this might be what you are looking for:

 

public void print() throws UnsupportedFormatException

{

save("./tmp.pdf");

 

try

{

String osName = System.getProperty("os.name");

 

//FOR WINDOWS 95 AND 98 USE COMMAND.COM

if (osName.equals("Windows 95") || osName.equals("Windows 98"))

{

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("command.com /C start acrord32 /p " + "./tmp.pdf");

}

 

//FOR WINDOWS NT/XP/2000 USE CMD.EXE

else

{

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd.exe /C Start acrord32 /p " + "./tmp.pdf");

}

}

catch (IOException IOE)

{

JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, IOE.getMessage(), "RuntimeException", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);

}

}
