Print PDFs from Dreamweaver using Javascript

I need to print several PDF'S from a coldfusion application.
I understand that you can use Javascript if you need to print
several pdfs in sequence. Do you know of a script that will
print several documents ?

When you select print from the menu bar a print
window opens. Verify that the correct printer is
selected. Adobe will over ride some defaults and put
in itself. Let me know if this didn't work.
Thanks Glynn, but the correct printer is indeed selected. This is a weird one!
FWIW, here is my CUPS error log:

Error when print report from apex using apex listener 2

Hi
Apex 4.2
I want print report to pdf from apex using apex listener 2.
The print server 'Oracle APEX listener' has been defined at the instance-level.
ACL has been configured.
I attempt to download a report in PDF mode, it appears that it downloads,
but when I go to open it up I get an error that the file is of the wrong type or possibly corrupt.
Upon opening the file in Text editor, there is an error as below
%PDF-1.4
1 瀛楄妭鐨?UTF-8 搴忓垪鐨勫瓧鑺?1 鏃犳晥銆?

If you use Windows the user that runs the reports server is usually LocalSystem. Check this in the Windows Services panel.
LocalSystem has no printer access. To be able to print, you have to use a real domain user that has access to the printer. So, change the Log on properties in the Services panel.

Create a PDF from webpage using entire site option doesn't works

OK, guys, this is the problem...
After YEARS of testing from Acrpbat 4 thru 9 on Create a PDF from webpage using entire site option... it doesn't works properly and doesn't got the entire site. ALWAYS get an error of memory or any other error but FINALLY you NEVER got the entire site. I'm talking for a big website... not like amazon.com, but a big one.
I make a walkarround to try to capture the website in parts but Acrobat is not "intelligent" to make a resume capture of the site, because ALWAYS start from the begining instead from the resume position of the site...
My question is, HOW can get the ENTIRE SITE in a PDF document... without getting errors or stopping the capture process...
Don't have problem of low RAM memory because I'm in a MONSTER MACINTOSH.... 3.2 GHZ with 8 Core and 32 GB of RAM under Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.6 in Acrobat 9 Pro.
If I'm not wrong, the GET ENTIRE SITE option in Web Capture (Create a PDF from webpage using entire site option) doesn't works from Acrobat 4 thru 9 in Pro version... tested, you'll never got the entire site... I'm talking in capture a huge entire site and not a little one...
Can someone help me?
Thanks.

Ok so I go to a web page and select something to print. Once I've clicked print I switch over from printer/micosoft xps docu writer/fax and select Adobe PDF. All goes through with a 'Create Adobe PDF' coming up progressing through to eventually save and store. Once I open the file it end up as the picture above. I have the same version on another computer and that works fine but this particular Sony laptop it doesn't seem to work properly.

Print pdf from ValueLine

Ver 11 says plug-in doesn't work; Ver 10 worked fine
Further information: tried to print pdf from this site; error message says can't do plug-in. Just downloaded fresh Ver. 11 today and accepted conditions. Help, please!

I'm using Win.7.1, trying to download Acrobat Reader 11, reaching it from
AOL 9.7 . I can't download online pdfs from multiple on-line resources
(e.g., ValueLine and your own Adobe site). After I've de-installed the Reader
11 and started fresh, here's what I see: The installation file appears in
my AOL download file. My Norton Internet Security says its safe, and I
double click on it. (I never get to the warning dialog - presumably because
Norton has already vetted the install file.) When I go back to the download
file, open it and click on Finish, the installation file disappears. I
never get to step 3 of the installation. I don't have a functioning Reader
XI, either.

HELP! Why can't I print PDFs from my applications?

