I have carefully read the article by developer Taf, in which he described the method in order to make it completely portable.

By default after the creation of a PDF-file with Tomahawk PDF+ will be opened the Adobe Reader on the host PC (For this case I assume, that the Adobe Reader is installed on the host PC). Unfortunately this will generates some registry keys, which are associated with the Adobe Reader.

To avoid these entries, I have customized the file TPdfPlus.ini contained in the folder X-Tomahawk\User\TomahawkPDF. This file should contain the following code:


[PDF]
PageSize=0
Orientation=0
PageMode=0
Layout=1
Version=1
Embedding=2
Author=
AutoLaunch=0


In particular is achieved by the entry "AutoLaunch=0", that in the dialog window titled "Tomahawk Pdf Creator" the checkbox named "Launch Acrobat Reader after creation" is disabled. This dialog window can be opened about File -> Convert to Pdf.
Accordingly, the user should be cautioned not to activate this checkbox.
