The are DOS commands if you are using Windows


You can create a series of DOS commands to print one page at a time, and set those filesnin random order. More work tha I would ever want to do.

Here is a guide, noting that the print range would only be one page


Page Selection
The way to print specific pages using lpr is to use the "-o" flag with the "page-ranges" option. You can use a dash to specify a range or give a list of pages separated by commas or even mix them both, as in:

1-5 would select pages 1 through 5
1-2,5,10-12 would select pages 1 & 2, page 5, and pages 10 through 12
The entire command would look like the following examples:


lpr -o page-ranges=1-5 filename.pdf
would print pages 1-5 of the file filename.pdf to your default printer.


lpr -o page-ranges=1-4,9 myfile.pdf
would print pages 1-4 and page 9 of the file myfile.pdf to your default printer.