For over a year I've used Adobe Pro to "print" PDFs from AutoCAD LT (a drafting program). This allows me to perform design/drafting services for long distance clients and email them PDF "prints" of drawings for them to review, print, and use. It has worked beautifully...until this week. Now whenever I go to print a PDF from AutoCAD (or even other Windows applicacations like Word) it gives me an error telling me to change the Advanced printer preferences to "print directly to printer". When I go into the Adobe printer preferences and select this option. and return to print the PDF, selecting the print command causes AutoCAD to hang indefinitely and eventually crash when I try to cancel the print command. This behavor is the same inside other Windows applications like Word. So I've concluded that the issue is inside Adobe or my computer's Adobe "printer" settings. I've spent 5-6 hours unistalling a reinstalling Adobe several times in hopes to get back to whatever settings that worked before...to no success.
The last piece to the puzzles is that I was on vacation last week. Instead of the desktop computer in my office that I typically use, I took my old laptop. I only have one license of Adobe Pro. Even though I hadn't used it for months on the laptop, it worked fine creating PDFs from AutoCAD. My question is: did using Adobe on my laptop deactivate the Adobe loaded on my desktop? And if so, why hasn't deactivating and uninstalling the Adobe Pro on my laptop, and unistalling/reinstalling/activating the Adobe Pro on my desktop, fixed the problem?
I'm at my wits' end...any feedback/advice would be much appreciated!

In WORD (Sorry I don't have Autocad), can you go to the FILE>Print and print to the Adobe PDF printer with no problem? If not, can you select print-to-file and then open the file in Distiller to complete the conversion? If the latter works, it sounds like you may have disabled AcroTray, a necessary part of the printing process.

I don't think Epson has developed an XDC for ESC/P language. That would be very difficult/long to develop an XDC from scratch. Best solution is to install a new printer. Otherwise you may either use a Printer Description Language converter (PS to ESC/P, or other ones), it probably exists, or call acrord32 in print mode on a Windows frontend or server.

Problems when trying to make pdf from ps using distiller

Hi,
I'm using Adobe Design Standard CS4 and I'm trying to make a PDF from Indesign, using Distiller. I made a ps and when I opened it in Distiller the pages were cut, as if the sizes were smaller than those set in Indesign. But I did modify in jobs the dimensions so that they would be the same as those from Indesign. I thought at first that maybe the ps was badly made, but when opened in Photoshop it displayed the same sizes as those in Indesign. Any suggestions?

Bob's answer will certainly work, and those are usually fine settings, but you may want to know more about the what and why of export settings.
Conversion is handled in the dialog in the output panel under, of all places, the "Color Conversion" field. You have three choices: No conversion (self explanatory, and if you've got everything in the correct space to start with a good choice), and two flavors of "Convert to destination," Preserve Numbers and Preserve Appearance, which have subtle, but major, differences. The target profile is selected in the next field below.
In the case of either one, anything RGB will get converted to CMYK if you pick a CMYK target profile (and vice versa if you pick a RGB profile). The difference is in what happens to objects that are already using the color model, but not the specific profile, of the destination.
When you preserve numbers a CMYK object in ISO coated with values of 25,38,40,10 can be converted to SWOP with the same numbers. You can expect slight shifts in color appearance this way (of course, there are also MANY RGB colors that can't be reproduced using CMYK inks at all, so you'll pretty much always get some shifting in RGB to CMYK conversions).
When you preserve appearance the numbers used to represent the colors are altered so the output looks the same on both devices.
You might think this is superior, but there is a glitch. What happens to solid black (100% K only)? If you've set type in InDesign you probably colored it with the [Black] swatch. If you pick preserve numbers, you type stays 100% K and will continue to overprint, and your pressman will be happy. If you pick preserve appearance, one of two things will happen: If the document working profile is the same as the target profile, there will be no change and everyone is happy. If the profile is different, your simple black type will become a four-color mix that has the same visual appearance (when in perfect register) in the target space, and now it no longer overprints and is separated onto 4 plates, and your pressman is cursing you.
This will happen with anything that is just a single process ink, but generally speaking this isn't an issue for the other three colors if you are printing them anyway. It might be a problem for one-color hairlines or small type, though, so you should at least be aware of the potential.
So, the bottom line is you should assign the correct output profile as the CMYK working space in your document, if you know it in advance. If not, make your best guess and consider re-assigning the working space before exporting to PDF if you guess wrong. Any conversion from one profile to another is going to have some sort of consequences and it's up to you to choose the best answer based on the particular circumstances of your file.

I have installed Lion and have problems to print PDF from prewiev.

I have installed Lion and have problems to print PDF from prewiev. When trying to print Prewiev locks. Anyone out there with the same problem?

