[thelist] Printing a document

[Jim Williamson]

Josh,
Thanks for the suggestion.  To clarify...we are developing Web-based
Training and want to simulate one of our applications.  On a particular
screen the student will be asked to click the print button in the simulated
environment.  At this point we don't want a screen print, but need to have a
pre-defined file printed out.

Thanks

Jim
