Hi Sam,
I have to agree with the other responses that if you want to "send the document
to a website" then a printer driver is not the way
to go.
However, if you would accept sending a "printed document to a website" then a
printer driver plus port monitor might work but it
would send the printout (SPL or XPS file) to the website. But not the original
document.
Do you have any other requirements or limitations like the applications that
this has to work with? Are you thinking that a printer
driver is pretty universal so it might work? What about saving the document to
a "watched folder" on the computer and then
uploading those documents?

Subject: [WinPrnDev] Creating a Printer Driver
Hello Everyone
I am trying to develop a printer driver which will be installed on a client
side, what i need this driver to do is just save the
path of documents sent to it to a string and forward that string to an ASP.NET
application which will upload the document to a print
server.
now i already have the upload client working so here is the scenario which the
printer will work on.
Document "X" is printed to a printer with the installed driver (Printer "A")
Printer "A" will then get the path of the given document and save it to string
"Path", "Path" will then be sent to a Webpage which
will upload it.
I kept it as basic as possible because i just want to know if it could be done?
Regards
Sam
