I am retrieving a pdf file from a database blob field. I want to be
able to print it out on a printer now. There doesn't seem to be a way
to do this. I've seen the RawPrinterHelper class on MSDN but it
doesn't work with pdf's since they are in postscript and not RAW
format. Also the pdf.ocx print method requires you to load a pdf from
disk, which I'm not doing here. I've also tried the ShellExecute
method but once again it requires the pdf to be loaded from the disk.
I've looked at a ton of third party controls but none of them handle
printing in this way, they all require you to load from the disk first
or they only spit out pdfs for you and its up to you to handle
printing them.
Thanks
