Can PdfPrint use Adobe for Silent Printing? Print

  • 0

PrintWithAdobe method uses preinstalled Adobe Reader / Professional for silent printing.

It works for 32 and 64 bit processes. That method will not works in this cases:

·         in windows service / ASP.net service it will not work if installed version of Adobe Reader is higher than 9.5

·         Adobe Reader / Professional isn't already installed on computer where pdfprint library is used

 

Additional limitations with PrintWithAdobe method:

·         Orientation: auto doesn't work correctly in some cases if PDF document has different size pages. Orientation is determined based on first page which should be printed, so if some of the next pages needs different orientation than the first page to be printed than it will not work correctly for that page.

·         Scale: Fit to margins has same effect as Reduce to margins.

·         Option to enable / disable content centering isn't available. If Scale:None then it isn't centered. It Scale: Fit to margins or Reduce to margins than it is automatically centered.

·         Multiple page ranges to be printed aren't supported. It is supported for example 1-3 but isn't 1-3,4-6 or 1,2,3

·         Printing multiple documents as single printer job aren't supproted

It isn't possible to set Watermark on printed PDF document

·         Printing with default pdfprint engine doesn't have above limitations.
