An easy one? Print Explorer folders graphically

[Jake]

Hi,

I need to print a complete directory structure as it is displayed in
Windows Explorer's Folder View with yellow graphical folder glyphs.

A utility which converts folder structure to PDF would also be ok.

I have searched the net, but most such utilities outputs text files or
spreadsheet data. I just want the folder names (and possibly their
size) as a graphic tree.

Thanks for tips on utilities which can do this

regards

software like the one in http://www.faststone.org/ or Corel Capture, the
paste the clipboard in Word, then print word to pdf printer like

Hi,
Thanks for the suggestion but that would be several pages of folders and
I don't have time to glue everything together.

I thought there were software out there which traverse a directory tree
and build such graphical folder structures?

Hello -

Have you tried the tree command in a command prompt? I know it is
just ASCII but it might do the job ...

Yes, quite a bit of formatting is required to get the desired aligned
output.

Really? You just need to use a non-proportial font such as Courier
New to get it aligned correctly.

How about a screen capture?

I think his problem is that this would be too large to display in one
piece on the screen. So he would have to "glue" the pieces together.

Open a command prompt (start/run cmd), go to the folder of choice.

Run "dir> file.txt". This will create a text file of the contents of the
folder that you can open in notepad for printing or saving.

If you wish to add the contents of the subdirectories, run "dir
<drive><folder> /s> file.txt".

FastStone Capture can capture a scrolling window and produce a very long
(high) screenshot in one go. Never failed on me.
