How to print a PDF document from Labview?

I am looking to create a paper copy of a PDF document.  Note: I do NOT want to create a PDF document.
In other words I want to print a PDF document from Lab View or Visual Basic or C#.  The application is used in a production environment so I want a clean solution.
The requirements are:
1) Be able to specify the output printer.
2) Set the quantity to print.
3) Specify the file to print.
4) Function returns when printing is complete
5) Silent operation, that means no popup boxes.
Any help is appreciated.

  • How to print a pdf file from Labview

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how to print a pdf file form Labview. I need to be able to point on the pdf file and to print it.
    Activex examples doesnt seem to be working it always displays an error, on every PC that I tryed to run it.
    {"code 3005" ,,,"Automation Open: Object specified is not creatable in Display PDF in Dialog.vi"}.
    Thank you for your help.
    Regards,
    Jenia.

    You can use the "System Exec.vi". The command line should have the following structure:
    "<Path to AcroRd32.exe>" /t "<Path to document>" "Printer name"
    For example"
    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 5.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" /t "C:\myreport.pdf" "Tektronix Phaser 300i"

  • How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?

    How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?
    I have made a LabVIEW program where I have possibility to read a PDF document.  When I made this LabVIEW program it was Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 that was installed on the PC. Lather when the Acrobat Reader was upgraded to version 6.0, there was an error when VI tries to launch the LabVIEW program. And Later again when we upgraded to Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 I must again do some changes and rebuild the EXE files again
    It isn't so very big job to do the changes in one single LabVIEW program, but we have built a lot of LabVIEW programs so this take time to due changes every time vi update Acrobat Reader. (We have build EXE files.)
    The job is to right click the ActiveX container and Click "Insert ActiveX Object", then I can brows the computer for the new version of acrobat Reader. After this I must rebuild all the "methods" in the Activex call to make the VI executable again.
    Is there a way to build LabVIEW program so I don't have to do this job every time we update Acrobat Reader?
    This LabVIEW program is written in LabVIEW 6.1, but I se the problem is the same in LabVIEW 8.2.

    hi there
    try the vi
    ..vi.lib\platform\browser.llb\Open Acrobat Document.vi
    it uses DDE or the command line to run an external application (e.g. Adobe Acrobat)
    Best regards

  • How do I transfer pdf documents from my pc to my iOS device?

    How do I transfer a pdf document from my pc to my iOS device?  How do I tranfer a pdf document from my iOS device to my pc?

    The document Charu mentioned is great, but it is slightly out of date and missing one important method that I use frequently. I like to go to http://files.acrobat.com and upload files to my Acrobat.com account. The uploader there allows me to upload multiple documents at the same time (shift clicking on them on my PC or cmd-clicking on them on my Mac). Then, I connect my Adobe Reader to my Acrobat.com account and I can see all of those files!

  • Problem printing scanned PDF document from iPad to HP Photosmart Plus B209a

    Hi,
    I'd like to report a problem printing a scanned PDF document from iPad via HP ePrint application to my HP Photosmart Plus B209a printer. The document was sent to the printer without any issue. However, the printer only prints out the
     screenshot image in the center of the PDF page, and the image is enlarged and rotated to fit in an A4 paper. The rest of the document is simply ignored by the printer. The document with the problem can be downloaded in the link below:
    Download PDF document with the problem
    What could be wrong? Thank you in advance!

    Thanks for the reply.
    I received the document from my teacher, so I don't know what program she used to scan it.
    I tried to print the document directly from my PC which works fine though, so I guess the document is OK.
    My HP printer is an old model which doesn't support eprint or air print, so I used the eprint application on iOS to print the document. I tried both color and black/white which gave me the same result: only the center screenshot image is printed out, and the image is enlarged and rotated to fit an A4 paper, the rest of the document is just ignored.
    What do you mean by saving it as a document?

  • How can I read pdf documents from SD card

    Is it (or will it be) possible to read pdf documents from SD card in Windows Phone 8?
    Thanks

    Yes, it is possible. You can create even a folder on SD card and put in it the pdf's. It is working on my lumia 620 with Adobe reader 10.3 version.. You insert the SD in the phone, connect the phone to the computer and you will see the phone and the SD under it.
    More....
    You drag your pdf's on the SD card. when you open the Adobe reader on the phone you go to the documents and here they are (with a small card icon near the document which shows you that the file is on the SD card.

  • How to open the pdf document from KM  through Link to URL UI element

    Hi All,
    I have Link to URL UI element  in webdynpro java layout - on click of the link we need to open the pdf document from KM respository.
    KM Document location : irj/go/km/docs/documents/RHPortal//USA/A/Test/Employee_details.pdf.
    Once this is transported to Test and Production portals , we need to retrieve the KM document from the respective portal location through the Link to URL UI element .
    Thanks,
    Portaluser100

    Hi,
    If you set the link to your document in a Context attribute by using a relative path this should work just fine.
    Example:
    wdContext.currentContextElement().setUrl("/irj/go/km/docs/documents/RHPortal//USA/A/Test/Employee_details.pdf");
    Bind that attribute to the reference property of the LinkToURL element.
    Cheers,
    Leo
