You did not mention the platform you want to print, nor if you want to print on the client side or server side. If you want to print on the server side, you may want to take a look at this IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) client class that can be used to print HTML documents on Windows and Linux (with CUPS). http://www.phpclasses.org/printipp -- Regards, Manuel Lemos Metastorage - Data object relational mapping layer generator http://www.metastorage.net/ PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
