This still doesn't say how to implement in BWS.

In the AutoPrint documentation there is the following discussion about RedMon Tokens that are available when printing to the port monitor. This should be the place to look if you want to pass the name of a file from BWS to PDFCreator to use when printing. RedMon Tokens All RedMon enviroment variables are also available as tokens in PDFCreator. These tokens are only available when you print a file. If you add a Postscript file to the print monitor the RedMon tokens are empty. Here is a list of the Redmon tokens available in PDFCreator: REDMON_DOCNAME: The name of the print job (e.g. "Printer Test Page"). REDMON_DOCNAME_FILE: If REDMON_DOCNAME consists of a file name, this variable will contain the file name. REDMON_DOCNAME_PATH: If REDMON_DOCNAME consists of a complete file name, this variable will contain the path name. If this variable is used for the directory, all files will be saved in the same directory as the printed file. Note: Only some applcations (as e.g. Autocad or Irfanview) are depositing the complete file name. That is why this token should not be set in blanket without pre-examine the application. REDMON_FILENAME: The file name of the output file. If it is prompted for, the filename is used. A temporary filename is used if a temporary file is sent to the printer. This variable is empty in PDFCreator if you use other programs with RedMon. REDMON_JOB: The job number, represented by a integer. REDMON_MACHINE: The name of the machine that created the job (e.g. "\\MyComputer"). REDMON_PORT: The port name. For a typical PDFCreator installation this variable reads, "PDFCREATOR:". Otherwise is it typically "RPT1:". REDMON_PRINTER: The name of the printer, typically "PDFCreator". REDMON_USER: The name of the user who owns the job (e.g. "JOHNDOE"). REDMON_SESSIONID: The session id of the Windows Terminal Server client session. This value will be zero if Windows Terminal Server is not used. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Lawrence, Mitchell Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2007 11:45 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Talk] Printing to PDF From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pat Zelenka Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2007 11:27 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Talk] Printing to PDF I use PDFCreator to print to PDF files. I have not used it as a printer device from BWS, but I don't know of any reason why it wouldn't work. It can be set up to be promptless [Mitch >>] Reading the website documentation, the program does this using something called "Tags". How would you incorporate this into a BWS script? and I have not had any problems sending a document to network folders. A virtual printer is created for use.

Specifically, I am interested in the prompt-less (without asking for filename) process you may use. And of course the product you are utilizing.
