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
