When the value of ! * the {@link Copies Copies} attribute exceeds 1, MultipleDocumentHandling also ! * controls the order in which the copies that result from processing the ! * documents are produced. This attribute is relevant only for a multidoc print ! * job consisting of two or more individual docs. ! * <P> ! * Briefly, MultipleDocumentHandling determines the relationship between the ! * multiple input (electronic) documents fed into a multidoc print job and the ! * output (physical) document or documents produced by the multidoc print job. * There are two possibilities: ! * <UL> ! * <LI> ! * The multiple input documents are combined into a single output document. ! * Finishing operations ({@link Finishings Finishings}), ! * are performed on this single output ! * document. The {@link Copies Copies} attribute tells how many copies of this ! * single output document to produce. The MultipleDocumentHandling values ! * SINGLE_DOCUMENT and SINGLE_DOCUMENT_NEW_SHEET specify two variations of ! * this possibility. ! * ! * <LI> ! * The multiple input documents remain separate output documents. Finishing ! * operations ({@link Finishings Finishings}), ! * are performed on each output document ! * separately. The {@link Copies Copies} attribute tells how many copies of each ! * separate output document to produce. The MultipleDocumentHandling values ! * SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_UNCOLLATED_COPIES and SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_COLLATED_COPIES ! * specify two variations of this possibility. ! * </UL> ! * <P> ! * In the detailed explanations below, if "{@code a}" represents an ! * instance of document data, then the result of processing the data in ! * document "{@code a}" is a sequence of media sheets represented by ! * "{@code a(*)}". ! * <P> ! * The standard MultipleDocumentHandling values are: ! * <UL> ! * <LI> ! * <a id="sdfi"></a>{@link #SINGLE_DOCUMENT ! * <B>SINGLE_DOCUMENT</B>}.

The * printer must not force the data in each document instance to be formatted * onto a new print-stream page, nor to start a new impression on a new media * sheet. If more than one copy is made, the ordering of the sets of media * sheets resulting from processing the document data must be ! * {@code a(*),b(*),a(*),b(*),...}, and the printer object must force ! * each copy ({@code a(*),b(*)}) to start on a new media sheet. ! * ! * <LI> ! * <a id="sducfi"></a>{@link #SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_UNCOLLATED_COPIES ! * <B>SEPARATE_DOCUMENTS_UNCOLLATED_COPIES</B>}.
