hi,

is there a way to only allow silent printing.

we have a web app that stores a file in appdata temp and then prints it.

using reader dc.

I prefer not to lessen the security of reader.

Also, if setting the privilege location to c:\users  <-- would that basically allow any pdf to be unprotected from standalone, email or web?

Thanks.

fixed spelling.

I think silent printing is itself a security exposure. (Consider a malicious web site that used it to print adverts).
