Hi all,

We want to create a web form where someone can upload a PDF and it will 
be printed to a print queue hosted off of a Windows 2008 print server. I 
did a proof of concept on the back end (assuming the PDF has already 
been uploaded), I used the Windows LPR command line tool but when I sent 
the PDF to the printer it printed out a ton of garbage pages.  I guess I 
am missing the piece the print driver usually takes care of, converting 
the document to a printer-friendly language. Does anyone know of a way 
from the command line to process a document so it can be sent to the 
print queue and be interpreted correctly?

Thanks
