AcroTeX PDF Print Monitor

AcroTeX PDF Print Monitor is an application that prints any PDF file it finds in its input (or watched) folder. You select a folder to be a watched folder (an input folder), after the AcroTeX PDF Print Monitor begins watching the folder, if drop a PDF file into this folder, the AcroTeX PDF Print Monitor will detect it and print it to a selected printer, the Monitor then moves the file to an output folder.

The Monitor is a nice fit with Adobe Acrobat Distiller. With Distiller, you can set up a watched folder. If you drop a PostScript file into the input folder of the watched folder, Distiller detects it, distills it, and moves the resultant PDF file into the output folder. If you set up the output folder for Distiller as the input folder for AcroTeX PDF Print Monitor, the Monitor will eventually detect the newly created PDF, and print it to the selected printer.
