Print PDF Silently

I am looking for a straight answers as to if it is possible to print a PDF silently, perhaps using Adobe SDK?
The criteria are:
Print from Windows 7,
Using .Net/ C#.
No GhostScript
No Adobe Reader popup.
No Printer Dialog (Printer properties will be set through .Net)
I am reading a lot of interest on this, and I understand previous versions of Adobe did silent printing but it may have been removed due to security reasons.
I have created the following code, but it requires the printer to understand postscript and I cannot guarantee this: Ideally what I am looking for is an open source way to pull each page in a PDF, convert it to an image and print it separately.
ProcessStartInfo psInfo = new ProcessStartInfo();
psInfo.FileName = "print";
psInfo.Arguments = String.Format(@" /d:{0} {1}", sSelectedPrinter, sFileToPrint);               
psInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
psInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
psInfo.UseShellExecute = true;
psInfo.ErrorDialog = true;
Process process = Process.Start(psInfo);
process.WaitForExit();

Can anyone provide an example of printing from the Adobe SDK?
I need to specify a printer programmatically.
I do not want to see a printer dialog popup
And do not want to see an Adobe viewer popup.
I am trying Ghostscript.Net, but when printing a color document such as PDF/JPEG/PNG, adds a color shadow which makes the document appear blurry.
The scenario is for a given .PDF (provided), print it silently to the printer (no user action required), OR break it up into BMP,JPEG,PNG etc.., paginate through this list of files AND send each image to the printer separately (no user action required).
Getting desperate!
Best Regards,
Kelly

  • Java Applet - Printing Pdf Files

    Hi
    Can anyone suggest me some libraries to print pdfs using Java Applets. I have tried using the SmartJPrint library but its giving me error when I try printing pdfs using applets.
    Thanks
    nikhil

    SmartJPrint web applets have changed recently and works to be fine every time. You might try these links for printing of existing pdf, pdf viewing, pdf print, pdf silent printing from a command line or silently printing a pdf from a browser page.

    Demo that print a PDF from a browser page silently.
    [This demo printing control parameters as part of the PDF url. Interestingly this pdf print demo from browser works for a remote PDF URL that dynamically generate a PDF and then prints to the printer. In this demo you have the option to enter your URL that is either a PDF or a PDF generating URL that eventually generates a PDF and then prints.]

  • [JS CS3 Win] Export to PDF then auto-print PDF from Acrobat

    Hello!
    I am working on the script that is exporting pages to PDF, and would like to automatically send exported PDF to print from Acrobat.
    I get the scripting part for exporting to PDF, and it's working very well, but I have trouble on the part of the script that tells Acrobat to open the PDF and send it to printer. Script is run from InDesign, so I thought this is right forum to ask.
    The following part of the script is working OK on one computer, but on other two computers with similar configuration (CS3. Windows, Acrobat 8) it doesn't work at all and I can't figure out where is the problem:
    var printFile = "/c/temp/test.pdf";
    var remoteScript = "printFile = decodeURI('"+printFile+"');\n";
    remoteScript += "var doc = app.openDoc({cPath: printFile});\n";
    remoteScript += "var pp = doc.getPrintParams();\n";
    remoteScript += "pp.pageHandling = pp.constants.handling.shrink;\n";
    remoteScript += "pp.NumCopies = 2;\n";
    remoteScript += "pp.interactive = pp.constants.interactionLevel.silent;\n";
    remoteScript += "pp.printerName = '\\\\hrhqzgw23prn01\\\hr300019ps';\n";
    remoteScript += "doc.print(pp);\n";
    remoteScript += "doc.closeDoc(true);";
    acrobat.executeScript(remoteScript);
    I would appreciate any help. thank you.

    Hi Mark,
    Here is a sample script. It exports the active InDesign document to pdf file, using its base name, to the root of C drive. Then opens the exported file in Acrobat, prints it to the default printer and silently closes it.
    Tested on InDesign 5.0.3, Acrobat 8.0.0, Windows XP SP3.
    #target indesign
    var myIndesignDoc = app.activeDocument;
    var myBaseName = GetFileNameOnly(myIndesignDoc.name);
    var myFile = new File( "/C/" + myBaseName + ".pdf" );
    myIndesignDoc.exportFile( ExportFormat.pdfType, myFile, false );
    var myScript = 'var myAcrobatDoc = app.openDoc( "/C/' + myBaseName + '.pdf" );\n';
    myScript += 'myAcrobatDoc.print( {bUI: false, bSilent: true} );\n';
    myScript += 'myAcrobatDoc.closeDoc( true );';
    var bt = new BridgeTalk;
    bt.target = "acrobat";
    bt.body = myScript;
    bt.send();
    function GetFileNameOnly(myFileName) {
        var myString = "";
        var myResult = myFileName.lastIndexOf(".");
        if (myResult == -1) {
            myString = myFileName;
        else {
            myString = myFileName.substr(0, myResult);
        return myString;
    Short explanation of the acrobat script:
    1. Open the pdf file, just exported from InDesign
    var myAcrobatDoc = app.openDoc( "/C/' + myBaseName + '.pdf" );
    2. To print the document silently I use the doc object’s print method and set the following parameters:
    bUI -- Determines whether to present a user interface to the user
    bSilent -- Suppresses the Cancel dialog box while the document is printed
    myAcrobatDoc.print( {bUI: false, bSilent: true} );
    3. Close the document without notifying the user:
    myAcrobatDoc.closeDoc( true );
    Regards,
    Kasyan

