Question

I need to convert multiple folders to multiple PDF's

Hi!

In Acrobat Pro DC, is there any chance that i can create multiple PDF's from multiple folders?

Let me explain myself: I have multiple folders with JPG's. I want each folder to be a PDF consisting in it's content images. I can do it one by one, but i think there should be a better way to do it. I've found that in past versions of Acrobat it could be done by batch processing, but there's no such option now in DC.

I'm using Acrobat Pro DC 2015. Thanks for the help.

Do you mean that you want to merge all the files in each folder as a single PDF, or just convert them to individual PDF files?

Both are possible but merging requires using a script. To just convert the images to separate PDF files all you need to do is create an Action (under Tools - Action Wizard) with some small step, such as Set Initial View, and then run it on your folder. It will convert all non-PDF files to PDFs.

Thanks for answering so fast! What i mean is that i need to be each folder containing images as a PDF. For example, if i have 10 folders with 30 images each, i need to have 10 PDF's containing 30 images, each named in a different way. Thanks again!

That requires using a script, like this one I've developed: Custom-made Adobe Scripts: Acrobat -- Batch Combine All PDF Files in a Folder

(however, it requires that you first convert the image files to PDFs, and then it can merge them)
