Hi all I'm working on a project where the database holds the paths to a collection of pdfs which are technical specs for products. Each product can have several spec documents. The routine I'm trying to figure is when the customer prints the pdfs from my app they need to print their order number into a specific place, at the bottom right hand corner. I think the Ricoh 250 is a PCL printer which follows the HP LJ4 standard. Back in my Clipper 5 days (showing my age now...) used to be able to: - set device to print set printer on ? chr(27)+.... && whatever the codes where to initialise the printer ? chr(27)+.... && start overlay ? chr(27)+.... && go to a specific X,Y coordinate on the page ? "Tech Document for Order: "+m.order_no ? chr(27)+... && end overlay run copy 1.pdf lpt1: ? chr(27)+.... && warm boot the printer. set printer off set device to screen I can't remember the codes for this, would anyone happen to have any resources for printing overlays or know of a better way to do this. Regards Graham
