Print A Pdf

[Jack]

I'm trying to print pfd from java application
this is the code:

Code:

DocFlavor flavor = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.PDF;
PrintRequestAttributeSet aset = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
aset.add(MediaSizeName.ISO_A4);
aset.add(new Copies(1));

PrintService service = PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService();

DocPrintJob printJob = service.createPrintJob();
Doc doc = new SimpleDoc(filePDF,flavor,null)

try {
printJob.print(doc, aset);
} catch (PrintException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

but it doesn't work, can you help me?

I think that the api of sun isn't possible to print a pdf document directly.
(only txt)
If you have the openoffice installed, you can invoke to the print order directly from runtime

Hi jack, try this:

Code:

import java.awt.print.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.print.*;
import javax.print.attribute.*;
 

             DocFlavor flavor =  DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.AUTOSENSE;             
                       PrintService service = PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService(); 
                           
             if (service != null) {
          try {
          
       DocPrintJob job = service.createPrintJob(); 
        
      
       DocAttributeSet das = new HashDocAttributeSet();
       
 
      FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(destFileNamePdf);
      

      Doc doc = new SimpleDoc(fis,flavor,das); 
     try {
  
   job.print(doc,null);
