Printjobs with file-name instead ... (2. version)

Post by Peter2 »

My first suggestion "Printjobs with file-name instead "Xnview Document"
http://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?p=61256
is now added in Version 1.93.6 from May 1, 2008.

But there is still a problem: If I print some images together (i.e. 8 images with one command, NOT on one paper ...), the print job does not consist of 8 single print jobs with 8 different printjobnames; it is 1 printjob with 8 pages and with the name of the first image.

I think - if there is only one image on a single page - every image should result in a single print job with correct name. The aggregation in one single job with many pages can not be handled (stopped, repeated, save as file ...)

It's not a normal behaviour, you must have 1 job only.
Perhaps a hidden option for that...

Sorry Pierre, but now I am confused: What is "normal behaviour": One job with many pages - or many jobs with always one page? And the "hidden option" - in XnView or in my printer-device?

I mean to have only 1 job with many pages is the normal behaviour.
I'll add a hidden entry in xnview.ini to be able to use 1 job/page
