Print PDF file

Ashu_bhatt

Hi All,

I need a solution to print pdf file which is already imported as a blob in navision. There can be mulilple pdf files which can print at a time (default printer).

I have done my investigation and came across some wonderful solution like

Root := Filename
SHELL('"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe"',' /p /h ',Root);

but the problem with this solution is that if another client has acrobat 8 installed it won't work. I am using window Vista


Thanks for you help

Is acrobat 8 installed in another folder?

Ashu_bhatt

no another NAV client has different version of Adobe which is 8

you can put this instruction in a batch file where you can change it on each client pc.
from navision you will only run the batch file.
is this feasable for you ??

Ashu_bhatt

Yes, if you like to share code O:)

Where do you put this code? OnPostReport? How can I print reports from navision using this code? I am always getting error message

There was an error opening this document. This file cannot be found.

Or should we export report into some file before printing it to pdf? But then your code has only ouput file name, not input.
