Hi,

i want to call the Reader from Notes with the Shell Command (the syntax is like VB), the printing should automatically start and the document should be closed.

When I use the option /p the Problem is:

If the Reader is started, a Document is open, the user is in the print-Dialog, then my program calls "shell acrord32.exe /p doc.pdf" the reader ignores this! (the same if i try this from a dos-box with "acrord32.exe /p doc.pdf"

If I take the option /n it works, but if I start the Reader 5 times I have 5 new instances of the it and they don't close after printing.

The option /t is unusable for me, because the user want's to select a printer ...

What can I do?

(sorry for my bad english ... I'm from germany)

kindly regards

Helge
