RJS Software has a utility that allows you to print PDF's natively to a
laser.

RE: Auto generate bunch of .PDF prints ?






Do you have a laser printer that can process PDF files directly? Many
of the newer laser printers offer native support for PDF, PCL, and
PostScript. If your printer can handle it, you can simply dump the raw
PDF file to the printer device, and it prints. Since the PDFs are
stored on a PC server, you could access them through the IFS QNTC file
system.

I used a little utility that Scott Klement wrote called PRTSTMF. It
accepts a stream file path and an OutQ destination, then dumps the
stream file to the printer. Worked great to print .pcl files we
received from an external host.

Subject: Auto generate bunch of .PDF prints ?

Greetings,

A user has asked me if there is a way to grab of simple LIST of part
numbers from our system (related to daily shop order releases), and
automatically go and get the .pdf part drawing printed for each part# in
the list.

We already have an search index on the system, and all of the drawings,
e.g., partnumber1.pdf , stored out on a PC server. We use a net.data
macro to call up one at a time, which then opens in Acrobat Reader, and
then we print if needed.

This user wants a seamless procedure where each part number in the daily
file will produce its related drawing w/o user intervention.

TIA,
Don C.
