    Direct Printing of Buffered PDF Content

    I have created formatted-PDF in Buffer. This PDF document have many
    images, lines, texts with underline-bold-italic.
    I put this buffer PDF contents to a variable. When I try to send the
    variable to printer using Printer Extension's
    funtions i.e. printer_open() & printer_write() , contents go for
    printing queue but not printing. But when I put
    simple text to the Printer_writer( ) function, it printed successfully.

    How can I send 'buffered PDF contents' to the printer. Please help me!

    Thanks

    You can't: printers can only understand plain text and their own printing
    language (whatever it is: PCL, postscript...). You probably have the same
    chance of finding a printer that can render PDF as finding one that plays
    MP3 files.
