I recently found an article from the Developer Knowledgebase about a question I posted on here yesterday, "Printing PDF files from the command line", about Batch Printing PDF Files. 

I am using Acrobat Reader 5.05 on Windows NT 4.0 SP6a. 

Using acrord32 /t doc path printer path, I am able to print a pdf file from the command line.  Now according to the article, it is suppose to terminate the Acrobat Reader after it prints the document, but it is leaving it open.  I am also getting errors on the command sometimes where it is telling me to "Please use the Control Panel to select a default printer" when my system already has a default printer set and in the command I am passing, I am telling it the printer path. 

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong that is causing the Acrobat Reader to stay open or for that error to be popped on the desktop for a response.  Please advise.
