SYNOPSIS

       auto-multiple-choice imprime --sujet subject.pdf --fich-nums numbers-file.txt
                            --data data-dir --methode method [where-to-print-arguments...]

DESCRIPTION

       The AMC-imprime.pl command prints selected copies from a AMC multiple choice answer sheet.

   What to print
       The following arguments describe what to print:

       --sujet subject.pdf
           sets the subject file (prepared by AMC-prepare(1)).

       --fich-nums numbers-file.txt
           gives a file where the numbers of the copies to be printed are written (one number per
           line). If this argument is not given, all the copies will be printed.

       --data data-dir
           gives the directory where data files are (see for example AMC-meptex(1)). The layout
           database in the data directory is used to know at which page of the subject file each
           copy begins and ends.

       --split
           asks to print separate answer sheets separately.

   Where to print
       Several printing methods are currently defined:

       •   with "--methode CUPS", AMC-imprime.pl prints to a CUPS printer. One print job is sent
           for each copy, allowing for exemple to use stapling. Use the following options with
           this method:

           --imprimante printer
               sets the CUPS printer name to print to.

           --options cups-options
               gives CUPS options, in the opt1=value1,opt2=value2,...  format.

       •   with "--methode file", AMC-imprime.pl outputs the answer sheets to files (one for each
           copy).

           --output filename
               sets the filename for outputs. The '%e' sequence will be replaced by a 4-digits
               copy number. If filename does not contain '%e', the string '-%e.pdf' will be added
               at its end.

       •   with "--methode command", AMC-imprime.pl will use a provided command for each copy.

           --print-command command
               gives the command to be used for printing. The command string will be split at
               each space character (even when using quotes...). The sequence '%f' will be
               replaced by a PDF filename (containing the copy to print), and '%e' will be
               replaced by the copy number.
