Question

I am currently using the below code for printing a pdf using Foxit Reader software. Now my problem is I want to print multiple copies of a file. Could anyone let me know how to specify the number of copies while printing a pdf in the below code.

[Edit]
I dont want to use a loop to print multiple copies of pdf. I want to specify it only as a command line argument.

Any help much appreciated 🙂

Process process = new System.Diagnostics.Process();
process.EnableRaisingEvents = false;
process.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
process.StartInfo.FileName = foxitReaderInstalledPath;
string arguments = String.Format(@"-t ""{0}"" ""{1}""", this.Path, printerName);
process.StartInfo.Arguments = arguments;
process.Start();
process.WaitForExit();

According to the Foxit manual there is no option to do what you want except with a loop (which you don’t want to use).

Either you use some PDF library for .NET -there are plenty free and commercial ones out there (see for example .NET library to print PDF files )- or you use for example Acrobat reader for printing (IIRC it has a commandline switch to achieve what you want)…
