Printing a PDF from VFP9

I would like to print an existing pdf file from within VFP 9. That file has
no variable data, so I suspect REPORT FORM is useless. How can I print the
pdf file?

Hi WPa:

Do you have Adobe Acrobat reader on the machine or are you using some other
third-party tool, like PDF995, to render the PDF?


I hope this helps.

I use XFRX from eqeus.com, where I can generate a pdf from a VFP report.
Problem is, I want to append to that generated Fox report an existing pdf
file.

I am looking for a product in that area. Can you use it with ?
and set printer output?

Do you know of any other VFP-to-PDF systems?

Gene,
the XFRX is quite simple to use, it is also quite cheap (USD 139 a year). I
am a newbie to VFP, but anyhow, I could implement the frx to pdf solution
quite straight away. You can print to pdf, rtf, xls, etc.The web link is
www.eqeus.com.

I do not use .frx reports. Mine are all coded. Can XFRX handle
them?
