I am wondering if there are more simple ways to do that, because I am not the best at coding, I even have no idea about that. Maybe there are some things to do that will automatically set everything for me, I would be very glad if somebody will tell me how to figure everything out. I need smn with discord or smth else, I need to explain.

This is the simplest method to print a PDF document using Aspose.PDF. However, if you want to find a solution other than programming or Aspose API, this is not appropriate channel to look into. In case you have any inquiry about Aspose APIs, please feel free to let us know.
