Bulk pdf's export to png by sequence

Question

Can anybody tell me what's wrong with following sequence?

Result when starting is a window that appears to overwrite the current pdf while I want a new created png file of that current pdf file.

I have hundreds of pdf's and a sequence would be helpful.

var re = /.*\/|\.pdf$/ig;

var filename = this.path.replace(re,"");

this.saveAs(filename + ".png","com.adobe.acrobat.png");

Kind regards

So, the script did not do anything in my case. I did not change anything on the script, but then I went to dig into some other settings.

I have chosen following output settings.

Result is ok!

Do not ask me why the script doesn't do the same... That's still an open question for me.

I created a new sequence (see capture1)The code can you find in my first call.When I run the sequence, following message appears:My conclusion was: something is wrong with script because the pop-up says that the pdf will be overwritten.The problem still occurs as you can see above. No png is created at all. Acrobat X professional is used, friday update to DC.
