Printing PDFs to iSeries Printers

Hey Everyone,

I've done some searching in the list + some googling and have yet to find
something to fit my needs.

Here's what I need to accomplish:

1. Read a multipage tiff in from the IFS and break it apart into separate
pages
2. Develop a web app that let's the user rearrange the pages + add a cover
sheet.
3. Print the cover sheet + pages in the new ordering to a iSeries printer
(Preferably from the PDF generated in the next step, but I could print the
cover page (to a spool) + print the TIFF images one at a time.)
4. Save the cover sheet + pages to a PDF.

I have no problem with 1,2 and 4.  However I can't figure out how to
accomplish #3.

I have WASE 5.1 running on V5R3.  I can create some sort of service program
to accomplish the printing if Java 1.4 is necessary, but I'd prefer to
accomplish this in Java1.3.

Is there some sort of Java toolbox class to help me with this?

Any Ideas are MUCH appreciated.


Thanks,

Jim McLean
