator to the latest version
If, however, after binding PDF Index Generator with PDF Index Generator Project Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the PDF Colony Software website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PDFIG file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The PDFIG file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to PDFIG files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the PDFIG file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover PDFIG files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of PDFIG file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular PDFIG file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact PDF Colony Software
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file PDFIG except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move PDFIG to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the PDFIG file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the PDFIG file again. However, some background programs may block the PDFIG file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
