Instead of directly exec()'ing the binary, exec()'ing "/usr/bin/open -a Preview" will give you a more Mac-like experience by going though LaunchServices and picking up Preivew.app no matter where it is located on disk.

Hello,

We try to start the preview application from java with the runtime.exec command,
so java-application will be start by a shell-script, when we start this it works and
the preview application starts, but we wan't to use this as a cups-backend, when
cups start the java-shell-application we get an error

No Info.plist file in application bundle or no NSPrincipalClass in the Info.plist file, exiting

when calling the preview-application, what is wrong?
we tried different callings but have no success.

with regards
