Help! Cant print PDF's without this I am doomed!!!

I need to print PDF's to a bluetooth printer...i have tried printboy but it reformats my document and it is essentially unuseable...i tried clearview and the PDF is not visible unless I bring it into active sync first to allow it to create tags on the PDF.
Adobe Reader 2.0 for Pocket PC. I can view the document but the print button it greyed. What gives?
I would be fine with IR printing but it fails every time I fire a document.
Oh I have the Verizon 6700 version of the Wizard.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help I have been searching on and off for a week and it is driving me insane....

did you try following program?
JETCET PRINT
http://www.westtek.com/pocketpc/jetcet/

Yes i tried that software. I also tried it along with the Clearvue Pro. When I try to view the PDF in Clearvue it is blank. If I bring the same PDF in via Active Sync then it mentions that the PDF is untagged and if I would like it to attempt to tag. Once I run it through this I can see it and print.
The problem with this is that people in the field will be using this and they wont have access to Active Sync. They have to download the PDF and print on the fly.

Did you try using the adobe ppc pdf reader instead of clearvue? I think it is free. Also I think HP has some printer software/drivers. Dont know if it will work but worth a try.

Yes, I have tried Adobe Acrobat also the print button is greyed. I am trying to figure out how to activate it and have been on ADOBE's site in the forums but no one seems to know...also I tried to get the HP drivers but cant find them anymore. They say something on the site about discontinuing the drivers after Oct of 2005 or something.
If anyone has an idea how I can ungrey that print button or get the HP drivers it would be great. I can view my PDF perfect in ADOBE I just cant print.
Thanks again i really apreciate any help and I really need to get this working!

here is a link to download the hp mobile printing 4.0
http://www.pocket4you.com/freeware/index.php?vypis=jedno&id=199
Hope it works for you.

Great! I am downloading now. Thanks a million I will let you know how it works out!

hp mobile printing won't work because you're running WM5.
You may want to try this. It's expensive, but it may work for you. It has a 15 day trial period too.

Ok well I installed it but it doesn't seem to install properly. It gives me an error that it may not work properly because it was designed for a previous version of Windows Mobile. I am of course using Windows Mobile 5.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Any idea how I can get the "Print" button in ADOBE Reader for Pocket PC 2.0 active?

Weatheryoko,
I tried the bachmansoftware solution it is what I called Printboy. It does actually print but the problem is that its sends it somewhere forst where it converts the PDF. When it comes back down and I print it it completely reformats it all out of sequence. It doesn't "Paint" the way I had the report layed out...
I sent them an email this morning to ask them if they could pint me in the right direction as to how it performs this conversion and maybe that will give me insite on how to re-write my report so that the conversion wouldn't affect the content layout so drastically.
Haven't gotten any feedback as of yet from them

On the adobe site it says it works with bluetooth hp printers. Did you try to turn the bluetooth on the wizard on and pair it to the printer? Maybe you can pair the printer and phone using jetcet? Anyways these are some suggestions to try if you already havent. Good luck.

Yeah actually the funny thing is that I am using an HP 450 bluetooth printer...I can the jetcet application comes bundled with Clearvue professional (thats the only way it will print PDF as jetcet by itself doesnt see the PDF's) problem is when I open the PDF in Clearvue it looks blank...
I think it has to do with the fact it is an untagged PDF...
If i take the same PDF and bring it into the handheld using Active Sync it is tagged I can see it and print it...
It is super irritating that Microsoft didn't build native printing functionality into Windows Mobile to begin with...
I am still struggling with this...

WM5, PIE and Java Plugins, is this my best choice >

Firstly Java plugin for Wm5/PIE..is this my only choice, do you guys have it : http://www.nsicom.com/Default.aspx?tabid=138
Q: How come desktop version if free ( via SUN), and pocket pc is not ??
What about PIE/WM5 plugins for Macromedia and other internet browser tools. ? Is there a list of the usual suspect of WM5 /PIE plugins some where ?

thanks.
It works fine, but the only real application I would really need Java is a webmail using classes not included in this.
I already used jeode, same results.
It's here:
http://www.cs.unc.edu/~lindsey/7ds/notes/jeode/
Waiting for Netront 3.3, the full version should mount also a Java plugin.
It's still in beta on their website.

Thanks for the link, but I cant find any link to download the file, please advise.
Standard web browser plugins required are : java, adobe, macromedia.
I went to Net Front website, but there is no conformation that it works on WM5 or HTC Universal products.

If I'm not wrong, Jeode was an Insignia product (www.insignia.com) and now it's Esmertec.
You can buy it at handango:

Please read also customers' comments here:
http://compaq.handango.com/Platform...Type=2&productId=48776&sectionId=0&catalog=30
About Netfront, search on this forum. It definitely works, you can download a trial version here:

at the bottom of the page.
It's a trial, and Java isn't yet available, but it will be in the commercial version (it should be delivered soon).

[REQ] Anroid Bar Scan for Windows Mobile

Hello all!
I was wondering if anyone knew if the app called Bar Scan ( or something like that) for android has been released for Windows Mobile? The app allows one to scan bar codes(I believe via the camera) and search for better prices online using the SKU number.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

hi!
there is a free program called i-nigma that uses the camera, but it's a scanner for QR Code and Data Matrix
look at this http://www.i-nigma.com/personal/Default.asp
bye

Quickmark http://www.quickmark.com.tw/En/basic/index.asp is a very fast 2d code scanner. But it looks like there isn't any 1d barcode scanner available for wm devices.

Hello again!
Thank you for your suggestions, they both look very promising and I will have to look into both of them!!
Thanks again, Best Regards.

i dont think any of those are what he is looking for...

I had ported ZXing barcode library (google it) from java to C# .net a couple months ago (when I was prototyping a barcode app) but I haven't really tried it yet. An easier way for .NET developers might be to try using the ZXing just as it is via J#.

This would be awesome, but unfortunately, it won't let me complete a purchase. My IMEI has 2 alpha characters in it, and they want 15 numbers, even though it's made for the Touch Diamond. Bummer.

Do a search in the forum for barcorama, it works on my fuze.

Thanks for the tip! It works, although not nearly as well at capturing as QuickMark, but it will do for now.

Here's barcorama

thank you darkness!

I tried both, i-nigma freezes my diamond to, quickmark works on 2D-Codes. But is there a program to read the bar codes on all the things from the supermarket? I think, that's only the number under the bar code.
CU, dc7os

what its good for ?

Yah what's the point of reading a barcode?

I use quickmark with QR-Codes. I make my own V-Card and every quickmark user and/or N95 (Barcode) user can scan my QR Code and save it @ a new contact with all important informations about me and my company
In Asia is it a normal way 2 swap contact data and hear in germany find u an QR-Code on all mail near the stamp.

Try Barcorama...

barcode reader

Hello you all!!!
touch2 does not have autofocus like iphone, but iphone can read 1D barcodes and touch2 can not read them.
i guess it's a matter of software algorithm to sharpen the image maybe.
what's a working app to read 1D and 2D barcodes to you all???
Thanx