  • Printing PDF's in Java

    Hi,
    I am in the process of trying to silently print PDFs via java in a Windows NT 4.0 environment. The solution so far has been to convert then into postscript files using pdftops (co/ xpdf) and then simply send the postscript file to the printer using the java PrintService.
    Which would work fine except for the fact that I need to print envelopes (DL and C4) (not a problem but for the fact that some of the printers only have Postscript Level 2 Emulation and don�t recognize the fact that an envelope is being printed).
    And I need to be able to print to a specific (i.e. default) tray on a network printer, and using the java PrintService uses the wrong tray.
    Tried using JPedal and JPrint, and the get past the tray problem but haven�t tried them with the envelopes yet � can�t see that being a problem though.
    Big question is does anybody have experience with print files from java to a specific tray on a network printer.
    Thanks

    Acrobat 5.0 when I open a pdf on my system.
    This is exactly the code currently in my program.
    I just ran it again to test it and it works.
    1) The application has an ugly square gray box on the screen while printing.
    2) The Acrobat reader starts on the task bar.
    3) For the application to continue I have to expand the reader and close it myself.
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
      String selectedDocument = SelectedDocument();
      if (selectedDocument != null) {
        try {
          String command = "C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Acrobat 5.0\\Reader\\AcroRd32.exe /t "+selectedDocument+" \\\\CONTROL\\HP LaserJet 4L";
          Runtime rn = Runtime.getRuntime();
          Process process = rn.exec(command);
          process.waitFor();
        catch (Exception pEX) {showSystemError("Unable to print document.", selectedDocument, pEX, false);}
    }It is not what I wanted to do - I wanted to do the print
    internally in the program.

  • How can I save to the same map every time when printing pdfs?

    How can I save to the same map every time when printing pdfs?
    Finder points to the document map even when I chose a different map recently.
    I often print series of pdfs from the print dialog box, I'd like to choose the map to save to and then have all subsequent pdf prints automatically directed to the same map until I decide otherwise.

    that link seems to be broken right now:

  • Printing PDF forms to an impact printer

    Greetings,
    I hope I've found the correct forum for this question.
    We are having difficulty printing PDF forms to an impact printer.  We are required by regulations to print to multi-part forms from our GTS landscape, which is going live soon.  Since Adobe is the direction SAP is headed with forms, we have been utilizing ADS.  However, the need for impact printing has presented a problem.  Has anyone utilized PDF printing to an impact printer?  I'll list some details in case it will help.
    Printer: Lexmark Forms Printer 2590
    Backend Print Solution: HP Output Server on AIX
    SAP GTS: NetWeaver 7.0 SP17 w/ SLL-LEG 720 SP7
    Our printer has printer languages of Epson Emulation and Personal Printer Data Stream (PPDS).  Neither of these are included in the standard device types for PDF as specified in OSS Note 685571.  I do not see an appropriate XDC file to copy and modify.
    Has anyone else run into this issue and found a resolution?
    Many thanks for your assistance.
    Wesley Tollett

    the PortName should be changed accordingly.
    if you are using printer port , commonly lpt1, you should change it to lpt1
    ur command line could work , i think
    i've tried it locally in my machine, it works fine.

