Printing

Community Beginner ,
Oct 25, 2022 Oct 25, 2022

I'm in a job where I need to print alot of PDF-files at once. Each and everyone of the files needs to be printed in 3 copies with a staple in the corner. I can't mark all the PDF-files and make this setting for the print job and all the PDF-files at once. I always have to print every file individually and make the before mentioned print setting with each file.

What to do?

You can use the Action Wizard to print multiple files one after another using the same settings.
It will use the last settings you've used in Acrobat's Print dialog, so make sure those are set correctly first (by printing one file manually), and then run the Action on the rest of the files. You just need to add a Print command to your Action (from the More Tools sub-panel on the left):

In addition to the good information above, you can choose to run the Acrobat action on a folder of pdfs, I believe that should print the pdfs one after the other, without intervention.

Unfortunately it won't work either.

You need to provide some more details if you want any help with your issues.

If I try the above nentioned all the files will be sent as a print job, but it will not use the print settings from the printjob before. Other wise I have to press 3 copies ant "apply" at every file. I really thought there would be a smart way to print a lot of PDFs at once with same print setting for all (3 copies and a stample in the corner of each copy)
