What are Pdf32.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library Pdf32.dll Errors

Pdf32.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like Pdf32.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like Setup.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. PDF Printer Driver) could share the same Pdf32.dll file, saving valuable memory allocation, therefore making your computer run more efficiently.

Unfortunately, what makes DLL files so convenient and efficient, also makes them extremely vulnerable to problems. If something happens to a shared DLL file, either it goes missing or gets corrupted in some way, it can generate a "runtime" error message. Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these errors are triggered when Pdf32.dll is attempted to be loaded either when PDF Printer Driver is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common Pdf32.dll errors include:

Your Pdf32.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with PDF Printer Driver), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, Pdf32.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading PDF Printer Driver, system crash while loading Pdf32.dll, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or quite commonly, a malware infection. Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.



How to Fix Pdf32.dll Errors in 3 Steps (Time to complete: ~5-15 minutes)

If you're encountering one of the error messages above, follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve your Pdf32.dll issue. These troubleshooting steps are listed in the recommended order of execution.


Step 1: Restore your PC back to the latest restore point, "snapshot", or backup image before error occurred.

To begin System Restore (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10):

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. When you see the search box, type "System Restore" and press "ENTER".
  3. In the search results, find and click System Restore.
  4. Please enter the administrator password (if applicable / prompted).
  5. Follow the steps in the System Restore Wizard to choose a relevant restore point.
  6. Restore your computer to that backup image.

If the Step 1 fails to resolve the Pdf32.dll error, please proceed to the Step 2 below.

Step 2: If recently installed PDF Printer Driver (or related software), uninstall then try reinstalling PDF Printer Driver software.

Step 3: Perform a Windows Update.

When the first two steps haven't solved your issue, it might be a good idea to run Windows Update. Many Pdf32.dll error messages that are encountered can be contributed to an outdated Windows Operating System. To run Windows Update, please follow these easy steps:

  1. Hit the Windows Start button
  2. In the search box, type "Update" and press "ENTER".
  3. In the Windows Update dialog box, click "Check for Updates" (or similar button depending on your Windows version)
  4. If updates are available for download, click "Install Updates".
  5. After the update is completed, restart your PC.

If Windows Update failed to resolve the Pdf32.dll error message, please proceed to next step. Please note that this final step is recommended for advanced PC users only.



If Those Steps Fail: Download and Replace Your Pdf32.dll File (Caution: Advanced)

If none of the previous three troubleshooting steps have resolved your issue, you can try a more aggressive approach (Note: Not recommended for amateur PC users) by downloading and replacing your appropriate Pdf32.dll file version. We maintain a comprehensive database of 100% malware-free Pdf32.dll files for every applicable version of PDF Printer Driver. Please follow the steps below to download and properly replace you file:

  3. Copy this file to the appropriate PDF Printer Driver folder location:
    Windows 10: C:\Windows\System32\
  4. Restart your computer.

If this final step has failed and you're still encountering the error, you're only remaining option is to do a clean installation of Windows 10.


GEEK TIP : We must emphasize that reinstalling Windows will be a very time-consuming and advanced task to resolve Pdf32.dll problems.

Download Pdf32.dll Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying Pdf32.dll to your appropriate Windows system directory. Black Ice Software typically does not release PDF Printer Driver DLL files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer.

An incorrectly installed DLL file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
