Printing Multiple PDF's at the same time using ASP

Hello everyone,

I've developed an ASP classic program that allows users to view PDF reports. Currently, users can click on a PDF and print it, however, I need to find a way to allow them to select multiple PDF's and print them at the same time. I can can handle the multiple selection part, but I need ideas how ASP can interact with Adobe Reader and print multiple files at once.

Can anyone please help?

Thanks a million! :)

I can't think of a way to do this off the top of my head...


Let me spec this out..
You are wanting the user to be able to select multiple pdf's and it print all those pdfs, i'm guessing to a real printer correct?

How about server side merging the pdf's into 1 pdf would that solve your issue?

Hi iam_clint,

That's exactly how I solved it--more or less. I used a third party Active X component to merge the PDF's into one file then open the merged file and allowed the users to print it.

Thanks!
