    Is there a way to do this in windows?

    if not, is there a way to combine many txt files into one document easily either on a pc or mac so that I can print just one document?

    Thanks

    In Windows explorer, can't you just select the docs you want, don't open them, then right click, print?

    no idea... I jsut dont want any document to actually open because the folder i have contains about 200 txt files of 1.2 pages each.

    try what hulllabalew said, but just test it with 3-4 files.

    It should work, but it will open them and close them after sending the print job...

    I think that way will open up the docs and then close them, which could bog you down if you have so many.

    Try this.

    Go to Control Panel->Printers
    Double Click the printer to open up the print queue.

    Drag and drop all the files you have into this window.

    That should work. Alternatively, to concatenate all files into one big file, go to the command prompt and do something like 'copy *.txt onebigfile.txt'. Omit the qoutes, of course.
