Print Multiple PDFs at Once?

I have a folder filled with 900 PSDs. I want to print them all at once, in order preferably, without having to open up each PDF one at a time and selecting print.
I tried creating a batch action by recording print. However, once it opens too many tabs (around 280 or so within photoshop) the program creates an error stating "could not complete your request because too many files were selected for opening at once"
See image to illustrate the issue

Give the Action a Close command at the end of its processing so each document of the batch will be closed before the next is opened.

Print multiple pdf from web site

Hello everyone!!,
I need print multiple pdf from web site (web page) to the local printer o client printer.
I have investigated : cfexecuted, java code, javascript, but i can't do it.
The idea is don´t open printer dialog box for to print.
Thanks.

It is NOT POSSIBLE (for security reasons) to do silent printing in this way. (you wouldn't want to visit a web site and have your printer start spewing out page after page of profanity, would you??)
You can, however, offer the user the choice to print and then have it print. That can easily be done by embedding JavaScript into the PDF to be printed. If you have multiple documents, you should merge them together on the server first and then send a single document.

How do I print multiple PDFs AND fit them to my paper size?

Hi,
I'm using a 24 inch wide plotter with roll paper. I want to be able to print multiple PDFs AND fit them to a specified paper size. I can print one page and fit it to the paper, but I can't do it with multiple PDFs.
For example, I have two PDFs that are only 8x8 inches. I want to print them side by side on a 24 inch x 12 inch page size and fit them to size and then FIT them to the page size so the end result will be 2 PDFs printing at 12 x 12 side by side.
I can't seem to be able to do this. I'm sure I was able to do this using earlier versions. As it is, I have to print one at a time and waste half of my roll paper size.
Any help?
Adobe Acrobat Pro, Windows 7 Proffesional, HP Designjet 111 roll fed plotter.
Thanks

Print Multiple Pdf's with Acrobat X pro

I would like to print multiple pdf's from folder but when i highlight like 7 pdf's then do right click there is no option to print. We had this option in acrobat 9 pro.
Also one of the user computer only ahve acrobat reader and that user able to print mulitple pdf's.
How can i fix this? pls help
Thanks

Having a similar issue with Acrobat Pro X, currently version 10.0.3 (I will be updating it tonight). If I right click a PDF and select print, Acrobat launches but doesn't open the document or print. It just opens to the initial screen (where you can open, create, etc). If I right click on a PDF and select Open, Acrobat launches and opens the document and from within Acrobat I can do a File -> Print and it works - so it's just a problem when trying to Print from a right-click.
I can right click on other doc types and it prints just fine, can select multiple files of the same type and they print as well if I right click -> Print. This is only happening with Acrobat so it's not an OS issue. I have the same problem on 2 boxes.

How to batch print multiple PDFs in Mac OS X?

Does anyone know of any new software that allows one to batch print multiple PDF files with a print dialogue for the first file, followed by dialogue-less printing for the rest?
I work for an architect's firm and we often find ourselves printing dozens of A1 PDFs, going through the print dialogue window for each file.
We used to be able to batch print when Preview.app could open multiple PDFs in one window; it lost this capability in a regression when it gained bookmarks and we've been living in batch print stone age ever since.
(A desktop printer doesn't work by the way)

Open one of the PDFs in Preview then drag the rest of the files into the sidebar. Print the resulting file. If you don't want to save it as a single PDF just select 'Don't Save' when you exit.
Wow! I've been asking this question repeatedly for a couple of years now and you're the first person to mention this. Thanks a lot. There will be some happy campers in our office, I tell ya.
I missed it because all the large PDFs we create include a table of contents and you have to switch to thumbnail view before you can drag and drop additional PDFs.
With the type of files we produce It takes 30 seconds or so to add 8 files together, so it's not ideal but it's a lot faster and more convenient than Acrobat Pro or printing each file separately.
Another option is to open the printer window and drag all the files into it. They will print automatically with no dialog box.
This doesn't work because you can't choose the size of paper you want to print to.
Thanks again, your first post too.

Problem with quick printing multiple .pdfs from Outlook 2010

Hi there,
I have a user who is having problems printing multiple .pdf's using the quick print function in Outlook. I have tried reader 9,10 and 11.
11 errors when printing (nothing specific in the error message) and only 1 or 2 documents are printed.
9 and 10 error and report that a file is missing. Yet again, often prints 1 or two of the files.
I have reproduced the problem on my own PC.
Is there some type of bug with Adobe Acrobat printing multiple files using the quick print function within Outlook?
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Will

I am not very skilled in Adobe by any means, but I was having the same issue. When I did the Control P to print, I went into Print Options, then into Properties. Under Adobe PDF settings, I unchecked the box that said "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts." and that worked for me.
Hope it helps.

Printing Multiple PDFs

I am trying to print multiple PDFs wihtout opening each one individually.
In Explorer I highlight them all and right click for the context menu and select printer.
With any version of Adobe reader after 5 all I get is rubblish. If I open each individually it works, if I use version 5 it works and if I use Foxit Reader it works. but not Acrobat reader 6, 7, 8 or 9.
Any ideas? It looks like an Adobe problem as we have this on multiple PCs, different printers, different files and O/S. Was something changed Post Acrobat Reader 5??

