The -cmds option allows you to process a collection of files at one time
To process multiple commands quickly and efficiently, use the -cmds <filename> option. The file specified by -cmds, the commands file, should contain one or more single line commands. Each command is just like an ordinary AppendPDF or AppendPDF Pro command-line without the executable name. The commands file does not support wildcards in filenames. Below are examples of command line syntax when running with -cmds:
$ ./appendpdfapp -p -l logfile.txt -cmds CommandFile.txt
$ ./appendproapp -p -l logfile.txt -cmds CommandFile.txt
CommandFile.txt contains a list of commands for AppendPDF or AppendPDF Pro to process. This is an example of a CommandFile.txt file:
-p -iso32000 /appligent/appendpro/samples/parameters.txt -p -iso32000 /appligent/appendpro/samples/paramsbasic.xml -p -optimize /appligent/appendpro/samples/tutorial.txt -p -w /appligent/appendpro/samples/paramscomplete.xml
