The user doesn't want to use the print dialog. They want it all to happen from the click of a button

What do you want to print to a file.
Is it text in textboxes?
Is it records retrieved from a database?
Could you specifi?

I have a vb app that takes data that is entered by a user, writes the data entered to a PDF file. I want to be able to print that PDF file to any printer on the server. I am trying the CopyFile command. this works, somewhat, it prints where i direct it to. The only problem is the PDF file is not coming out. Just some jibberish gets printed on the top of the page. I was figuring if i could print to file, then direct that to the printer i choose it might work....any suggestions otherwise?

Sorry I don't have any experience with PDF files. I will look in to it but for now I don't have any answers.
Perhaps later
