Print Any document file such as the doc, docx, jpg, pdf etc.using a C# code without opening these documents.

If you want to print document such as the doc, docx, pdf, jpeg etc. with C# code. Follow this Post.

Here I have to use the filedialog control of dot net framework for the file browsing purpose and add this namespace using System.Diagnostics and using ProcessStartInfo class i have to call the particular document file and print this file.

Using ProcessStartinfo Class we can call the external resources which is outside of dot net technology. Window based Application:=>Add opendialog control on Designer Form.



Add this code in Form.cs in : Add this code on the Browse Button Click For browsing file.

private void btnBrowse_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

   DialogResult dr = openFileDialog1.ShowDialog();

   string[] s = openFileDialog1.FileName.Split('.');

   if (dr.ToString() == "OK")

   {

        if (s.Length > 1)

        if (s[1] == "doc" || s[1] == "docx" || s[1] == "jpg")

        txtFileName.Text = openFileDialog1.FileName;

    else

     MessageBox.Show("Please select doc,docx,jpeg file !!");

 }

}
