Description
On Line 97 of PrintServices.java there is a for loop which lists the users printers:
for (int i = 0, max = services.length - 1; i < max; i++) {
If the user has only a single printer (as I do on my Ubuntu system) then no printers are listed.
Instead of testing for "i < max" the test should be "i <= max"
for (int i = 0, max = services.length - 1; i <= max; i++) {
At the same time for clarity it may also be worth changing the user prompt on line 99 to include "printer number" :
"Please select the printer number your wish to print to (q to quit):");

p.s. ICEpdf is great software. Many thanks!

I've given the PrintService and the PrintHelp a one over to try and make them easier to use and more customizable. The PrinterServices example now uses the PrintHelper class to help with printing. I've updated the PrintHelper class has been updated to be more configurable, both the constructor and setupPrintService have been updated.

Thanks for the update Patrick and the quick fix. Is the new code available via svn yet please? I had a quick search at http://anonsvn.icefaces.org/repo/icepdf/tags/icepdf-4.0.0-Beta2/ but couldn't see it.

You can get the updated example and print helper off the trunk right now. I'll be updating the 4.0 tag today but you won't be able to see it for another 24 hours unfortunately.
