Then a fortiori: what counts is the number of pixels, they will print it
at the resolution they need,
depending on the printer they have, no matter what's in the image.
This was my point.

Yeah I should've known better than to use the word "printer" to refer to
a print house. Oh well, we all make mistakes ;)

Would the generated PDF with print ready? In other words, even if I am using a
300 dpi jpeg image as the background, use cfdocument to create a PDF, at what
resolution is it distilled at? I had heard 96 dpi which is n't high enough for
print...

I worked on a bank check site one time where we used ASPImage from CF to
genereate an image of a check with your personal information on it...
It's simple and there are several utilities out there to do it.

I've done this FROM cf, but using perl to create a ps file, convert
that to a jpg and return them via cfcontent.
I've also used cf to write the postscript directly, and used
ghostscript to convert it to a pdf and to a tif (for printing and
viewing respectively)

What exactly is this
For what little I saw with a few moments of testing. There is nothing special
here. Some well laid out forms and layers. What is it you think is special
(maybe I didn't try it).

To add to the reasons given why this isn't particularly reliable, many ISPs now use rotating IPs during the same connection. AOL is the most often cited offender, with oftentimes each page request in a single session coming from a different IP, but they by no means are the only ones doing it.
The
CGI.REMOTE_ADDRESS (I think - I'd have to look it up to be absolutely sure).
However, do not expect this to be 100% reliable. The reported IP address
can be a proxy server's address, or may not be reported at all (depending on
the browser).
