WordML Support

Hey,

This is a great program, works brilliantly!!

I was wondering if it's possible to print out a WordML format file as a PDF using PDFCreator?

I have a Word template which after getting processed in a java process, ends up as an edited WordML file. Once thats done I want to print a PDF version of the file without the need to open Word, etc. Is this possible?

It works if I open the WordML file in Word, then print through PDFCreator, but I want to do it "silently" and open the PDF to the user, or print direct to their printer.

I'm guessing I'm asking a bit much, but thought it was worth asking anyway. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd sure appreciate it.

Thanks!

> Silent print of word documents ...
If you find an application that can silent print word documents (shell command "print") than it is possible.

Wow! Thanks for responding so quickly. I'll do a search to see if I can find something like that then.

Cheers!

I'm probably being thick, but I can open a shell through Java and run the print command, but how do I call the PDFCreator code from this?

Thanks in advance

PDFCreator has a big com interface. Take a look at the help file and the com samples "PDFCreator\COM\Samples".
