Printing RTF file under win32

[Mark Carter]

I'm using Python 2.6.5 on win32. I would like to print a batch of RTF
files on a printer. I don't want to use the win32api.ShellExecute
command because that invokes Word, and Word has been configured in a
strange way by one of our admins, making it inconvenient to use.

What should I do?

Invoke WordPad instead?

Hi!

Try this line:
"C:\Program Files\Windows NT\Accessories\wordpad.exe" /p D:\data\fil.rtf
(change the path if you have a windows 64 bits)
