Batch Print From Excel List

Hello, 

So the situation is we have a file of pdfs that have well over a thousand individual pdf's in there. We often need to print up to 100 of these PDF's which get sent to us in a list. Is there a way to have a list of file names, all which are PDF's, and print all of them from that list rather than going through one at a time?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Printing from a list is a bit tricky. I would recommend using a script to merge those files to a single PDF and then print that one file. Then you can simply close that file without saving it.

 

You can do it using this (paid-for) tool I've created, for example: http://try67.blogspot.com/2009/10/combine-pdf-files-from-text-list.html

Acrobat has a tool called Action Wizard which allows you to create custom action for batch processing.
