Printing an inserted pdf within filemaker...

Hi

If I insert a pdf into filemaker I want to print page 1 & 2 without going to acrobat, unless I can script it to do something like the following...

This is required to work on WINDOWS (working on a mac also is a plus)

Example without acrobat...

1)Print this PDF Script

2)Print all pages of inserted pdf file.

3)Update "Number Of Times Printed" Field to +1.

Example with acrobat reader...

1)Print this PDF Script

2)Open file in Acrobat

3)No user interaction print all pages and close acrobat.

4)Return to Filemaker

5)Update "Number Of Times Printed" Field to +1.

Thats the basics, I need to print a pdf file contained within my database (all pages) and track how many times it has been printed.

HELP would be much appreciated. Thankyou
