Batch printing PDFs from Word (Mac platform)

[PDFster]

I'm trying to batch print PDFs from Word on a Mac. I've tried a drag-and-drop
method, but Word displays a filename prompt for each file, which slows the
batch process to a crawl.

Does anyone know of a way to batch print PDFs from Microsoft Word on a Mac?

Thanks,

Ian

Why are you trying to print .pdfs from Word?

It's a workaround for a shortcoming that Acrobat 7 has on the Mac platform.
Using Mac's Acrobat 7, you can't create a PDF from a Word file (which means
you also can't "Create a PDF from multiple files" using the Mac version of
Acrobat 7). I'm trying to use the abovementioned feature to create a single,
searchable PDF from a database of Word files.

Of course you can print a single PDF from within Word, but it prompts you to
name the file, which is unrealisticly slow if you're trying to print -say-
300 PDFs at once.

Anyway, do you know how to batch print PDFs from Word?
