Hello. I noticed that it is possible to import pdf files into a container field as a quicktime sequence. It then allows to use the Quicktime buttons to navigate through the pages of the pdf document. Really nice to allow users to view the pdf content. But I was wondering if it would be possible to allow users to print the same pdf document from FMPro, without having to export the pdf file from the container to their computer, then opening it and printing it from Acrobat.

Any idea or all-made solution is welcome.

Thanks.

Hello again.

I managed to find a way to be able to open pdf files embedded into containers fields from within FMPro. It only works on Mac because I'm using some Applescript.

It works wherever you put your FMPro file, but I didn't test it with the file hosted on a FMPro server.

Any improvement is welcome.

Cheers,

Pierre
