View 4 RepliesOk, this is a function that used to work...so I didn't check it for a while...and I did not edit it from when it was working in any way...but now the print function does not produce a page from the printer...when I click "Print View" the print dialog box comes up, and I can choose my printer, and when I click ok, there is a tooltip near the windows clock that says document sent to printer, but the printer never does anything...I have tested this in several printers and several computers...I have also tried to output to a pdf...and it allows me to choose a file name to save to but it never creates the file...

Code:
printButton.onRelease = function()

View 1 Repliesprinting directly to a Photo ID Card printer in a web browser?I have a web application that manages user data, photo, and so forth. I'd like to add a Print ID Card feature to it. The web application is a single page javascript application that talks to a RESTful web service via JSON. I'd like to display what the printed card will look like on both the front and back for approval before the user clicks the print button.
Generate front and back JPG or PNG images to print on the server, send them to the client for display and approval, and then somehow send the images to the printer.Use javascript with SVG or Canvas to display the card to print in the UI for approval, then somehow send the SVG/canvas data to the printer.Generate a PDF and print the PDF to the printer.Use Flash to display and print Use a Java applet to display and print Something else?

View 3 RepliesI am trying to make a print button that will print the contents of a mc...this mc basically holds a dynamically drawn floorplan which can be zoomed and panned...I want to be able to print the contents of the mc, and only what is viewable in the mc at the time of the print...so if you are zoomed in, all that prints are the actual objects visibly seen in the mc...I think it may be with the print command using bmovie but I have no idea how to assign a #b lable to the frame.

I am not able to print more than 5 pages in one go. I want to print almost 12 pages in one print job. I am creating the movieclips of each page by adding the dynamic data in to it and store in an array. When all the movieclips created and stored in an array(pagesAry) then it call the following function to print those pages:
private function sendToPrinter():void
{
pj = new PrintJob();
try

Getting error: Print job canceled as it took more than 15 seconds to complete.
how do you set a print button so that it does no show up in the print out?
View 1 RepliesI've been building an AIR application in AS3 which includes a number of drawing tools, allowing the user to annotate a page with freehand drawings, lines, text etc. I'm almost done and everything tests well on my dev computer but testing on an old XP machine crashed every time I tried to print. Eventually I realised this was due to a mass of data being sent to the printer which that poor old XP machine just couldn't handle. All I'm doing is creating a new printJob with printAsBitmap set to true, and using addPage to add the MC I want to print.
When I look at the windows print jobs dialog I see it's sending 1.68Gb of data to the print spooler! I figured that there must be too much in the MC so I create a bitmapData of the same size and copy it to a bitmap, then add that to a blank MC and send that to the printer - same problem! The MC is 2480x3508 which equates to 300dpi on A4 paper. By my calculations that should be a bitmap of around 33Mb, so where is all the other data coming from.
Here's my PHP Code:
var myPrintJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
var result:Boolean = myPrintJob.start();
var options:PrintJobOptions = new PrintJobOptions();
options.printAsBitmap = true;
var thisRect:Rectangle = new Rectangle(0, 0, 2480, 3508);
myPrintJob.addPage(printTemplate, thisRect, options);
PrintTemplate is a simple MC containing a single bitmap. Both the bitmap and the printTemplate object are 2480x3508 pixels.
I've created a print button. I now want to have it sent to the printer a picture that is in my .fla file. What is the best way to achieve this?

I'm trying to programmatically print a movie clip to 8.5" x 11" plain paper regardless of the current paper size setting in the printer. e.g if the user's printer is currently set to use paper size A4, can I change the setting to Letter (8.5" x 11") from ActionScript at runtime? I use PrintJob class for printing the movieclip. According to the ActionScript online API spec [URL], I can only READ the paper size setting after the call to PrintJob.start. I can't believe that we are not allowed to change the setting.

View 1 RepliesI need direct-to-printer functionality for my website, with the ability to distinguish a physical printer from a virtual printer (file).has this functionality via a native binary which must be installed by the user. I'd prefer to avoid thatI dug through that Java APIs a bit, and don't see anything that would let you determine physical vs virtual, except looking at the name (that seems prone to misidentification). It would be nice to be able to do it in Java, because I already know how to write Java applets. Failing that, is there a way to do this in Flash or Silverlight?
View 3 RepliesA client needs a standard consumer color printer for printing name badges from my flash app. Last time we used the app, I couldn't do any pre-testing of their computer and printer beforehand. So, of course, the margins were completely wrong when the time came to print. Ideally, I'll have the flash app's bugs worked out for the next run, but for safety's sake does anyone know of a printer that has good controls for custom margins and offsets, in case some minor adjustments are needed?

View 1 RepliesI was wondering if it would be possible to use copyPixel to create a simple text printer for example you have a font as an image like this
[URL] then have some code that will transform your text ="hello world" into HELLO WORLD on your flash screen, but written in that font.
Because the font is spaced equally you could have the source x and y, times by 16pixels for each letter and move the Y source down 16 pixels when it reaches the right side of the image
I am working on an Adobe AIR (2.0) application that contains a feature to allow users to print documents (such as salary slips). Those documents are originally in PDF format. Due to circumstances we cannot directly display those PDFs in the AIR application (for example using flash.html.HTMLLoader). Therefore we convert the PDFs to SWFs (using the pdf2swf tool, see The SWFs are loaded into the application using a mx.controls.SWFLoader, like so:
<mx:SWFLoader