  • Issue printing PDF Packages

    I'm having issues printing PDF Packages.Clients have contacted us stating that our PDF Packages don't print properly. Essentially they were only able to print the "coversheet" and nothing else. I ran some test scenarios and noted that PDF Packages print feature behaved differently depending on several criterias:
    how it was viewed (ie: desktop, Firefox browser, IE browser)
    what Adobe Reader Plugin
    what command was used to access print feature (ie: file>print, ctrl + P, print icon)
    So far I've noticed that Adobe Reader utilizes two versions of the Print Dialog Box. The first one shows four choices for "Print Range" (All, Current View, Current Page, Pages...) seems to always be misconfigured and does not print as intended. The second one I've noticed seems to limit your Print Range choices (All, Current View) which usually works.
    This seems to be an Adobe bug. This Print Bug exists on both Acrobat 8 and 9, and the bug may or may not exist depending on how you view the "PDF Package" (ie: Desktop, Firefox, IE).
    If you open the PDF Package on your desktop and view via Adobe Reader for the most part it prints as expected for "Print Current Documents" or "Print All Documents". Although the "Print Range" is misaligned (ie: "Print All" behaves as "Current View", "Current View" behaves as "Current Page".
    If you open the PDF Package on a browser with an Adobe Reader plugin, a different scenario occurs.
    You might experience that you're locked into printing only the "coversheet" of the PDF Package.
    And again your "Print Range" might be misaligned.
    In Adobe Reader 8, a dropdown appeared when you selected "File>Print" or the "Print Icon". The dropdown then gave you an option to "Print Current Documents" or "Print All Documents". Which basically provided you an option to print the entire "PDF Package" or choose to print only a section of the "PDF Package".
    In Adobe Reader 9, the option to choose between "Print Current Documents" or "Print All Documents" was removed.
    In fact I started to document the instances to see if its an isolated issue and it looks like it fails to print (as intended) 60% of the time. Of the 40% that does print as intended... it looks like half the time the "Print Range" is misconfigured.
    Also, I've noticed that Reader utilizes two different "Print Dialog" boxes.
    The testing scenario I set up was that you can print in three different ways:
        1. File>Print
        2. <ctrl + P>
        3. <print icon>
    Three ways to view the PDF package:
        1. Download PDF Package & view on your desktop via Adobe Reader
        2. View PDF Package on Firefox w/ Adobe Reader plugin
        3. View PDF Package on Internet Explored  w/ Adobe Reader plugin
    My computer is using:
    XP Pro SP3,  Acrobat Reader 9
    I've also spot tested on:
    XP Pro SP3, Acrobat Reader 8
    Vista, Acrobat Reader 8
    Any Ideas?

    Hi Greg,
    Since this is sytem defined settings that you are trying to implement, I presume that the INI changes ought to be done in FSISYS.INI rather than the FSIUSER.INI.
    Apart from that most of your INI changes look fine as we are also using pdf as our Output type. Please find the INI change swe have implemented in our system for printing pdf.

  • Report Rendering (Print & PDF) trashes report that looks fine on screen

    Since installing SQL Server 2012 SP2 CU3 (11.0.5556) a number of reports look fine on screen but when printed or exported to PDF the format is totally altered so that either many blank lines are inserted between lines, or lines are squashed together. It
    doesn't affect all reports. Reports (both affected and not affected) use Tablix with both Row Groups and Column Groups. There is no obvious consistency between those reports that are affected.
    All of our SQL Server instances are hosted on VM-Ware virtual servers.
    I've raised the issue via Microsoft Connect: https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/1063641/report-rendering-print-pdf-trashes-report-that-looks-fine-on-screen
    Any thoughts or workarounds? Is this a bug?
    Thanks!

  • How do I view and print pdf files

    I am using FireFox ver 12 on a Mac and can not view or print pdf documents. I have installed PDF Viewer 0.2.5 plugin but it does not appear to work.

    I disabled the PDF Viewer plug-in and set my Application preference to use Adobe Reader for pdf files. All is working fine now.

  • Printing PDF report directly to printer, not using orarrp utility

    The orarrp utility works only with Windows machines and it
    requires installation on both the client machines and servers to
    support. We need a more general solution.
    Adobe has a java application/applet/javabean (and support
    classes) to view PDF, and it is easy to write a java driver
    which can be used in place of the orarrp utility. However,
    Adobe's Java Viewer is extremely slow, does not produce quality
    output, and is explicitly not supported by Adobe.
    My question then relates to Reports. When the Report server
    returns a PDF in the Previewer, I'm expecting the JINITIATOR,
    used by Forms, is also used to support the Report frame and
    functionality, including eventual printing. If this is the case,
    is there not a set of classes, downloaded with Jinitiator, which
    support the fonts, and printing of PDF to locally attached
    printers?
    And if so, shouldn't we, in Java, be able to make use of these
    classes and their APIs to print PDF files directly to locally
    attached printers without the need for Previewing first?

    within a forms trigger:
    1. generate the report
    2. copy from iAS to local
    like: webutil_file_transfer.url_to_client()
    3. print.exe /d:printer filename (for windows OS)
