PDF Printing in FileMaker on Windows without PDF Reader

Just today on a visit at a client I added a new plugin function: DynaPDF.Print.

This function allows us to print a PDF documents directly. No need for opening the PDF file in Adobe Reader or other PDF applications.

The PDF pages are rastered and sent to the printer without a dialog. We can specify a couple of options including margins, color/gray/b&w and rotation/scaling. If needed we could add the option to show a dialog and control more print settings.

For OS X you can use PDFKit.Print for similar functionality. Claris FileMaker Plugin
