I wanted the eprint UI to appear directly by selecting the Print Preview or the Print Button from my application. Do you provide any API to implement it or is there any workflow that should be done. Can you please reply to this query ASAP. Thanks Rachel    Report

Are you using the ePrint API or just the standard end-user version? At which point are you combining each page into a single page?  Are you trying to use ePrint to do this or are you doing this in your application and then wanting to send that single page to ePrint?

The required workflow From my application I will select 4-up-printing and also the printer in which i wanted to print. I want the ePrint to do all the printing without showing the UI to the enduser and print 4 pages in a single sheet. Step6 should be neglected. Also if i select 4-up-printing and press Print Preview button I wanted the ePrint UI to appear with out any option which is available in the ePrint it should be exactly like Print Preview Window. Can you let me know how to implement the required workflow in our application? Thanks Rachel    Report

You could do this with LEADTOOLS by using the L_CombineBitmap (API, there should be an equivalent function in each interface) function to "paste" each individual page onto a large blank image that is the size of all four pages "stitched" together.  Once you've created it, then you could print it to ePrint if you wanted.
