Hello,
I have a folder structure that contains well-sorted documents. I would like to print them all, always with the folder name as the front page in front of the respective files that are inside. Is there an easy way to print a folder and all subfolders?
Is there a way to transform this into one pdf? Or to send the printing order via terminal?
Thank you for your help,

Get the free BBEdit text editor. Once installed, open a new text window, and drag and drop a folder onto it. It will open an expanded tree diagram with folders and their file contents in alphabetical order. Then File menu :> Print…
As an example, here is a expansion of my Pictures folder's Beaches folder. It contains two folders named BoraBora and Infinity:
A PDF is not a container for files and folders, only the print representation of what you see above in my example. In BBEdit File menu > Print… > PDF > Save as PDF…
No feature in macOS permits bulk printing by pointing an application at a Finder parent folder and having it walk down that folder hierarchy and open and print each document in order.
Thanks for the quick answer. Its not what I was looking for, sorry if I didnt write it clearly. I need to print all the 100+ pdfs and .doc files that are inside the foldes too. This is actually more important than the in between pages but what you offered is actually a great first page!
So: how can I make a pdf with all the files of the folders in it?
