Get Save Dialog Info from PDF Printer
Oct 15 2010 8:50 AM
I want to automatically launch the Acrobat Reader when a PDF print image file is created from my app. I see that the Windows Save Dialog Control is launched and has boxes labeled 'File name:' and 'Save as type:'. File name has an entry with the .pdf extension. Save as type has an entry of PDF files.
I cannot seem to find the way to reference the Control and one of these properties in this context. I have a work around using the PrinterSettings but it makes some assumptions that are not very strict. PrinterSettings or other properties I have tried do not seem to include the Save Dialog box properties.
What I do now is use the PrinterName and Search it for strings:
if
(pd.PrinterSettings.PrinterName.ToString().ToUpper().Contains(
"PDF"
)
|| (pd.PrinterSettings.PrinterName.ToString().ToUpper().Contains(
"ADOBE"
)))
{
Process.Start(PDFfile);
}
Not too elegant or complete.
What I would like to do is something like:
if (PDFSaved)
{
...
}
Is there a way to find a property that will lead to setting a boolean for PDFSaved based on the Save Dialog box.
Tks.
