Printing Documents in WSH

Printing documents is a fairly common automation task. Perhaps you want to batch print a folder full of documents, or maybe you would like to automate report printing. In any case, WSH does not necessarily provide a straightforward method for doing this. Let us look at some different ways of printing documents in WSH.

Free Error Cleaner v2.35

Free Error Cleaner is a tool that identifies missing and invalid
references in the Windows Registry. It features automatic backup every time
the program is used, optional Registry restore of deleted items, scans
13 sections for errors, built-in scheduler, and more. This is an
excellent system cleaner that scans the Windows Registry and reports problems.
If you have a registered copy it will then clean or repair these
problems -- the problem being that it requires registration (albeit free)
but the author's site does not work properly and registration failed to
work on two out of three times we tried. It took some perseverance to
get the key which then unlocked the program so that the restore and
repair section would work. Free Error Cleaner identified 455 problems with
our Registry and, after we finally were able to unlock the program, it
successfully removed all those problems. However, even this didn't go
smoothly and it took three scan/repair cycles before it reported a cl
ean Registry. Those little problems aside, Free Error Cleaner worked
really well and did a great job of identifying and (finally) repairing
our Registry.

Adding Images With iTextSharp

Often, text alone can communicate a message, but sometimes graphics are needed. Even when they are not, text alone can be a bit dull to read. In this article, we will take a look at incorporating graphics into a PDF document with iTextSharp.

SureThing Photo v1.1.312.0

SureThing Photo is a photo editor & manager. It organizes all photos &
images (date, keywords, comments & categories), can handle many
thousands of images, can automatically adjust exposure & contrast, removes red
eye, sharpens blurry images, applies special effects, creates photo
albums & contact sheets, prints, and more. This is a superb photo toolbox
that can truly manage many thousands of images while offering some
photo editing functions. It sits between a full blown photo editor and an
image viewer with some editing functions though it is the photo
management tools which make it really stand out. For example, the red eye
reduction tool works well, but it is a manual system that some people might
feel uncomfortable with compared to more automated red eye removal
tools in other free programs. When you first load this program you get all
the functions of the "Plus" version, like a screensaver creation tool
(with transitions), the ability to backup to DVD or CD, a photo Web
tool, etc. Once these are gone, you revert back to the more basic free
version. Even with some of its shortcomings, SureThing Photo is an
excellent tool, specially for managing large photo collections. We liked!
Note: we have been advised that this program is not suitable for
Windows 95. Access this 13.1MB download from:

RightMark Audio Analyzer v6.1.1

RightMark Audio Analyzer is a tool that tests the quality of analog and
digital paths of any audio devices (sound card, MP3 player, CD/DVD
player, acoustic set, etc). It features a playback generator, spectrum
plot modes (linear/log/mel), HTML reports, supports mono & stereo, and
more. Unfortunately CFS was unable to review this program. The author says
that the RightMark Audio Analyzer suite is "designed for testing
quality of analog and digital paths of any audio devices, be it a sound
card, an MP3 player, a consumer CD/DVD player or an acoustic set. The
results are obtained by playing and recording test signals passed through
the tested audio path by means of frequency analysis algorithms. A more
common mark is also provided for those unfamiliar with measured
technical parameters." Access this 6.19MB download from:

SeaMonkey v1.1.10

SeaMonkey is a tabbed Web browser with advanced e-mail & newsgroup
client, IRC chat client, address book, and WYSIWYG HTML editing. It
features popup ad & offensive-image blockers, a form filler, password manager,
download & cookie managers, and more. This is an excellent all-in-one
Web tool that replaces the now defunct Mozilla Application Suite from
Mozilla.org. It not just offers an excellent Web browser (similar, but
not quite as good as Firefox) but it also offers e-mail facilities and
an excellent WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) HTML editor for
creating your pages. The other functions are just icing on the cake.
SeaMonkey lacks the modern look 'n feel of Firefox (its sister application)
and is more reminiscent of the old Netscape Communicator suite. It even
shares the same icon as Netscape! As with Firefox, SeaMonkey enjoys the
provision of add-on tools to enhance the application but with far
fewer add-ons than are available for Firefox. The Composer (HTML editor
) allows for both WYSIWYG editing and also source code editing, though
the source code editor does not include syntax highlighting. Overall,
SeaMonkey is a superb suite that enjoys full integration with each part
of the suite. We still feel that Firefox is the better browser but, if
you want those other functions, is the best way to get a full suite of
Web tools.
