If you select (highlight) each file and then right-click, there should be a
"Print" menu option that would let you do it. Careful though, because it
still uses Word and your computer might get really slow if these are big
documents.

You can select multiple files by holding down CTRL as you click on them, or
drag a box around them with the mouse. If its all the files in the folder,
do CTRL-A ("Select All" )
