link to pdf

I have a link to a pdf file which fires up in a new Window and launches Adobe
Reader. However, I want to make the page auto print. Just to make this
clear, the page does not open in a .htm/.asp but it just a link to a pdf
which opens in a _blank page.

How do I do this please?

Thanks,

s

Unfortunately, you can't make the page auto-print. You don't have any
control over that.

Hope this helps,

My research indicates it can't be done.
In any case, if it could, I personally wouldn't want you to have control of
my printing capabilities.

If could be done, what would happen if the user doesn't have a printer?
