Is it possible to batch print .pdf AND .doc files together?

I need to let users to batch print a set of files that includes both .PDFs and .DOCs. Since <cfprint> allows .PDF files only, what would you suggest?
Thanks!

That raises a large RED Flag that you may be misunderstanding the <cfprint...> functionality.  <cfprint...> can NOT print to a printer that is configured to the clients computer.  So if that is what you are looking to do, you need to be looking at Client side technology.  But be aware, that current, common, browser based web applications generally have very limited connections to client hardware.  If you are willing to get into Flex, Flash, Air (or another company's technologies) you could probably do more.  But HTML and JavaScript currently do not have much access to the hardware of a client computer.
The <cfprint...> tag is designed to send a print job from the SERVER running the ColdFusion application to a printer connected to that server.  IF you are writing programs with no knowledge of the server network configurations (I.E. an application meant to be sold to various customers) this becomes much more difficult to do.  But if you are writing a CFML application to be run on a known network, which is what many of us do, then it should be pretty easy to know what printers are connected to the server running ColdFusion and figure out what capabilities those printers have.

  • Attach .pdf and .doc files to Reply emails.

    I am desperately trying to figure out how to attach .pdf and .doc files to Reply emails in the Mail app. I have downloaded GoodReader, but when I go into "Manage Files" and choose "Open in...", Mail is not one of the apps listed for me to choose from (only Quickoffice and iBooks are listed, that's it). My Gmail account is pushed to the Mail app, if that's relevant at all.
    I'm hoping to be able to attach documents to Reply emails in the Mail app, but if I have to do it using my web-based email, that's better than nothing. I just really need to be able to attach them to Replies, and not compose a new email from scratch.
    I'd REALLY appreciate any help with this!
    Thanks.

    I thought I might be able to figure out a clever work-around by using cut and paste from a new message but this did not work as expected. I have been using the MobileMe iDisk app to store pdf files and then just mailing out the links.  I believe my cut and paste method would have worked with this, however I've got about a year now to figure out another way to do this if it is not included in Apple's new cloud service. This has actually been a better as I need to worry less about file size and don't need to have the files stored on the device.
    You may want to look into what on-line file storage solutions are out there and if they have the ability to send links to files to colleagues, possibly with password protection.

  • .pdf and .doc files corrupted on 2 Macs?

    On an iMac and a shared Mac Mini, a number of PDF and DOC files have all of a sudden gotten corrupt. Some of these have not been modifed in 2 years but all of a sudden are corrupt. I've tried Data Rescue and cannot find anything online about these multiple files getting corrupted. I've rebuilt permissions and done various ML Cache Cleaner options to no avail. Anyone heard of anything like this? It just happened all of a sudden on 2 computers. At first I figured the first computer had the partition going bad but that doesn't explain 2 computers at once.

  • Opening attached .pdf and .doc files

    I am having a mental moment and can't figure out how to
    (attach to button) import .pdf or .doc files so that they open when
    the project is published. The buttons are linked to files on my
    computer...when I publish, Captivate knows the files are there and
    tells me:
    "The files/projects listed below are linked to the open
    project. The linked files/projects may require exporting.
    It is also important to copy all referenced files and
    projects with their corresponding HTML files to the output folder."
    1. How do I export the linked files?
    2. What output folder is it refering to?
    Thanks in advance...I'm obviously new to captivate.
    js

    Hi again js
    Certainly linking to the documents from MenuBuilder is one
    approach.
    Are you saying the links from Captivate are failing you? You
    may wish to try a technique I outlined in
    this
    thread.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Cs5 InDesign crashing when exporting print pdf and markup file?

    We just did our upgrade yesterday from cs4 to cs5. Two things that I have discovered so far that I haven’t been able to figure out.
    I need to create a pdf from a file...I go to export — print pdf — this QUITS (if I do the interactive pdf it works okay but I need a print ready one. I had to print a postscript file  — then distill it in acrobat — so far, knock on wood that works but is time consuming.
    I tried to export a — InDesign MarkUp file (imdl), the new interchange to go from 5 to 4 — I was thinking okay...I will just take the cs5 file back to cs4 and make the pdf there but when making the imdl file to open in cs4 I also crash.
    any help would be appreciated!

    I had a major problem with exporting CS5 Indesign interactive PDF doc (270pgs) it would crash reasonbly consistently, other times behave OK?  After many hours reading forums, and Adobe help desk I found my own work-around which I want to share (as I couldn't believe it was so simple and worked!)
    OK..so the doc has navigation buttons and hyperlinks all the way through....I Exported half the doc.  Then the other half.  Then I combined in Acrobat. 
    There it is....simple and boy am I happy now!!

  • Is it possible to import a .pdf or .doc file into DVD studio Pro 4?

    When I finally finish my 2D animation for my Senior Project and finally make the DVD, I want to include the short story that the animation is based on to the DVD. I want to import it as .pdf or a .doc into DVD Studio Pro 4. What I want to know is, is if this is possible, or if is not, is there another acceptable file format that I can use if .pdf or .doc isn't possible?
    Message was edited by: obisgirl

    Techincally you can create a link to take it to the file... but there are so many different software DVD players that it doesnt work with 90% of them so its pointless..
    as for including your files on the DVD....
    First make sure your files are all in one folder called DVD Content or something like that so they know its in that location
    then in DVDSP at the top where all the icons are...
    hit build and format.
    in the general tab you will see...
    Disc
    Source
    DVD-ROM Data
    destination
    under DVD-ROM Data check the content box.
    Choose the folder you have all your files in.
    joliet extension support doesnt really matter but i always click it so that windows can identify better what file format it is.
    then continue building and formating.
    let me know if that works or if you run into an issue.

  • F380 printer won't print PDF or Doc files

    My printer won't print Docx files sent through email.  It also has trouble printing PDF documents.  It quits after the first page, and no matter what I do won't print the other pages. I'm using a Toshiba Satellite laptop with Windows Vista. I tried HP print doctor, but it couldn't find the problem.  I went to the HP site but found no new drivers for my exact printer, and a warning that if I uninstalled my current driver and installed one of theirs, they wouldn't provide any support, since my OS is older than Windows7.   I noticed that the person sending me these files has windows 10 installed on his computer.  (For what it's worth.) Printer works fine otherwise. Thanks!

  • Converting .pdf and .doc files into .txt file

    Can anyone here please tell me (a humble programmer) if there's anything in Java to help me accomplish the above, i.e. to strip the markup of these files.
    Or perhaps someone might know if there are programs already out there that can?
    Any pointers or advice would be great, thanks

    PDF: iText (www.lowagie.org or .com) and FOP (at apache.org, or maybe jakarta.apache.org) are the de facto standards for writing PDF in Java, but I don't think either of them will help you with reading it. You might check out etymon. I think that reads PDF. Or you could google for java pdf reader
    Doc: Check out POI, again at either jakarta or apache.

  • Canon printer wont print PDF and Word files... sometimes.

    I face a very special problem with my iMac and my Canon printer (Pixma MG5350): Since a few weeks, the printer wont print most PDF files correctly, the same with existing Word files. A blank or blurred sheet is coming out of the machine. But: When I create a brand new Word file and fill it with text, the printer prints it clean and neat. The same with the official Canon test prints – no troubles at all. I have also tried to sort out the problem with the help from Apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3147?viewlocale=de_DE, without success. Glad about every help!

    My next suggestion would be to try an alternate driver to the Canon.
    There is the Gutenprint v5.2.9 suite which is free and lists the MG5300 series as a supported model. You could download and install this driver suite and add the Gutenprint MG5300 driver and see if this gives you the same problem.
