Re: [hylafax-users] Virtual printer client



Try Redmon http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/redmon/ I believe Cypheus uses
this, and WHFC uses its own version of the same mechanism.

This would allow you to redirect the output of a windows printer driver
(like the Applewriter Postscript driver included in windows) to an
arbitrary program via its command line. As for feeding it to a URL, I'm
not sure. Allowing web pages automatic access to files on the client  is
usually considered a security risk, so your interface may still involve
the user manually selecting the generated file to upload. I've been
trying to figure out a way to setup a system similar to yours, so let us
know what you come up with.
