Question

Batch convert images to PDF

I have tried to create a   "Batch Convert Images to PDF" task.

It looks like it is running fine, however, each time, somewhere after 80-90 files have been converted Acrobat crashes.

I have no idea why.

There are a few threads on Internet about converting images to pdf, but regretfully none of them I could use.

Either they were for some older versions of Acrobat (steps do not correspond with my version), or the answer was vague/unclear to me.

I am using Acrobat XI Pro on Windows 10.

Have tried to create a task as per below.

Three questions:

a) how to have the task run minimized (if at all possible)?

b) how come Acrobat gives up, after say 80 or 90 files?

or

c) is this task/sequence, the way I set it up,  wrong ?

I am sorry if the screenshots are too big!!

Have no idea how to upload them as a small image.

Thanks!

What happens when you use it without OCR and optimization?

I haven't tried that one out yet. Thing is that 90% of the files contain text and I'd like to have the text OCR'ed so a desktop tool, like X1 can index the contents.

btw: Acrobat crashed at 1090 files the time before that last session. At the last session it crashed at 175 files.

Folders only contain jpg and png files.

Makes no difference, regretfully so. Adobe Acrobat has stopped working .. after 1081 files.

Likely Acrobat has an issue handling larger number of files.
