AMC-IMPRIME(1) Auto Multiple Choice AMC-IMPRIME(1)

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.
--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.
