Printing pdf from within webpage
problem
some sites embed PDF documents in a page and provide printing through javascript that should open/ trigger os print dialog
the printing dialog that opens is defekt on different levels: it is different from the OS dialog, it does not display multiple pages, the output is wrong, as page title is added to the output.
I am not sure where to go to for help. The issue is known and can be found in some stack overflow questions, like:
iPad: How to print a pdf in an iframe in javascript - Stack Overflow
javascript - Force print dialog in mobile Safari for multi page PDF - Stack Overflow
The iPad is the best tablet around and the one I am always suggesting to my customers. Not being able to properly do something as easy as printing an PDF from an javascript application is a huge show-stopper.
