Bug Description

I think a useful function would be the ability to print several layers into one pdf, as in the attachment.
The file was generated using gerbv from gerber files, currently the simplest method for me to make legible project documentation.
This requires the ability to configure the order of layers and colors of each of them and a mirror image for the bottom layers.

Now, theoretically, we can print the composition of several layers from KiCad, but without the possibility of configuring anything.
I tried to do the same with the use of scripts, but changing the colors is also impossible in this way(or I don't know about something?).
