If Adobe Reader is installed, you can use the commandline or a batch file to
tell Adobe Reader to print the PDF file.

<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/619158/adobe-reader-command-line-reference>
To open a file it's:
AcroRd32.exe <filename>
The following switches are available:
- /n - Launch a new instance of Reader ever if one is already open
- /s - Don't show the splash screen
- /o - Don't show the open file dialog
- /h - Open as a minimized window
- /p <filename> - Open and go straight to the print dialog
- /t <filename> <printername> <drivername> <portname> - Print the file
the specified printer.

Hi all,<br>
<br>
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 upload=
ed), I used the Windows LPR command line tool but when I sent the PDF to th=
e printer it printed out a ton of garbage pages. =A0I guess I am missing th=
e 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 lin=
e to process a document so it can be sent to the print queue and be interpr=
eted correctly?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
