Yes, we can dictate the software. This printing will be done on
remote sites and will not be accessible to the public - only to
internal personnel.
I have already developed a solution based on
http://www.meadroid.com/scriptx/
It's an active x control that runs on the client side and allows me
to control the paper width, footer headers and page setup of the
document to be printed.
Since it's activex a requirement is using IE4 or higher.
What I do is display the text file in a browser window with the
appropriate page breaks (using CSS) and make a call to the print
funciton on the onload event.
However, I am very welcome to other ideas.
Many Thanks for responding.
