Last week, I asked if anyone knew of software (or thru scripting) of a way
to print web pages in batch. It was suggested I look at Acrobat 5. This
comes close to what we want, but I wanted to see if anyone has any other
ideas. Acrobat 5.0 does not allow you to select files in a directory. You
either pick one file or you pick the entire directory. We would like the
ability to supply wildcards (say ABC*.htm). It also appends one file after
the other in one very large PDF. This forces files to carry over and print
in the middle of the page. I found a piece of software called SitePrint
Pro (http://www.optima-system.com/), but it only runs on the Mac.
Unfortuanely, we do not have any Macs. Any other ideas? Our task is to
print over 3,200 html files w/o having to click 3,2000 times. I would like
to print selected files from a directory in a batch run. Any ideas?
