Abstract

Methods and system for allowing a user, through a user computer in telecommunication link with a system having access to electronic documents, to select pages of an electronic document for printing in a single batch process are provided. One method includes providing a user interface having a first user selectable element and a second user selectable element; displaying to the user, through the user interface, the pages of an electronic document; allowing the user, via the first user selectable element, to select individual pages of the document desired for printing in a single batch process; storing the user selected page information in response to user activation of the first user selectable element; allowing the user, via the second user selectable element, to print in a single batch process the pages of the document that the user has selected for printing in a single batch process; and retrieving, in response to user activation of the second user selectable element, the stored user selected pages information for printing of those pages of the document selected by the user.
