Hi John, I think what you

Hi John,

I think what you are facing is not a PDFInclude problem. You use PDFInclude to create a pdf file. You have to figure out a way to print it.

The solution depends on your environment. You will also have to send the PDF file through Acrobat in order for the document to be printed properly.

Print PDF from Unix

We have recently been successful in print a PDF file from Unix.

There is an utility called pdftops (PDF to Postscript) from http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/ (XPDF).
After converting to PS, it prints nicely using lp -d
