Converting Multiple .EPS files into .PDF

Dear Forum: We have tried converting multiple .eps files into PDF using article 325977. This article in Adobe help is really designed to convert .ai files into either .eps or.pdf, our situation is to convert multiple .eps files into PDF. Everytime we run the macro, it simply takes the eps file and saves it as another eps file and does not convert. We have a "Save As" step that we have in the macro that is set to "Save As" PDF, but it still does not work. What are we doing wrong?

Setting Font for converting multiple text files into PDF using VB 6.0

Dear All,
Am converting multiple text files into PDF using VB6.0. Currently, am unable to control the font face and size for the generated files. Below is the procedure am using for each file;
Public Sub proc_convert_to_PDF(srcFilename As String, destFilename As String)
Dim p_AcroApp As CAcroApp
Dim p_VDoc As CAcroAVDoc
Dim p_DDoc As CAcroPDDoc
Dim IsOk As Boolean
Set p_AcroApp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")
Set p_VDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.AVDoc")
Call p_VDoc.Open(srcFilename, "")
Set p_VDoc = p_AcroApp.GetActiveDoc
If p_VDoc.IsValid Then
Set p_DDoc = p_VDoc.GetPDDoc
' Fill in pdf properties.
p_DDoc.SetInfo "Title", Format(Date, "dd-mm-yyy")
p_DDoc.SetInfo "Subject", srcFilename
If p_DDoc.Save(1 Or 4 Or 32, destFilename) <> True Then
MsgBox "Failed to save " & srcFilename
End If
p_DDoc.Close
End If
'Close the PDF
p_VDoc.Close True
p_AcroApp.Exit
'Clear Variables
Set p_DDoc = Nothing
Set p_VDoc = Nothing
Set p_AcroApp = Nothing
End Sub
What I need;
1) to be able to set the font face of the destination file ( destFilename)
2) to be able to set the font size of the destination file ( destFilename)
Am using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Type Library
Kindly Help.
Thanks in advance

We didn't say it doesn't work. We said it isn't supported.
There are a number of other ways to make a PDF. The one which would
give the most control is if your application directly printed to GDI,
controlling the font directly. This could print to Adobe PDF.
You could look for an application that gives control of font for
printing.
You could use a text-to-PostScript system and distill the result. You
could even look for a non-Adobe text-to-PDF.
Working in the unsupported and dangerous world you chose, the font
size for text conversion is set (and this is very bad design from
Adobe) in the settings for Create PDF > From Web Page. There is no API
to this.

Preview not saving when converting multiple .eps files to .pdf

Hi,
I have a macbook pro with snow leopard. I open a group of .eps image files using preview into the same window. I then shut the window with "cmd w". It says do you want to save all. I click save all. But then no saves are made.
If i open the group of .eps files using preview into separate windows and click "cmd w", then click save, it tries to save as untitled.pdf as opposed to "filename".pdf.
I previously used preview on a powerbook to convert .eps images to .pdf. In that version of preview the files would open in their own window. When i hit "cmd w" and save it would use save file as "filename".pdf.
Why does the newer version of preview not at least do this? Preferably the new version of preview would save all the .eps files as a batch as stated in my first sentence.
Does anyone have any ideas what i can do?

Possibly similar problem:
When I open a JPEG in Preview, adjust the quality, and try to Save As, it simply saves as the original, not the new reduced-quality file. This is true even if I save it in a new location.
- open a 200kb JPEG
- try to Save As with quality reduced to only 50kb
- it saves as the original 200kb file

How to convert a .alsx file into pdf

How to convert a .alsx file into pdf
Iam facing this problem since many days please resolve it
http://www.roothow.com
Thankls in adavance

>But, from the windows explorer, if i do a right clic on the word document, with the context menu, i can directly convert to PDF
This is equivalent to using the PDFMaker facility in Word - that is,
the Acrobat button. Which is also the same thing that is done when you
use File > Create PDF > From File in Acrobat.
What it does is print to a PS file *and* do a lot of additional
processing to write stuff about links, tags etc. into the PS file.
>(no tmp PS file is used, cause the links are still working).
This isn't true, but it's certainly the case that you won't get links.
There seems to be no API, via any mechanism, still less the "obsolete"
(Microsoft's view) command line, to use PDFMaker from your program.

Converting multiple bmp files to PDF using acrobat 7.0 from DOS prompt

I have not tried BMP files, but do JPeg, GIF, TIFF, and PNG files regularly. I simply open Acrobat, then select the graphics files in explorer and drag & drop to Acrobat. I then organize the graphics if needed (using the pages tab) and save to a PDF.

Converting multiple msft files into one pdf

HELP - i am using adobe acrobat 9 pro for macs (Mac OS X 10.6.3). when we had a pc, we were able to convert multiple files (microsoft office) to a single pdf at once without first converting them all to pdf. when I attempt this using the same technique, the images for all documents other than pdf files are greyed out and it seems that word/office documents are not a supported format for the conversion of multiple files (not listed in drop down menu) into one pdf.
I would greatly appreciate help with this. we are business users who are new to macs. we need to do a lot of this and are getting so frustrated. Thanks in advance!

How do I convert a .EPS file into a .SHP file (Shapefile)?

Hello all,
I have an .EPS file of custom regions that I need to convert to a .SHP file for a map in Mapbox. Is this possible? If so, how? Any help you can provide will be much appreciated. Thank you.

Larry,
Thanks for all of your help with this issue I was having.
We were able to import the image into Mapbox by converting it into a GeoTiff file using Python. Though this was achieved, the image did not work in the way we wanted it. In the end, we decided to grab a shapefile and created layers that replicated the image we wanted to convert. If we had more money in our budget, I would have most certainly suggested that we go the ArcGIS route.

How can i convert a .indd file into pdf

please help on this
How can i convert .indd file to pdf file using .net c#
please share some code sample for a better help

Hi there,
There's actually an easy streamlined way to do this using Acrobat.com. Here are the steps:
1. Log in to Acrobat.com with your Adobe ID.
2. On the left, you'll see a navigation menu that includes the item "Import and Edit". Click that.
3. Choose the .doc (Word) file you want to convert and upload it to Buzzword.
4. After making sure that it looks the way you want it to, go to the top menu (still in Buzzword now, not the organizer where all your files live) and click the document menu. There will be an option to "Export" - choose that.
5. When prompted to select filetype, choose "Adobe PDF" and press OK.
6. It'll save to your desktop, so now you have to get it into your acrobat.com organizer. To do that, close the Buzzword document by clicking the little "x" in the upper right corner, under the Sign Out button. This'll get you back to your organizer, where you can choose "Import" from the left nav menu again. This time choose your new PDF file.
7. Select the file icon in the organizer and click the Share button. Or, select Share from the file context menu.
8. Select Allow Anyone With A Link To Share This Document to set the document to open access, and then click Copy Embed Code. The necessary HTML code to embed the preview is copied onto the clipboard.
9. Open the HTML file and paste the code into the file. The Flash previewer can display any file type that you can convert to PDF.
Hope this helps! Good luck, and let us know how it works out.
