I gave you the command... acroread accepts -toPostScript for argument ( you see that as working in batch mode: You are not asking acroread to open as a GUI since you only want it to convert a file...)

Thanks for your help. Right now cannot print any pdf as there will be no one in office.Tomorrow will try to print and if required any help will bug you again:$

I have to prepare another system in which I have to do pdf printing so could you please share packages (gs, pdf2ps, acrobatereader) with steps so that I can configure the system. Once again thanks for your help

Regards

Hi
I send a print job with following command it only prints one page with information about my account and does not print anything else, as the command is completed it gives following error

Code:

/usr/sfw/bin/acroread -toPostScript < /<e12692.pdf>.pdf | lp -d hplasterjet5500pcl6
hplasterjet5500pcl6: temporary-error

Could you pls tell what is issue and why its not printing all pages

Regard

You should not include "<>" enclosing the filename:

Code:

/usr/sfw/bin/acroread -toPostScript < e12692.pdf | lp -d hplasterjet5500pcl6

Thanks its working fine now really appreciated your support
