I am trying to print very simple HTML file using JAVA PrintServices API.
This is what I wrote for that -
public class WebTest {
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
String filename = "C:/tmp/PrintTest.html";
PrintRequestAttributeSet pras = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
DocFlavor flavor = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.AUTOSENSE;
PrintService defaultService = PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService();
if (defaultService != null) {
DocPrintJob job = defaultService.createPrintJob();
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(filename);
DocAttributeSet das = new HashDocAttributeSet();
Doc doc = new SimpleDoc(fis, flavor, das);
job.print(doc, pras);
}
System.exit(0);
}
However, my output file is not formatted properly - This is what I see in printed output -
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h2>Hello World.</h2>
</body>
</html>
I want to see Output as -
Hello World.
I also tried using Microsoft command for this - "C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Office\\Office14\\msohtmed.exe\" /p C:/tmp/PrintTest.html
However its prompting me PRINT box which I want to get rid off.
My objective is just to get correctly printed output.
Please suggest suitable options.
I already referred other links, but couldn't find exact answer for what I am looking for.
Your help much appreciated.
The HTML page should be rendered before printing (calculate margins, arrange text on the page, etc...). The simplest way to render and print html page is by using
JEditorPane(in the following snippet without any additional formats, attributes and confirmation dialog):
