adobe acrobat 5.0 adobe reader 6.0 windows 2000 How can i have Acrobat Reader (AR) print a number of PDF (or FDF) files without �hanging� or without leaving an Adobe Reader running on the task bar? I have an application that generates multiple FDFs for the Adobe Reader to print. I need to automatically print all the FDFs generated without manual intervention. I tried a DOS BATch file using the �/s /h /t� trick (in many combinations) but it hangs �unless I already have an Adobe in the task bar.� I then wrote a C++ program to create an Adobe Reader process using the �/s /h /t� and if I �wait� for the process to complete, it will �hang forever!� Now this is interesting. If I manually fire up an Adobe Reader (or an Adobe Acrobat) before my C++ program runs, then the program does not �hang� on the wait. I also discovered if I bypass the wait on the first process and then wait on all subsequent Adobe Reader processes I start, then everything works fine. The problem is that there must already be an Adobe running in the task bar. If not, it will leave one Adobe in the task bar for you and if you wait on the first Adobe command to complete, you will hang forever. All I needed was to have Adobe print multiple documents in batch from a list of names... Any ideas on this subject? jerry To change your subscription: http://www.pdfzone.com/discussions/lists-pdf.html
