Print PDF Command Line Format

 

win2pdfd.exe printpdf "sourcefile" printername

win2pdfd.exe printpdf "sourcefile" printername startpage endpage

win2pdfd.exe printpdf "sourcefile" printername outputfile

win2pdfd.exe printpdf "sourcefile" printername trayname

 

Prints the PDF “sourcefile” to the specified printername, optionally including a startpage and endpage, or tray name.

 

Any file names that contain spaces must be enclosed with quotation marks. The "sourcefile" can be a local file path, or an web address (URL) to an existing PDF.

 

If the "trayname" is specified, it must match one of the existing tray names for the printer ("Tray 1", "Upper", "Lower", "Manual", etc.). If the tray name contains spaces, it must be enclosed with quotation marks. If the specified tray is not available for the printer, the available tray names are printed on the command line console.

 

The command line option that includes an outputfile is useful for re-rendering an existing PDF through the Win2PDF printer. The full path to the file name must be specified.

 

If your printer supports Direct PDF printing, the Command Line PDF Print Direct command line may be faster.

 

Returns 0 on success, and a Windows system error code on failure.
