title: Python print pdf file with win32print
body: <p>I'm trying to print a pdf file from Python with module <code>win32print</code> but the only way I can print success is a text.</p>
  
  <pre><code>hPrinter = win32print.OpenPrinter("\\\\Server\Printer")
  filename = "test.pdf"
  try:
      hJob = win32print.StartDocPrinter(hPrinter, 1, ('PrintJobName', None, 'RAW'))
      try:
          win32api.ShellExecute(0, "print", filename, None, ".", 0)
          win32print.StartPagePrinter(hPrinter)
          win32print.WritePrinter(hPrinter, "test")  # Instead of raw text is there a way to print PDF File ?
          win32print.EndPagePrinter(hPrinter)
      finally:
          win32print.EndDocPrinter(hPrinter)
  finally:
      win32print.ClosePrinter(hPrinter)
  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So instead of printing a text I need to print the "test.pdf" file.</p>
  
  <p>I also tried with <strong><code>win32api.ShellExecute(0, "print", filename, None,  ".",  0)</code></strong> but it's not working, after some test like (getprinter, getdefault, setprinter, setdefaultprinter) it seems not to be attaching the printer. So at this way I can't get working.</p>
  
  <p>This is the code I used !</p>
  
  <pre><code>win32print.SetDefaultPrinter(hPrinter)
  win32api.ShellExecute(0, "print", filename, None,  ".",  0)
  </code></pre>
