I have a folder of 150,000 pdf files and I need to copy 20,000 of them to
another folder.  The ones I need to copy are in a .txt file.  Attached is a
sample of the input .txt file and a dos directory of the folder containing
the files.  I'm not sure of the best way to accomplish this.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Sample input file:

12347424
12347425
12347426
12347427
