For one of my client-server applications, I need to serve the pdf document 
from the servlet both for viewing and printing. As far as rendering to the 
requested browser , there is no problem. But for printing, we have to send 
the document to client's printer. To do this I was thinking whether we can 
do the following:

1. I will have a java program that will send the http request for generating 
PDF.
2. Java servlets will generate the PDF document and return the pdf to the 
calling client program instead of displaying it in the browser.
3. From the client java program , I will initiate a process that launches 
Acrobat reader to print this document with a /p command that will display 
the printer list and allow the docuemnt to be printed upon selecting the 
local printer.

If this is the right way to do it, can someone help me in getting the java 
sample code to do this?
Thanks
