ExportPDF Settings

(OP)
I wrote a script to draw a drawing with 2 sheets (not including model space). This script is part of a larger macro program I created and the program will be used by people who have never seen CAD Software.

I have a licensed version of Adobe PDF but the problem is that you cannot "Print" both sheets to PDF using a script. The user will have to click to print both sheets, and then later combine them.

I tried ExportPDF which printed both sheets but it has two big issues:
(1) You cannot print monochrome, all line colors appear.
(2) Linescales are not present. All lines are the same thickness.

Does anyone know of a way to either change the exportPDF settings or to batch print files to pdf?
