ASP.NET : How to download for printing ?

[Gilbert Tordeur]

Hello !

I am writing a VB2008 web application that generates a pdf file. This file
has to be downloaded by the user to print it on his printers. Of course he
can download it, open it, print it, close it and delete it.

Is there a way for the application to do that automatically, the user having
only to chose the printer ?

Thank you,
Gilbert

Nope. That type of action is strictly forbidden due to security
issues.
