PDF-Multi-Print: Read Our Exclusive Report

Below you'll find one of the five articles from today's edition of TechnoLawyer NewsWire:

Powerful PDF Printing
By Jill Bauerle

With lawyer hard drives bursting at the seams with PDF files, printing them one at a time can quickly become tedious. You have better things to do with your time. Luckily, the PDF mavens at Acrobotics have developed PDF-Multi-Print, a utility dedicated to printing PDF files. PDF-Multi-Print prints your PDF files "silently," which means no annoying dialog box. Just one click and you're printing. Even better, just drop your PDF files into a "Hot Folder," and PDF-Multi-Print will print them for you automatically. Now you're down to no clicks! PDF-Multi-Print supports up to 8 hot folders, which means that you can print to as many as 8 different local or network printers. PDF-Multi-Print prints PDF files in alphabetical order or chronologically by the modification date of the file. Alternatively, you can specify the order in which PDF files print with an "custom ordered list." If you already have a bunch of PDF files in a folder, you can print all of them with one click — no need to move them into a Hot Folder. PDF-Multi-Print will ignore any non-PDF files in such a folder. For law firms with programming resources, PDF-Multi-Print features an extensible command line for customizing your workflow. For example, you can customize PDF-Multi-Print so that users can access it from within other programs. PDF-Multi-Print works with Windows 98 and higher, and Adobe Reader 5 and higher or Adobe Acrobat 5 or higher. The single user version sells for $95 with a server version also available. Learn more about PDF-Multi-Print.
