Opening multiple PDF documents using batch file

问题


I am trying to open several PDF documents using a simple batch file:

ECHO OFF
CLS
cd Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader
Acrord32.exe C:\Users\BW1.pdf
Acrord32.exe C:\Users\BW2.pdf
Acrord32.exe C:\Users\BW3.pdf
Acrord32.exe C:\Users\BW4.pdf
Acrord32.exe C:\Users\BW5.pdf
Acrord32.exe C:\Users\BW6.pdf
EXIT

The above batch file opens the first PDF only, then waits until I close it for the next PDF file to open. How can I have all the PDF documents open at the same time? (Like going to Acrobat Reader, file->Open->xx.pdf)


回答1:


Use start:

start acrord32.exe 1.pdf
start acrord32.exe 2.pdf
start acrord32.exe 3.pdf

Or even (as Johannes Rössel suggests in the comment below):

start 1.pdf
start 2.pdf
start 3.pdf

Would probably work as well (depending on your default PDF viewer).

Note that when using start you have to be careful when using quoted arguments, as the following won't work (the first quoted argument is interpreted as the title for a new console window):

start "1.pdf"

Instead you'll have to do the following:

start "" "1.pdf"

It's an annoying quirk of start, but you have to effectively supply a dummy title in this case to properly open the specified file (even though the title is unnecessary as this won't create a new console window).

A list of other available batch commands.

For me it works even without the start command. I use:

c:\path\to\my.pdf

in cmd.exe windows frequently, and it always opens Acrobat Reader (my default viewer on Windows). In a batchfile I've written to generate PDF via Ghostscript, my last two lines are:

"%ouptutpath%\%outputfile%.pdf"
"%outputpath%\%outputfile%-optimized.pdf"

which automatically opens both generated PDFs in two different Reader windows. (My %outputpath% contains spaces, the %outputfile% may also have some...)




回答3:


Have you tried whether Acrobat Reader allows for more files on the commandline, ie.

start acrord32.exe 1.pdf 2.pdf 3.pdf



回答4:


Thank you!

Using start did the trick. I had to use start as many times as the number of pdf documents I want to open. For some reason

start acrord32.exe 1.pdf 2.pdf 3.pdf

opens only the first document. So I guess Acrobat reader might not allow for more files on the command line.

I rally appreciate your answers.




回答5:


Thanks for the above answers.

I also tried below, working fine:

start /B excel.exe "D:\my first file.xlsx" "E:\my second file.xlsx" "D:\working folder\my third file.xlsx"




回答6:


For every pdf file in the specified directory, use the start command on that file:

for %f ("C:\Users\*.pdf") do start %f

As per the Microsoft Docs:

For runs a specified command for each file in a set of files.

for {%variable|%%variable} in (set) do command [ CommandLineOptions]
