Print Dialog

New Here ,
Aug 15, 2013 Aug 15, 2013

I know that somebody asked this question a few years ago and got no replies.

Is there any way to programmatically call up the print dialog?  Or is there some sort of "send keys" function similar to the corel vba?

Sorry for using the "C" word on an Adobe forum

Are you just trying to print a file using a script? What OS?

If you actually want to open the dialog… Have you tried to call the menu item… It has a default quick key send that… ( requires > CS6 )

Yes. I just need to open the dialog.

Can you show how to call the menu item?

Ok, I figured it out from this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1036899?

To call up the print dialog this works:

app.executeMenuCommand('Print');
