Historically, I haven't been able to print from within Java because I
must be able to turn duplex on and off and specify a source paper tray
(one has paper, one has labels, and different jobs go to each). I
never got that to work except via lpr. Though, it's probably been a
couple years since I tried because the current system works. :)
Duplex is like this:
PrinterJob job = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
job.setPageable(new PDFPageable(document));
PrintRequestAttributeSet pras = new
HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
pras.add(Sides.TWO_SIDED_LONG_EDGE);
if (job.printDialog(pras))
{
setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
try
{
job.print(pras);
}
finally
{
setCursor(Cursor.getDefaultCursor());
}
}
tray is more tricky, see e.g.

I'll try the snapshot and code change when I get a chance.
Thanks,

Hi,
The current version is 2.0.13. Did you try with that one? Also try with
a 2.0.14 snapshot
https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/snapshots/org/apache/pdfbox/pdfbox-app/2.0.14-SNAPSHOT/
and please share the source file, and modify the code so that the fifth
parameter of
PDPageContentStream() is true.
Consider printing from PDFBox itself.

I have a PDF workflow where I take a base document with forms, then
append a footer that puts values in the form fields and save the
result, then open it with PDFBox and flatten it:
doc = PDDocument.load(tempFile);
doc.getDocumentCatalog().getAcroForm().flatten();
Then I add an image to the page and save and close the doc:
PDPage page = doc.getPage(0);
PDImageXObject image = LosslessFactory.createFromImage(doc,
toBufferedImage(generateBarcode("PC"+pcId)));
PDPageContentStream contentStream = new PDPageContentStream(doc, page,
PDPageContentStream.AppendMode.APPEND, true);
contentStream.drawImage(image, 246, 36 );
contentStream.close();
doc.save(tempFile);
doc.close();
Finally, I print it from the command line. With PDFBox 2.0.5 the
resulting document prints fine. I'm using this command on macOS:
/usr/bin/lpr -P TestPrinter -o InputSlot=Tray2 file.pdf
With PDFBox 2.0.11 when I do the same, the form fields all come
through as empty on the printout. (They do appear when I open the doc
in Preview.)
I don't really know why; I just tried updating to the latest on a
lark. It feels like the flattening failed on 2.0.11. The printer is
a bit dated and I think I went with flattening in the first place
because that was the only way to get the doc to print correctly from
the command line.
I will stick with 2.0.5 for now because for this case it's critical
that the printouts work. :)
Thanks,
Aaron
