Displaying /printing a pdf file from website?

Hi,

I need to upload a form to my website, and then have a link or button to allow users to print it off.

The form doesnt change.

I cant quite work out how to do it so there are as few clicks for the user as possible.

Also not sure, if I put a link in via a text insert, how to reference the location of the file on the website.

What i would really like is it prints out as soon as the link is pressed, but I guess it is always going to stop at the print dialog stage if not before.

Does anyone have any pointers? I do feel I am being a bit dim about it!

If you simply upload a PDF form to a website, your users will need to download it in order to fill it. They will have to fill it on your local computer where you have no control over what is happening.

Maybe you should check PDFForms template:
