help with lp command with do shell script

[Drew Sanderson]

This applescript works great:

tell application "FileMaker Pro Advanced"

set img_URL to cell "zz__web_ImgPath_CertImg__lct" of current record

do shell script "cd /Applications/Cert_Print; curl -m 1 -fO " & img_URL

end tell

tell application "FileMaker Pro Advanced"

set img_path to cell "zz_local_cert_path" of current record

do shell script "lp" & img_path

end tell

Problem I am having is that I would like the image that is downloaded to be fit to the size of the page when printed. I saw the -o option and fitplot but can't seem to make it work. Any ideas or help would be really appreciated.

Thanks,

Drew

You could resize the image, using the sips command.

I found a little more documentation that might help related to fit plot

"This feature depends upon an accurate size in the print file. If no size is given in the file, the page may be scaled incorrectly!"

Great advise Fenton:

Here is the new script

tell application "FileMaker Pro Advanced"

set img_URL to cell "zz__web_ImgPath_CertImg__lct" of current record

do shell script "cd /Applications/Cert_Print; curl -m 1 -fO " & img_URL

end tell

tell application "FileMaker Pro Advanced"

set img_path to cell "zz_local_cert_path" of current record

do shell script "sips --resampleWidth 2250 " & img_path

do shell script "lp -o fitplot " & img_path

end tell

The fitplot is probably not neede at this point but it can't hurt.

Thanks,

Drew
