I need to loop the following. I have, say, 3 file in the folder that I need

printed. The code does work, however, it will only bring up only one file and

I need to bring up all the files in the folder and pring them. Or could you

tell me were I can find some help on DOS or command prompt. Thanks

 

C:\program files\adobe\reader 8.0\reader>acrord32.exe /t/n c:\print

pdfs\*.pdf \\csg-amdc2\hplj9050mfp_9 adobeps tektonix phaser 840

Try this:

 

for %a in (c:\print\pdfs\*.pdf) do acrord32.exe /t/n "%a"

\\csg-amdc2\hplj9050mfp_9 adobeps tektonix phaser 840 172.21.211.116

 

Type

 

for /?

 

at the Command Prompt to see how it works.

Oh, so close. It brought up three different Adobe reads but could not display

the pdf. I'm not sure if that's a short coming of Adobe or could something be

missing?

Thanks, by the way.

If the command

 

acrord32.exe /t/n "SomeFile.pdf" \\csg-amdc2\hplj9050mfp_9 adobeps tektonix

phaser 840 172.21.211.116

 

works then my initial suggestion will work too. I think

you need to put a little more work into the command

itself.

How do you mean "more work into the command"? If you please.

Re: command prompt loop?

 

You proposed this command:

 

acrord32.exe /t/n "SomeFile.pdf" \\csg-amdc2\hplj9050mfp_9 adobeps tektonix

phaser 840 172.21.211.116

 

I have a strong suspicion that it is not quite correct. Check

the Acrobat FAQs for the correct syntax!
