NAME

       AMC-imprime - prints AMC multiple choice answer sheets to be distributed to the students

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.

   Where to print
       Several printing methods are currently defined:

       o   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.

       o   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.

       o   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.
