How to design an application for printing HTML to PDF directly?

Question:Website printing HTML Code Help? I am designing a website in Dreamweaver CS5, and I am novice in website development. I am needing a website that, when a button is clicked, it will print a different file. For example, I have a calendar in word that I can make a PDF, but I want a button on the site that will print the PDF without having to open it. Is this possible and if so, what is the code?
