Hi I have created one action in the guided user options of acrobat pro. What it does is basically convert PDF files to XLS from a specific folder path, and result files will be available in another folder path. I do this action by opening adobe and run the job, is it possible to automate this action. E.g if I want to do this daily, can it run automatically on a specific time. Please help.

Acrobat Pro itself doesn't natively support direct scheduling of actions.

Nor can this be done legally. Check  your license agreement.

Thanks @Thom Parker  and @Nesa Nurani  for the quick comments. 

 

Is there any solution adobe can provide for my purpose ? basically I have a paid version of Pro and manually when I convert I like the perfection of output other than all free tools. Hence would like to see the Beauty of adobe convertion, with automation.