You're right, it hasn't worked properly since Reader 5. Alternative is to try my pdfbat here: http://www.esnips.com/web/PDFTools or print-conductor here: http://www.print-conductor.com/

Printing multiple PDF files in Windows 7 at once

When I had Windows XP I could select multiple pdf files in their folder then right click to print. With Windows 7 this option is no longer there. I have searched everywhere for a solution to this problem. I am not sure why Adobe (or Microsoft) took this option away. I have to print 30 to 40 invoices a day. I now currently have to open each individual document, print, close, and move on to the next. This is quite cumbersome. If anyone knows of a way around this I would appreciate the help.
If no solution is available does Abode know of the situation?

your right. I am using Acrobat. didn't even know I had it. I've been bugging the IT guy for Acrobat for a while. I have no idea how long it's been installed. I had just bugged him again last week.
reader is still set as my default. without even realizing it, i've only been using acrobat to combine and print large files.
the only way to combine pdf's in reader is to use Adobe's online service which you have to pay for.
I'm sure there's some third party software out there. I use bluebeam to mark up pdf's. it's free.
don't know if it can be used to print or combine multiple files. never tried.
the method of dragging and dropping pdf files into the printer window does work with reader. (I checked)
As I said, it prints the documents out of order which can be a pain.
I found this discussion because I was searching for a way to get the documents to print in order. Haven't found one......yet.

Printing multiple pdf files at once

I have tons of invoices I need to print up. They were things I should have printed along all year, but I opted to save as pdf instead, now I need them on paper! Is there a way, perhaps with a workflow or 3rd party software, that I can select them in the finder and print them without opening each individual file and printing them one at a time? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I also have a need to print many PDF documents from the same folder. Your recommendation to drag the files to the printer icon almost does the trick. The problem is that the printout is clipped. If I open and print the individual files I am given the option to fit the document to the paper size and all is well. If I drag directly to the icon no option at all is presented and, in my case, the document size exceeds the paper size. Is there a way to set the "Page Scaling" in the dragging operation? I have an Epson R340 printer.
Thanks for any help you can give.

How do I print multiple (PDF) pages per sheet in Lion?

The printing interface has changed in preview, and whereas there used to be an option to print multiple pages per sheet, there's now only an option to print multiple copies per sheet. The latter is of no use to me, whereas printing multiple pages per sheet was very useful since I often print large documents.

Well, in Snow Leopard I used to print PDFs from Preview, and if I recall correctly, where it now says 'copies per page', it used to say 'images per page'. So of course, I now have a couple of printouts with two copies of each page per sheet.
But the preview tab and then the option 'layout' works. I don't understand why this interface had to change though.

How can I print multiple files at once

I have to print construction plan sheets on 11x17 paper. All of the files are generally .tif or .pdf. How can I select all of the files at once and print them all at once instead of having to open each sheeet and print them one by one?

Oner way is to drag and drop the files into your print queue. You can open the queue from System Preferences - Print and Scan, click on your printer and click Open Queue.

Print multiple PDFs from Windows Explorer causes Acrobat Pro 9.4 crash

I sometimes need to create a batch of PDFs independently, after which it suits me to print them all as a single job. FYI I am running Acrobat Pro 9.4 under Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.
The sequence of the problem as follows:
- With Acrobat closed, I go to the directory containing my multiple PDF files using Windows Explorer.
- I highlight between three and six PDF docs (each individual doc is small, one page, black and white only).
- I use the "Print" option made available within Windows Explorer.
It's clear that the system then tries to use Acrobat to print these docs, however I consistently get the same behaviour - some print, some do not, but on every occasion I receive the error "Adobe Acrobat 9.4 has stopped working".
Any ideas? Annoying for a paid-for piece of pro software although, granted, not on a level with famine in the third world it would be nice to have all the functionalities working correctly. If it helps my machine spec is below.
Thanks,
Alastair
SPEC:
Dual Xeon workstation
24Gb RAM (of which 22GB available at time of error)
Disk 1TB (RAID10) of which 920GB free
Windows 9 Ultimate 64bit
Acrobat Pro ver 9.4.1

It may partly be a 64-bit issue since AA is apparently a 32-bit application that can run in the 64-bit environment (not that familiar with 64-bit systems, so I may not be stating it correctly. However, I would start by going to the Control Panel>Programs and Features and do a repair on your Acrobat installation. That will hopefully resolve the issue.

Printing multiple PDF with single event at client side

Hello,
I have a requirement where I must print multiple different pre-populated Adobe forms (e.g. populated with a name/address) from ABAP WD. These need to be printed at a client side printer, and they don't want to see them first (that would be easy). Just print multiple forms from a single button click.
Has anyone had this requirement? My main question is not how to pre-populate the pdfSource, but how to have the user prompted for a printer 1x and then have the forms sent straight to the local printer without displaying.
Thanks!

Sorry to 'hijack' this thread but i was trying to do the same thing but failed EVERYTIME!!!
When i tried to merge just 2 multiple-paged(abt 20+ pages each) pdfs into one, it simply crashed Preview at the end of the process! Tried 'Save', 'Save all' & 'Print as PDF' but all doesn't work!
I tried Combine PDF.app & Automator.app and the same thing happened. The combining process CRASHED the app i used...
Help needed!
