jds,
You can find a free PDF-viewer at http://blog.kowalczyk.info/software/sumatrapdf/index.html.
It can be used as a automated print instruction for PDF-files.
I recalled the executable to "PRINTPDF.EXE" to be used in my application.
The source I use is :
where dNameDoc contains the pathname of the PDF-file to be printed.
Good luck.

WAITRUN("..\UTILIT~1\PrintPDF.exe -Print-to-default -exit-on-print " + dNameDoc,1)Good luck.
