Question
I want to implement pdf printing from windows machine to Linux. I am using CUPS pdf in linux and driver installation in Windows.
Furthermore, I want to pass some custom parameters with printing like Full name of sender, receiver name, mobile No: to send SMS as Pdf reached etc. (I will use a custom print dialog to fetch these parameters with pint dialog.) How do I pass these along with the printing? How I can I handle this in linux side? What is the easy method for that?
I'm not good in PostScript or Ghostscript. If thats the only solution then I will try. Any alternate solution to pass custom variables from windows to linux printer also welcome.
La solution
I didn't get exact help for this , but I achieved this one by 2 printing. Initially printed custom parameters with reference of the next document. Then printed next document. Linux side parsed pdf using shell scripts.
