Hi Grant Edwards...
Your solution requires a previous installation of Acrobat. Internally,
the OS is sending the pdf file to the Acrobat PDF Driver and then it is
sent to the printer. So you have to have Acrobat installed. Don't you?
I want to avoid it installing a module that could do it (maybe I'm
dreaming:( ). If there's no solution, then I will be very sad :-S
This is what exactly I need to do:
Generate an invoice of 216cm width and 93cm height (1/3 of the height
of a letter paper size), and print it respecting these dimensions. So,
when I print this page on a dot matrix printer, it stops at those 93cm
of height for continuous printing.
What I tried:
I created a pdf file manually with these dimensions, and right-click on
the pdf file, and selected "print". It just work under Windows XP with
Acrobat Reader 7.0, but I want to do it from a Win98 as well.
Unfortunately, there's no Acrobat version under Win98 (the maximun is
5.1) that supports this kind of printing (what I had seen until now).
It prints, but the all paper at letter size :(
Any help? Any other tools? Any one like Cristal Report but for Python?
I heard that wxPython supports some kind of reporting, but I don't know
it. Anyone knows?
Daniel
