How to print PDF files using java print API

Hi,
I was goign throw lot of discusion and reading lot of forums related to print pdf files using java api. but nothing seems to be working for me. Can any one tell me how to print pdf files using java api.
Thanks in advance

Mike,
Can't seem to get hold of the example described in your reply below. If you could let us have the URL to get then it would be great.
My GUI application creates a pdf document which I need to print. I want to achieve this using the standard Java class PrinterJob (no 3rd party APIs I'm afraid, commercial restraints etc ..). I had a stab at it using the following code. When executed I get the pretty printer dialog then when I click ok to print, nothing happens!
boolean showPrintDialog=true;
PrinterJob printJob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob ();
printJob.setJobName ("Contract.pdf");
try {
if (showPrintDialog) {
if (printJob.printDialog()) {
printJob.print();
else
printJob.print ();
} catch (Exception PrintException) {
PrintException.printStackTrace();
Thank you and a happy new year.
Cheers,
Chris

Hi Ankur,
I had something link this requirement, that also for a concurrent program output only, but the output was txt file, and make it a zip file and give a dynamic link and open it.
For that i used the following code, may be it will help.
String zipout = pageContext.getParameter("ZIPOUT");
if(zipout!=null && zipout.equals("Y"))
try
DataObject sessionDictionary = (DataObject) pageContext.getNamedDataObject("_SessionParameters");
HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse) sessionDictionary.selectValue(null, "HttpServletResponse");
HttpServletRequest request = (HttpServletRequest) sessionDictionary.selectValue(null, "HttpServletRequest");
String requestID = pageContext.getParameter("REQUESTID");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","p; filename=CatExtract"+requestID+".zip");
response.setContentType("application/x-zip-compressed");
ZipOutputStream zip = new ZipOutputStream(response.getOutputStream());
try
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int bytesRead;
//to get the value of output directory
String fileName = "/o"+requestID+".out";
Serializable[] parameters = { requestID };
//Get the output URL for this requests output.
pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean).invokeMethod("getOutputURL", parameters);
String outputURL = (String)pageContext.getTransactionValue("OutputURL");
pageContext.writeDiagnostics(this.getClass().getName(),"outputURL in the xxt CO"+outputURL,1);
try
URL fileURL = new URL(outputURL);
URLConnection urlConn = fileURL.openConnection();
DataInputStream out = new DataInputStream(urlConn.getInputStream());
try
ZipEntry entry = new ZipEntry(fileName);
zip.putNextEntry(entry);
while ((bytesRead = out.read(buffer)) != -1)
zip.write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
zip.closeEntry();
pageContext.writeDiagnostics(entry.getName(), " added.",1);
catch (Exception ex)
pageContext.writeDiagnostics(this.getClass().getName(),"Exception 113"+ex,1);
finally
out.close();
catch (IOException ex)
pageContext.writeDiagnostics(this.getClass().getName(),"Exception 124"+ex,1);

How to open Word Document using java?

Respected Sir/ Madam,
I am doing my project in Network Security using java. I have to transfer the files from server to the client. Each transferred file should have some of the access privileges such as read, write and exeucte. If the transferred file is a word document means then automatically the client should open Microsoft word and if the file is having Read Permission alone then the save, Save As, cut,copy, paste options in the MS - Word should be disabled. This is similar for all the files that i have transferred. That is if the transferred file is excel, audio, video,txt file the corresponding application should be opened properly. How could I acheive this. If the file is having write permission then if the user clicks the save option then the contents of the file should be saved in the server machine not in the client machine, Could we achieve this???? Can anyone help me regarding this? Please give me your views about this query?

Respected Sir / Madam,
Thank you very much for your reply. Could we use Microsoft API inside java program to achieve my doubts?? Could U explain it more????

Error trying to open a file using java.io.* in an Applet

I have a file called wordlist.txt and I am using java.io.* to open it. When I try it
in Applet Viewer it runs without a hitch. But when I try to run it in a
browser as an Applet, it errors out saying:
com.ms.security.SecurityExceptionEx[package3/SpellCheck.setWordList]: cannot access file wordlist.txt
I have tried adding this file to my Project and accessing it that way but I still get
the same message. If anyone can help with this, I sure would appreciate it.
My code is as follows:
String inWord = new String("zzz");
try {
File myWordList = new File("wordlist.txt");
BufferedReader inWordList = new BufferedReader(
new FileReader(myWordList));
inWord = inWordList.readLine();
while (inWord != null) {
wordList.addElement(inWord);
inWord = inWordList.readLine();
} // end while
inWordList.close();
} // end try
catch (Exception e1) {
// Pr is equivalent System.out.println();
Pr("Error Reading this line " + '\n' + inWord + '\n' + e1);
} // end catch
} // end setWordList()

Applets are generally prevented from reading as well as writing files, but appletviewer can load files from the hard drive, so, that is the cause of the behaviour you have observed. To know more about enabling applets load files, you have to sign your applets,

How to hide hidden files using java FileSystemView

My application has a browser. I use the following method from FileSystemView
public File[] getFiles(File dir,
boolean useFileHiding)
with false as the second argument so that the browser doesn't display hidden files.
It doesn't work completely.
I found out there are two types of hidden files in Mac. the ones that being with "." (unix based) and the ones that have an invisibility attribute for the meta of the file (folders like /usr, /bin, /tmp, /etc).
The getFiles filter works only for hidden files that start with "." but it still shows the second type of hidden files.
For the second type of hidden files in Mac, how can I get the invisibility file attribute information in Java so that I can hide them from the file browser?
thanks,

The GetFileInfo tool that ships with the XCode Tools can display the file's information. Additionally, the SetFile tool allows setting those flags. How you use java to implement those, I suggest you ask at the Unix forum under OS X Technologies.
