You can configure a Generate PDF File workflow task to generate multiple PDFs. You can either hard-code the Custom Field IDs or allow the end user to choose from a series of Web Page View fields from which to create the PDFs. In either case, the PDFs will be stored to the same Multiple Files custom field.

To hard-code the Web Page View fields that should be used to create multiple PDFs, enter the Custom Field IDs of the Web Page View fields in the Web Page Field ID# setting of the Workflow Task, separated by commas. ManualMultiplePDFs.png

When the workflow is triggered, the PDFs will be generated from the specified Web Page View fields and stored in the custom field specified by field ID in the Store to Field ID setting.
