 Posted: Tue Mar 09, 2010 9:27 am Post subject: SCRIPT REQUIRED FOR PRINTING |
 |
|
Hi,
I need to print 1000 (pdf for tif) files per day and it takes very long time to right click and print or open file and print.
Files for printing may be in my local disk or network path (\\comp1\print).
Is there any way to do this with the help of AutoHotKey.
Many Thanks in Advance.

a simple loop should sort it for you
| Code: |
SetTitleMatchMode, 2
FileSelectFolder, Folder, , , Please choose the folder to loop through
Loop, %Folder%\*.pdf
{
Run, %A_LoopFileFullPath%
WinWait, Adobe Acrobat ;<---Change this to the name of the window that you see using the AutoIt Windows Spy
Send, ^p
Sleep, 1000
WinClose, Adobe Acrobat
}

I can't promise that this will work straight off as it makes several assumptions about your system such as the name of the window which will be opened and the Ctrl+p hotkey to print.
Also this way will still take a long time but at least you could go and get a coffee while it's working.
Hopefully this will give you some pointers in the right direction to make a slick script which will work with your system.
