batch creation of pdfs from html files with linked png files

New Here ,
Jul 03, 2018 Jul 03, 2018

Hi Forum!

I'm running Acrobat Pro XI with Win7.

I have a lot of html files with embedded png files that I need to convert to pdf files. They are stored locally on my hard drive.

If I right click the html file and choose "convert to adobe pdf" it works like a charm.

However, I can't do that for hundreds of files, so I tried to use the menu "batch processing".

No matter if I use the folder option or select individual files (always the two files that belong together) or just one pair of files, the result is a pdf file that just displays the png picture.

The rest is missing.

What can I do to make the batch processing work?

Thanks a lot!

It will always convert all of the files in a folder. Not the best decision, but there it is. So you would get one PDF from the converted HTML and its referenced graphics, and one from each graphic in the folder. Ok unless the graphic is something.png when the HTML is something.html, which will end up with only one file, unpredictable which one.

You don't need to select the image files in the batch process, only the HTML files.

Beautiful!

I guess the folder option is not an option in my case, but I can live with that

Thank you very much!
