Thanks for the tip.  I was looking for a quick way to get the page count.  Obviously missed a very easy function call.  

BTW< tested and works perfectly.  I'll release my demo code shortly.

So do you want to print all pages in the document? I presume that's the case since any other option doesn't make sense from what you've described so far.

You have to include a start page and an end page, but this is simple. The start page is 1 and to get the end page you simply call QP.PageCount() which will return the total number of pages in the document as an int -- the total number of pages is equal to the last page in the document.

E.g. QP.PrintDocument(GetPrinterName, 1, QP.PageCount(), GetPrintOptions);

HTH!

I'm seconds away from purchasing a license as well as releasing a very standard ASPX example to the community with a very common usage situation:

Person views PDF on prior page
Person selects Printer name from drop down
PDF prints on next page with a "ajax style animated gif" while it prints.

One problem.  I'm printing the PDF using the active x PrintDocument call from this page:

 http://www.quickpdflibrary.com/help/quickpdf/PrintDocument.php

Unfortunately it requires page number information.  My use case is that 100% of the time the pageCount is never cared about or known.  

Is there a -1 or 0 or something that we can pass in as to not have to know about it?

Function QuickPDF0718.PDFLibrary::PrintDocument(PrinterName As String, 
  StartPage As Long, EndPage As Long, Options As Long) As Long
