Ah - I get it. Well, you could open a terminal window and type
ls -1 >files.txt
to list the file names to a file. Then exit from terminal, open the
files in TextEdit, paste them together and print to PDF. Using a "-l"
(a lower case L) instead of a -1 (the numeral one) will make a "long
format" listing with file sizes and so forth.
