Perhaps this is a solution - though not an ideal one, because PDF and Acrobat do not support paper, media control. o central mass printing (1,2) Render PCL: commands to select tray may be inserted into the PCL stream by a FOP extension, if page breaks can be caught at the right time in the renderer. Question: when and how does a page-sequence show up in the renderer? o local, single document printing and archiving - Render PDF - have the user print pages with manual feeding - configure 2 printers: tray 1 and tray 2 and build an AcroScript prompting the user to print 2 sets of pages o Formatting and Rendering - run FOP twice - rendering PCL and PDF in one run: is not very difficult to program - just private, modified FOP code. Compatibility question: is the PCL renderer at the capapbility level of the PDF renderer?
