This is off list because I hate to make a fool of myself in public. :)

Ha Ha, you're caught ;-)

Here's one more idea. If the maps were saved as .svg files, rather than .pdf files, then the browser's print functions would work. You wouldn't have to use Adobe Reader to print. Just evoke window.print() via JavaScript.

I read that Adobe Illustrator has an option to save as an .svg file. There are tutorials that show how to create maps using Illustrator. By chance, was Illustrator used to create the .pdf files?

I'm quite fascinated by .svg files. View the source for the following, and click the browser print option.
