Sep 05, 2018 RAND Topics. RAND developed the Delphi method in the 1950s, originally to forecast the impact of technology on warfare. The method entails a group of experts who anonymously reply to questionnaires and subsequently receive feedback in the form of a statistical representation of the 'group response,' after which the process repeats itself. Teaching thinking is central to the idea of a liberal education Philosopher John Dewey was one of the first educators to stress the centrality of reflective thinking Reflective thinking, critical thinking, higher-order thinking - no consensus definition until the Delphi Report Why is The Delphi Report important?

I have been looking online for some time now, but I still haven't figured out how to print a PDF file in Delphi without showing the document itself, or a print dialog. I just want to open a file without showing it, and print it to the default printer.
I'm trying to print a batch of PDF documents, and there is no need for user interference.

There are some different possibilities to print PDFs.. it depends whether you can require Adobe Reader to be installed (I don't know if you want to distribute your tool or just use it yourself).
1) It is possible to load the ActiveX control of Adobe Reader and use it for printing
2) You can print PDFs with Adobe Reader itself (could be done with FoxIt too)
3) You could also use Ghostview and Ghostprint
4) Or you could use a third party library.. There are some available, but not all of them are free

Here are a bunch of routines I have written in my libary. If you pass a pdf file as parameter to PrintUsingShell it should print if a Acrobat reader program has been installed (might work with other pdf-software too if they registered themselfs in the registry).
Java pdf export. Note: please try these out on your Delphi version and Operating system (I have developed them under Delphi 7 and used them under Windows XP).
If you want native printing (without Acrobat reader installed - but who hasn't installed Acrobat Reader these days?) you might consider the following component set: Pdft print components from WpCubed.
UPDATE
Upon request I added the Execute function from my library ..

There is a shareware-prog called 'AutoPrint' that sends all files in a folder to a printer,cost 35 dollar. (if u dont have many customers).
Otherwise it would be cool if someone could fix some code that does the same.

Printing a PDF to a printer without attempting to use Adobe Reader from Delphi can be done using Debenu Quick PDF Library, which supports all versions of Delphi from 4 to XE8. Sample code for printing a PDF programmatically without previewing it first:
More advanced printing options are also available using the customer printer functions. It's not a free SDK, but it will do exactly what you want.

DescriptionACE Reporter is a native VCL component for Delphi that allows you to easily create complex banded reports that are linked directly into your EXEs. You do your designing right inside Delphi, just like the rest of your application. There are no messy run-times to deliver, or slow external programs that need to load to run a report.
ACE Reporter includes a wealth of features that let you build intricate reports that are next to impossible in external report programs. Since ACE is actually part of your program, you can link your own event code into the report to execute custom logic when needed. Here are some of the features that ACE Reporter offers you:

DescriptionLike all Developer Express technologies, the ExpressPrinting System helps you put control back into the hands of your end-users via a runtime interface that is easy to use, with an astounding level of flexibility. It gives you the power to quickly add unlimited reporting to your programs without designing a single report.
When you combine the ExpressPrinting System with the ExpressQuantumGrid or ExpressMasterView, you get the threefold benefit of eliminating the tedium associated with creating traditional banded reports, greatly reducing development time, and putting flexibility back into the hands of your users.
No longer will you have to create and re-create reports because of simple changes to your database or requests by users to group/sort data by new columns. No longer will you have to pull your hair out when a user requests a new report that was not in the original spec. By combining the ExpressPrinting System with the QuantumGrid and/or MasterView controls, your end-users can arrange data in any manner they see fit, and then print the contents of the control exactly as it appears on-screen.

DescriptionTNormalReport is a component to print reports in Delphi. It allows to prepare almost any types of reports without problems. Almost not visual at all - the most of work is done manually, writing a code which determines an order in which bands and cells are added, which controls headers and footers printing, decides when to start at new page, etc. But this could be a great advantage though.. Made a report once, it is possible to copy and modify code to prepare similar one. It is easy to print different sets of cells in the same report by certain conditions, since there are no needs to duplicate your work to prepare many reports, when it is possible to control output in the same report..Informations
