batch printing with php 1

[coderwasp]

I am building an application that generates PDF documents dynamically, and the client is asking to have the printing of these automated. He wants to be able to click a link or a button which will cue up all the documents and print them instead of opening each one individually clicking print for each one.

I don't know where to begin.

I could have the urls of the documents returned as a record set from the MySql database.

Are you writing a web application? Where will the documents be printed?

assuming client-server: why not shove all the invoices into a single pdf with multiple pages and then the client needs press print only once?

That's exactly what I ended up doing using fpdf_tpl, from
