Re: ZPL And Fedex Carton Labels

I can offer this... I made an application that allows you to print to any
printer set up as a Google Cloud Printer. It's a Google Cloud Print addon
for our Greentools for Google Apps.

This means you can use a simple command to send a file from the IFS (or a
URL) to be printed. PDF, DOC, HTML, etc... it doesn't matter the type and
the printer doesn't have to be PDF ready. The printer just needs to be set
up under a Google account as available for Google Cloud Print.

Here are the docs:
http://docs.bvstools.com/home/greentools-for-google-apps/docs/addon-library/g4ggcp

Google lists it here as an accepted solution:
https://www.google.com/cloudprint/learn/apps.html

You can download and try it for free from here:
www.bvstools.com/g4g.html

Just an option rather than trying to fight with code samples. I'm happy to
help with testing, trials, etc as always!

I can generate a PDF from ZPL. So how can I print 2 or 3 PDF's combined
on one 8 x 14 paper size?

I'm trying to use AFPRSC to get one PDF to print but I'm priinting on my
laser printer with blanks. Does anyone have a simple example that

prints a

PDF that is in /tmp or a similar IFS directory?

Trying to figure out if I need IBM AFP Utilities.

Thanks

Have you asked Fed-Ex if they can send back something besides ZPL?

When you Fedex servers to rate and ship your cartons, Fedex returns

raw

ZPL

(Zebra programming language) that we then send to Zebra type label
printers.

This works fine when we want to print the label alone. We are trying

to

create a form that can print on a laser printer that includes the

fedex

label and other information. So I need to take the ZPL and print

along

with other information.

Has anyone successfully interpreted the ZPL and printed labels on

other

printers, or use some process to take the ZPL and create a PDF that

can

be

used as a page segment?

Our 8 x 14 laser printed page would have 3 sections......
