auto-multiple-choice-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 auto-multiple-choice imprime 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 auto-multiple-choice-
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 auto-
multiple-choice-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.
--answer-first
asks to reorder the pages of each copy to get the separate answer
sheet first.
Where to print
Several printing methods are currently defined:
• with "--methode CUPS", auto-multiple-choice imprime prints to a
CUPS printer. One print job is sent for each copy, allowing for
example 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", auto-multiple-choice imprime 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", auto-multiple-choice imprime 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.
Other options
Other available options:
--extract-with command
gives the command to use to extract pages from the PDF subject.
Currently, pdftk, gs and qpdf are available. The default value is
pdftk, but qpdf and then gs will be used if the pdftk command is
not installed.
