Hi All,
How do I print PDF files from the Solaris command line? I have acroread and ghostscript installed. I get garbage characters when I print using the 'lp' command. I don't want to print as postscript as we need to print this out to a dot matrix printer.

Thanks in advance.

Unfortunatly a dot matrix printer can not print a .pdf file. I have heard of pdf2txt converters and Adobe has a pdf to text service.
