Batch saving large # of .ai files to PDF

Hi,

Is there a way to take a large number of Illustrator files and batch save them as PDFs? Thanks!

Hi there,

When i 'acrobat > create multiple pdf files' i can't import the .ai files either. BUT i can drag and drop the .ai.

Odd, but works here.

(but actually i wanted multiple .ai's merged into one pdf, so i ended up choosing 'acrobat > combine files into 1 pdf'..)

Cheers, Ed'

Check your Scripts folder for a script to do what you want.

But that only saves open documents.

Or record an Action in Illustrator and use the Batch option from Illustrator's Action Panel to apply it to a folder full of Illustrator files.

That's much easier. For dome reason the other way suggested here I couldn't import the .ai files!

In Acrobat Pro:

File > Create Multiple PDF Files

Drag and Drop files to window (or use the menu)

Fill this out as desired

You can also batch with Distiller, but that is now obsolete.
