[iText-questions] JavaScript (Silent Print) not working with Adobe
 Reader 8.0

Hey guys,

Last year I used iText (obviously) and some nice javascript to
implement Silent Print (On Click of a button, the document gets
printed, without the user having to view the document. The script
(described below) executes when the document is opened (The object tag
which displays the pdf has 0 height and 0 width and so the document is
invisible to the user)

It's a very simple piece of javascript and worked well with Adobe 7.x.
We tried it in version 8.x and it does not work. Here is the
javascript. Any ideas?

PdfStamper stamp = new PdfStamper(reader, bos);
stamp.addJavaScript(  "this.print({bUI: true,bSilent:
false,bShrinkToFit: true});"
+ "\r\n"
+ "this.closeDoc();");
stamp.close();

thanks
