Hello everyone,
I have a requirement to print one or more than one PDF document from a taskspace application. How can I do that??? A custom action?
Regards,
Mel
Printing is a function of native application (eg Adobe Reader) not Taskspace. What we have done in the past is to generated a "combined" pdf using a server method and then it was still up to the user to open the combined pdf to Print it to their default printer.
Just to add to what Johnny Gee wrote.
If the requirement is that the default application should NOT be launched then upon completion of the PDF concatination, you can launch the Java Applet print dialog (java.awt.print.PrinterJob). It accepts the com.sun.pdfview.PDFFile as an input and have the user select one of the local printers and print it
Hi Vadim,
Interesting concept. Is the Java applet already distributed with WDK/Taskspace or will the OP have to customize Taskspace to incorporate this applet?
Johnny
The applet has to be written and deployed along with customized taskspace and be incorporated into the custom jsp page(s).
It turned out not to be much of a hassle actually and the client seems pleased
