Hi,

can you help me?
i used sample code:
package main
import (
"log"
"github.com/jadefox10200/goprint"
)
func main() {
printerName, _ := goprint.GetDefaultPrinterName()
//open the printer
printerHandle, err := goprint.GoOpenPrinter(printerName)
if err != nil {log.Fatalln("Failed to open printer")}
defer goprint.GoClosePrinter(printerHandle)
filePath := "C:/test/myPDF.pdf"
//Send to printer:
err = goprint.GoPrint(printerHandle, filePath)
if err != nil { log.Fatalln("during the func sendToPrinter, there was an error") }
}
Looks like it's printing the raw code of the PDF. What printer are you using? This package is VERY basic and sends the data to the printer raw. This means your printer must be able to understand the PDF language.
