I have a Webstar 4.2 server on a G3 imac running IE4.5 browsers on a mac
ethernet intranet. I have created a form which allows users to select a
range of required pdf files for printing.

So these files get printed on your printer, right?


At the moment the form is mailed to
me as labels and values and I manually print the documents x the number of
copies required through acrobat reader.

OK, seems reasonable.


I am sure the process can be done
automatically using some kind of script but I am a beginner and am not sure
where to start.

Actually, any script you would write would not be legal to deploy as use of Acrobat (any portion thereof) on a server is a violation of their End User License Agreement.

You would need to find an alternative PDF printing solution that can be run on a server, such as Ghostscript (<http://www.ghostscript.org>).
