Re: Printing pdf data from teh AS/400

One option would be to use Google Cloud Print.

If you set up any printer using Google Cloud Print you could use our
GreenTools for Google Apps (G4G) with the Google Cloud Print Addon to print
the PDF file to pretty much any printer that is set up in Google Cloud
Print.

Not only can you send the PDF file from the IFS to the printer using this
method you can use a URL for the PDF location as well.

You can check out more info at www.bvstools.com/g4g.html.

Hi Alan,

If you're interested in native PDF printing, let me know and I'll put you
in touch with our sales team.

We have a PDF and TIFF utilities component that can print PDF documents

to

regular HP laser printers from the IFS.

subject: Printing pdf data from teh AS/400

Hi everyone
Hope you had a really merry Christmas, and hope you have a really great
New Year Before I forget - because I generally do, we are on V5r4

We are in the process of using a new courier, and part of that process is
to receive data from the courier, via web services, decode it from Base64
and unzip the data We seem to have this working The end result is that we
have 2 sets of data One is for labels - which we have printed, and the
second is pdf files I have searched the internet on how to print pdf

files

from the AS/400 - with no success I have been told that it's the printers
we are printing to I have also been told that we need to load some

software

onto the AS/400 to convert FROM pdf to some other format

Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Do we need new printers? If so - which type?
Do we need software? If so - what?

I can (hopefully) answer any questions that needs to be asked
