How to configure Destination folder for action which gets executed on multiple subfolders?

I can extract all images separately using Acrobat DC. Following the steps below:

1. Open file in Acrobat

2. Go to Tools> Export PDF > Image > (select any image type like tiff)

3. Select checkbox 'Export all images' and Export

4. Select folder and name on Save As dialog

I have created an action for the same to automate this. Settings reflect in screenshot below:

I have a folder with multiple subfolders, each containing multiple pdf files. For each subfolder, I want to extract the images and put in one folder. How can I automate this using "Action Wizard"? I can't find an option to configure the Destination folder?

Can this action be called from a command line arguments? such that this can be scripted in a batch file?

As of now there is no support for this. All the output files will be saved in a single folder.

I will raise a feature request for you. We will update you if this feature is implemented in future.

Thanks.
