Click to expand...

I'd use ShellExecute. This will dispatch the printing task to Word,
Excel, Acrobat or whatever application associated with the file type.

Process printJob = new Process();
printJob.StartInfo.FileName = "FILENAME HERE";
printJob.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = true;
printJob.StartInfo.Verb = "print";
printJob.Start();

Good luck,

Koen.
 
Any chance of being able to specify the print setting?

Also, images only support the "printto" verb and I am not sure how to
use it. Where can i find more infomation on the available parameters?

thanks
