I cannot use the print dialog because I am running on a server (ie as a server-based application). The person requesting the operation is sitting somewhere on the LAN (or internet) away from the actual computer doing the work.

Unfortunately, we have the PDFConverter product.

Can you supply two snippets of code?

1. How do I print to a specific printer

2. In either C# or C++, how do I configure the printer to print to a file?

I will use Com-Interop to make this work.

I am using 2.10i

I have two PDFs that were generated by Crystal Reports that both open up individual fine. When I combine the two, I get errors indicating that there was a problem opening the PDF. There is an error about not being able to locate the font, using helvetica instead. Are there additional steps I need to...

What printer driver does this code use to print? If I use print-to-file, doesn't it just generate a PDF, by whatever name?

The whole point of printing via a regular printer driver is to ultimately end up in either PCL or Postscript...

That is why I am looking for a .net example of how to actually save the output of a printer to a file... I cannot seem to get it to work, even using PINVOKE to get to the Win32 api....

That is why I want to print to a printer and save it as a file. If I print to a PCL printer, but save it as a file, I have just converted the PDF to a PCL.

What I meant was I need to save the contents of the PDF as something other than a format that the PDf product supports (PCL for example).

I'd like to take the PDF and print it to a file. I understand how to select the printer, but I am not quite clear as to what point (or how to) actually set the printer's file name - I do not want the printer prompting for the file. I am using C#/.Net. Any pointers, or sample code would be great! Tha...

I should open each document before appending and insert a bookmark at the beginning of the PDF. That way when they are concatenated/appended together, the book marks would be present marking the start of each PDF?

Is there any sample code that would show how to put the book marks in between documents being appended together?

In appending arbitrary documents, how would I know where to place the bookmarks?

Are bookmarks preserved in the PDF Document being appended? Ie I have Doc1, and want to add Doc2... Doc2 has bookmarks... are they included in the combined document?

Can you update your example to show how to put bookmarks in the pDF file while appending? Also, how do you put a bookmark in for the first file in the group of files being concatenated together using this method.

Thanks,
John
