Hi
I have searched the forum and didn't find it so I'm not sure this question should go in Support or Feature Request.
I'll leave it up to the Admins to decide although there could well be someone with a suggestion ...
What I need to accomplish is to print multiple multipage files (PDF, TIF) as one job to a selection of printers.
I went so far (with the help of this forum, Skippybox in particular) as to write a script to split all pages as separate TIF files in one directory in the correct order.
Next I want to combine them into one file and print but ... some files are landscape, some are portrait. I could I suppose do a /info=txtfile on each of them and then /rotate_l or /rotate_r to make them all align either Portrait or Landscape but I was hoping there was a less cumbersome way to do this because this might take up some time for large quantities of large multipage files.
The feature request would be to have an option /orient_l or /orient_p (perhaps combined with a rotate left or right IF rotation would be required).
Obviously a single print job from several files would even be better ...
Thank you for any suggestions or an other way to accomplish what I need to do ... for very little money ;-)
