How do I determine the spoolfile of a printjob?

Hi,

Can someone help me with this problem? I need to find out what the
corresponding .spl file is of a printjob in
order to do some scanning on it. I've noticed that the .spl file follows
this convention, XXXXX.spl where XXXXX is
the jobID prefixed with zero's to 5 characters before the dot.
Can I rely on this to determine the spoolfile?
Any help much appreciated.

Greetz,

This *was* reliable. For Win XP and 2003 the default is FPXXXXX.spl where
FP stands for File Pooling and they will reuse a file. I have found that if
you "Keep Printed Documents" on 1 queue then the naming scheme goes back to
using the jobID.
