Do you know any way to do that? Yes and no. It is possible to embed Javascript in a PDF that will print the document as soon as it opens. See page 79 of the Acrobat JavaScript Scripting Guide at http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/acrobat/sdk/AcroJSGuide.pdf. This could easily be accomplished through DDX from Livecycle. Unfortunately the CFPDF tag that lets you use DDX with PDF files doesn't have the Javascript element enabled (see the livedocs on CFPDF for the list of enabled elements). Too bad, it would've been a pretty sweet solution. On the other hand, if your client happens to have the LiveCycle Server installed then you could probably access it from the Java API for LiveCycle. -- Howard Fore, [EMAIL PROTECTED] "The universe tends toward maximum irony.
