Hello,
I have some rather heavy stuff that have been converted to a more friendly pdf
file
I have also created a print button in my fla file in Flash.
How do I set it up so when you press the print button, it opens the standard
printer dialog window or download the file and open the pdf file so the client
can decide what do do with it?? or something similar to that.

I know that there is a "print" function in the action library but I just can't
make it work
The Pdf File is in a different scene that when a press the print button it
goes to it with no problem.

on (release) {
_root.gotoAndPlay("Scene12", 1);
}



I will really, really, really, appreciate some of your could take me through
the procedure.

Regards

PDF File created in Quark Xpress 7 and sits within the Flash project

You are better off simply linking to the PDF from the Flash, using getURL or
another like function, so that the PDF opens in Adobe Reader. Adobe Reader
handles the printing for you automatically, and Flash printing is not what it
should be.