Hello David and Nicole
I just installed Lion on my iMac, which was purchased in 2007, and I cannot print from Preview; it keeps locking up and not responding. So, I have to force quit Preview. I have been sending error reports to Apple. I suggest everyone who has this problem, send error reports!
I can print from other applications, like Pages, with my Canon Laserjet. I do not think it is a printer issue becasue I can print in other application.
I took your advice and installed Adobe reader. Now I can print pdf's.
Thanks

I am afraid you cannot make your scenario work if there is no XDC provided. Maybe you can create one, but I don´t know how difficult that can be or how to do that. Maybe you can get more help under ABAP > Form printing where there are guys experienced with this printing details. Regards, Otto

Print pdf from another frame in IE via javascript

I am responsible for a little web application. There we have 2 frames. In one frame is an pdf-file, this frame is not visible for the user. In the other frame is an button. By clicking the button the pdf-file should be printed.
The onclick event handler of the button looks like that:
parent.pdf.focus();
parent.pdf.print();
This works with firefox with all acrobat reader versions and IE up to acrobat reader version 6. But there is a problem with IE an adobe reader plugin version 7 and 8. In this constellation the user is presented the normal printing dialog of the IE and not the printing dialog of the adobe reader plugin.
Is there any workaround to solve the problem.
Pressing the print-button of the adobe reader plugin is no solution because the frame with the pdf-file is not visible for the user.
Thanks a lot

iText creates PDFs, but it doesn't print PDFs. I'll look at gsprint; hopefully, it'll do what I need it to do. I do have the luxury of knowing that all users will have a version of Acrobat Reader, so it's too bad I can't kick off a process. The best I could do is kick the process off using Acrobat Reader to open the file and then print from the menu. This won't work since I need a way to ask for type pdf and have windows use the version registered, not the version hardcoded.
For example,
Process pr=null;
String arr[] = {"C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Acrobat 5.0\\Reader\\AcroRd32.exe",tmpf.getPath()};
try {
pr = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(arr);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
//Handle the exception
I tried using AcroRd32.exe, but it failed in finding it. Anyway, this would be last resort, since the user wants to press a Print button and grab it from the printer. I looked at the Java Print API (we are still on 1.2.2.008, so it'll be end of year before making the leap to 1.4) and it's worse than getting a root canal without novacaine.

Problem printing PDF from BPM Studio ?

I'm using JasperReports to try to print a PDF from BPM Studio 10.3.2
I have tried many ways but always get the same problem:
Caused by: com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter.setRgbTransparencyBlending(Z)V
Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter.setRgbTransparencyBlending(Z)V
I added all the needed jars as external resources and catalog them as Java components.
Anyone dealed with this issue before?
Thanks in advance!

ps: sorry for my english, but isn't my native language.

Actually, Word 2013 supports opening of PDF files and creating Word documents from same. The problem is that for anything other than very simple PDF files, the conversion is wonky at best!
The popup mentioned by “bannerman” is definitely not an Adobe Reader message, but possibly an annotation of something generated by JavaScript.

Print PDF from Forms

Hi
I wonder if anyone can help. We're running Forms 10.1.2.30 against an Oracle 10.1.0.5.0 database using IE8 on Windows XP and Windows 7 clients.
We generate utility bills using Oracle Reports. These work fine at the moment as we print these reports directly to the printer from Reports. However, we now need to perform some post processing to the bills so I would like to produce the bill to a PDF, perform some post processing and then send the PDFs to the printer on batch.
Does anyone have any tips on how to send the PDFs to a printer on batch? I can host it out to Acrobat using the undocumented/unsupported /t option, but I would rather not rely on third party software (especially undocumented/unsupported features).
I've found a link to the Oracle Forms PJC/BEAN - PDF Project, but I cannot download the file. Something to do with the download site been seized by the FBI!
https://sites.google.com/site/jvrpdfproject/version-1-5-2-english
Thanks in advance.
Neil

Hi.
What mechanism do you use now to send a PDF to printer? Do you have each printer defined on middleware (application server) or you download pdf from application server an print it localy?
Best Regards
Gregor
