If you want this done consistently, look for a CLI method to consistently force the papersize and orientation. Then add that into the commandline part for the menu option. I can't help you with that part as I don't have that particular requirement. Both Adobe Reader as well as the printer itself are capable of printing PDFs I want on paper. -- Joost -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail. Please excuse my brevity.
