Acrobat Command line options Under NT

[Hani Elabed <ha...@elabed.net>]

Tony or anybody,

a while ago I asked about using acrobat on NT
to print directly i.e without firing up the 
Acrobat GUI.  In his reply Tony was gracious
enough to share with me the following command
with the /t option.

To my amazement it worked beautifully, but I can't 
find any documentation on it or MORE importantly
about other options on NT that Acrobat for UNIX has.
For example
(to print a range of pages..)
-start <page number> -end <page number> 

Another option that would be helpful is one that
would allow the printing of multiple copies of the
same pdf file...Are there such an option ??

thanks in advance.
