How to create batch for single PDF from multiple files: each PDF for each folder with multiple jpeg files ...

Question

Hi, I'm sorry for my bad english ...I need to create single pdf from multiple jpeg files into folder 1 ... and another pdf from each files into folder 2 ... and another from folder 3 ...I can perfectly create a pdf file from multiple jpeg files. My question is whether I can create a batch to automate the procedure (I have more than 300 folders with inside about 90 jpeg for each, and I have to create a pdf file for each folder) ...I do not want to manually create pdfs for each folder ...Can you create a rule to convert jpeg files to each folder and merge them into a single pdf, a file for each folder?Thank you for your helpFlaviano

This can be done as a three-step process:

1. Run an Action to convert all JPEG files to PDFs

2. Run an Action to collect the paths of the PDF files (you will need to remove the JPEG files first, though)

3. Run a script to merge the collected paths to single PDFs.

You can use this tool I've developed to do steps 2+3: Custom-made Adobe Scripts: Acrobat -- Batch Combine All PDF Files in a Folder

Step 1 can be easily done using a blank Action.
