Download build: [x86 (most compatible)](https://fier.me/software/batchprint/x86.zip)/[amd64](https://fier.me/software/batchprint/amd64.zip)
## Prerequisites
- [Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=26999)
## Compatibility
Has been tested with Windows 7 and 10, and should potentially work with Windows 2000 and up. Both 32-bit and 64-bit systems are supported.
## Running from source
You can run batchprint directly from its pyw file, if you have these prerequisites installed via pip:
- pywin32
- pillow
- QtPy
- a Qt module compatible with qtpy (try PyQt5)
## Compiling
You can compile portable files as well as the installer (soon) by running `build.bat`. It requires [curl](https://curl.se/windows/) in your `%path%` or in the script's directory. It will pull all required resources and build exe files without making changes to your system. If you are using a 64-bit OS, it will build both 32 and 64-bit versions. You can find the distributables in `build/ARCH/dist`.
