Here is some VB code that I found on the web. Basically "AcroRd32.exe /t <filename> <printer> <print driver> <port>" There is a more simplier way of doing this, but I can't find the link right now. I think it is: "AcroRd32.exe /p <filename>" Sub PrintAPDFUsingTheFreeAcrobatReader() Dim strCommandLine As String Dim strPrinterName As String Dim strDriverName As String Dim strPortName As String Dim strFileNameToPrint As String strFileNameToPrint = "c:\temp\filetoprint.pdf" strPrinterName = Printer.DeviceName strDriverName = Printer.DriverName strPortName = Printer.Port ' Perform some error checking here strCommandLine = "c:\acrobat3\reader\AcroRd32.exe /t """ + _ strFileNameToPrint + """ """ + _ strPrinterName + """ """ + _ strDriverName + """ """ + _ strPortName + """" If (Shell(strCommandLine, vbHide) <> 0)Then MsgBox "Job has been sent to the printer using the command " + strCommandLine End If End Sub
