The end PDF was to be printed as A3 booklet, and as such, page numbers were to be pages 1 and 2 from all the PDFs to begin with, and then pages 3 and 4 filemakker all of those from all the PDFs in reverse ordersuch that when the final PDF was printed as A3 booklet we ended up with proper booklets 1 per PDF….

As a side note, I had records which all had PDFs which I needed to combine into a single file for printing. The Mac version assembles the code into this variable… …which is performed via AppleScript: Thanks for taking the time to write that up, Jeff.

Thanks for taking the time to comment. If you are Mac only, you might be able to achieve the same thing using just Automator and AppleScript. As a side note, I had records which all had PDFs which I needed to combine into a single file for printing.
