In today's tutorial, we will explore how to print multiple PDF files with just one click using macros. This feature is particularly helpful when dealing with a large number of PDF files that need to be printed at once. The idea for this tutorial came from a subscriber who needed to print only a specific set of files out of 10,000. The code for this process can be found on the creator's Facebook group page for training and educational purposes. In this session, we will focus on understanding the logic behind the code and how to effectively use it for printing multiple documents at once.
