docx outside of word from a template with a PHP program and just need to convert it to PDF retaining all formatting.
I tried using osascript = AppleScript = which works but is spotty - it does not always trigger. I have tried the usual MS Office equivalent (OpenOffice and LibreOffice) which both work but the generated PDF layout is so far from that generated by Word that it is shamefully unacceptable. I have tried OPEN which OPENS MS Word but I see no 'print' option for open. I have tried lpr, which only appears to work with straight text files. Perfect! Now what is the BASH command equivalent of that? docx file to select and then select print from the file menu it opens MS Word (2011 is installed) and prints the file to the spool (via CUPS) in PDF format. It does not happen in the same printer (Brother 3170CDW) with a non CUPS driver (airprint) or BRScript). It just happens with PDF printed fromAcrobat DC or Acrobat 11.
i can print these PDF with Preview in this printer and any other kind of file. The background is this is on Snow Leopard Server with CUPS-PDF as the default printer. Just printing PDFs from Acrobat to a CUPS printer. I have an application need to print a MS Word.
