A link to print 17 individual files at once

T

ToferKing

I run a football pool on the web. It isn't anything really fancy, but it
certainly is fun.

I prepare 17 pages of text that represent the weekly schedule for the NFL
football games.

Right now, the best I can do for my pool participants is to allow them to go
to each page and print them off one at a time.

I would reallly like to be able to have a link that says, "Print all 17
weeks at once" and have the user click on that and it would launch their
printer dialog box, where they get to choose which printer to send it to, etc.

The file names that I would like to print out in one shot are:

WinnersMatchUpWeek01, WinnersMatchUpWeek02,....WinnersMatchUpWeek17

Any help you can provide is very appreciated.

Generate a multipage pdf file. You'll need Adobe Acrobat (not the reader) or
one of the free pdf creator programs out there to do this (PrimoPDF,
CutePDF, etc).

Then Import the pdf file into FP and create a link to it. You could also
make it a "fillable" PDF form with Acrobat (not sure if you can with primo
or cute).

Create a new page and use a FP Include page on that page of all 17 pages for printing
