Good day.
I have been attempting to use the "/t" command-line option in conjunction with the "printto" action for PDF files. Only one problem - when I use the command as the help screen indicates :
"foxitreader /t {PDF Filename} {Printer}"
I get the help screen again, as if an invalid option was specified, and nothing prints. Interestingly, if I remove the printer name, the print job goes to the default printer. Has anyone else gotten the /t option to work properly?
Thanks!

Hi,
The /p option use the default printer.
The /t option use the specific printer.

Does not seem to work for me either, i.e:-
"c:\program files\foxit software\foxit reader\foxit reader.exe" /t k:\informix\reports\custupdt\3370.pdf "\\SRVNTS01\HP LJ4 - NT"
Just comes up with the help screen indicating the format is invalid... The /p option works as expected.
Is there a bug here?
TIA.

Commmand line /t:
It works for me with Foxit Reader 2.1 but not with the newest version 2.2!
Is the command line still supported?

Yes I can confirm v2.1 works here with /t too, however we have discovered another problem. If a file contains a mixture of landscape/portrait pages and its printed using v2.1 with /t then all pages are printed in landscape! If the same file is printed interactively using the file/print menu option then it prints as expected...

Outstanding. I'll reinstall 2.1 on the test machine Monday and see if that fixes the Fax Server issue with PDFs. Thanks for the help!

What about the server 2003 x64?

No idea as I don't have that version to test with....
