encryted.

OK, then there are one thing that you might do. This depends on the license
of your application.

I'm sure you have heard of Ghostscript. Well there is a utility program
that comes with Ghostscript called gsprint. Using gsprint instead of
Acrobat Reader will do everything you want.

gsprint will end when the printing is done so you can use
System.Diagnost ics.Process to start gsprint and then use
Process::WaitFo rExit(); to wait until the printing is done.

This way you will get all documents printed in order!

The only problem is that to be able to use gsprint/Ghostscript your
application has to be released under the GPL License or you need to buy a
license from Artifex Software, Inc. and the license cost from 20000$ and up

I am having a problem with printing selected pages. Actually, the problem isn't with printing selected pages as it is more to do with having blank pages print for those pages that have not been selected. For example, if I were to have 5 pages with every second page printing, I would get the following results: Page 1 = Print OK Page 2 = Blank Page 3 = Print OK Page 4 = Blank
