Inventor View allows you to view Inventor files. Inventor View also installs a control that you can use in your own application. There is an issue with the 2015 version of the control. (This issue will be addressed in a service pack).
Apprentice Server can also be impacted by this issue. (In one case adding the path resolved an incomplete pdf file printed using Apprentice).
This post has details about this issue related to using the control in a 32 or 64 bit application.
The problem can be resolved by adding a folder to the path in the system Environment Variables. The path depends on what OS your application is running on and the bitness of your application:
InventorView Installed with Inventor:
32 bit OS: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Inventor 2015\Bin
64 bit OS / 32 bit process: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Inventor 2015\Bin\Bin32
64 bit OS / 64 bit process: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Inventor 2015\Bin
Standalone InventorView:
32 bit OS: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Inventor View 2015\Bin
64 bit OS / 32 bit process: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Inventor View 2015\Bin\Bin32
64 bit OS / 64 bit process: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Inventor View 2015\Bin
Add the folder to the end of the path in the Environment Variables. Be careful to leave the other paths as they are.
