|

Hello.
I need to automate the printing of PDF documents as they are received. I
am printing to the default windows printer. My previous process received
word documentsm, but must now move to PDF files and I am looking form
something that is fairly reliable.
Thanks.
- Lou

Once the FR3 document is exported, you can not control it- You can control
it while you have in FR3 format.
I suggest you use the PDF Creator feature. Its freeware. You print the FR3
reports but they go to one PDF printer! Its like Adobe Professional but is
free!

That is very interesting and I will bookmark it for later review. What I
need is the ability to Take an existig PDF file and Print it. I receive a
batch of PDFs that I then need to print out.
I have found something via google that indicates there is an ActiveX control
for Adobe acrobat or Reader to open a PDF file ad and Print it to current
default printer. THis may solve my problem.

It is no necesary. You cand create that unit in Delphi your self.
1) open your delphi
2) search your IMPORT ACTIVEX CONTROL
3) select Adobe Contor for Active X ( if you have Adobe Reader, you have
it! )
4) import
Delphi generates a TPDF class for you.
Now your can read and print externals PDF

Hi Lou,
If you want a native Delphi solution, you may want to have a look at Gnostice
PDFtoolkit and see if it works for your needs. PDFtoolkit provides components
for viewing and printing PDF documents from your Delphi applications.

If i unserstand the problem you need to print some pdf documents in a
particular order and not rundom depending on the size of the documents,
etc ....
If i understand righe i solved the problem creating asmall utility that
read a txt file and print all the documents listed in the file. It send
a file to the printer and wait until the spool is empty, then send the
next document
If you need i can give it to you.
