Batch Folder To PDF Converting in Acrobat DC

New Here ,
Oct 05, 2021 Oct 05, 2021

Under Create PDF, there's the option to make a directory of JPG/PNGs into a PDF using the 'Create Multiple PDF Files' -> Add Folder feature and it works fantastically. However, I have a bunch of sub-directories and was wondering if there was a way to create a batch action to turn all sub-directories within a folder into their respective PDF files? Currently that's only possible by doing it one directory at a time, and I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions to make an action file to automate the process for all folders within a directory.

 

Thanks

Problem solved. Get a hold of a linux machine and install ImageMagick. This will do the trick:

for i in *; do convert "$i/*.jpg" "$i.pdf"; done

change jpg/pdf for source/output as need

 

I figure if you're insane enough to need this, you can probably figure out Linux.If you're not, just do it manually using the tools in Acrobat

Good luck!

You don't need a linux machine for this.
