Batch convert file to OCR PDF

Hi
we want to survey a software that offer these function：
1. Batch convert file( MS office / PDF / JPG / TIFF ) to OCR PDF automatically.
2. Multi-threaded conversions functionality.
2. Support API .
Is Adobe Acrobat XI Pro can work?

No, Acrobat would not be suitable for this purpose.
Also, be aware that the idea of converting a “born digital” document (such as an MSOffice file) to an “OCR PDF” makes no sense.

Why can I not download a converted file (xl from pdf)?

I have a converted file (XL from PDF) but I cannot download it. Never before had a problem. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Peter,
I'd like to assist!
What is happening when you try to convert from PDF to Excel? Are you receiving a specific error message? Was the file an Excel doc prior to being converted to PDF?
Looking forward to hearing back from you.
Kind regards, Stacy

Batch convert files to 4x6 with copyright?

How do you batch convert files to 4x6 with copyright?

How do you batch convert files to 4x6 with copyright?
You need to create an action in PS (include a conditional option for both landscape and portrait). With this action ready you can select the files in Bridge, use menu Tools, Photoshop / Batch and inhere choose the action you created and let it run.
For the action itself you might want to visit the PS forum for more details, it is not easy to create a watermark on each image but possible. Just try it and explore.

How do I batch convert files from pdf to pdf/a

My company is scanning a bunch of old documents and wants to store the files as both pdf and pdf/a. Many of the files have already been scanned as pdf, is it possible to convert them en mass to pdf/a? Or must we continue to do them one at a time?

XI Pro is better, the algorithm that fixes a PDF so it passes the compliance check is better. Not foolproof but much more likely to succeed than the one in Acrobat X.
As Test Screen Name says you can automate saving to the untagged versions of PDF/A (such as PDF/A-1b) using an Action, simply by creating a new 'empty' action and changing the Save step options. In most cases it'll work, but if the input file is wildly out of compliance it can still throw an error. The biggest problems tend to originate with font embedding and when the PDF has comments applied.
PDF/A versions with tagging (e.g. PDF/A-1a) are horrendous to create after the fact as you will almost certainly be hit with a long list of things you have to manually correct. Acrobat can't automate the fixes this time as it has no way to understand the semantics of each page. It's very strongly advised that those types of file are created directly in the authoring application (though Adobe has yet to implement that idea in InDesign, you can do it in MS Office).

Help with Illustrator Script! Batch convert files including subfolders - please help! :)

Hello,
I honestly have tried reading the other answers and researching to try to solve this problem. I'm sorry for my ignorance in this area. Please help!!!
I'm trying to make a script (for Illustrator CS2) that will batch convert several files to PNG files. The source folder has several subfolders and I need the script to go into the subfolders and convert those files as well. The destination directory should be an entirely separate folder but with the same hierarchy as the original source folder.
The script I have been using (that converts just as I need) is below. The only problem is it doesn't do the subfolders.
Any help would be so amazingly appreciated!

Batch converting files to JPGs

Is there any way to batch convert your photos in iPhoto to JPGs? Or does anyone know of a plug-in that could do this?

Jenny
In the File -> Export dialogue you'll get the opportunity to change the files to jpeg, and it'll do as many as you ask it.

[Thread moved from comments forum to Acrobat forum]

Hello again. I took the long weekend off, so haven't replied for a while.
While trying to set up a few documents out of the package I wanted to create, I discovered that there
is only one file that is causing the problem.
The biggest problem is that it is a confidential financial file, and I'm loathe to put it up on the web.
I'm going to try to re-create the file without the confidential part, then send it to this forum. I can't
figure out why it should cause problems when all the others don't and they have all been created by
the same person with the same version of Office.
So thanks for your help so far. I really appreciate the quick response from a couple of you. I will get back to you.

How can I use Automator to batch convert files of various formats into pdf files?

I am very much a novice. I need to convert approximately 10,000 documents into pdf format. (No, I'm not exaggerating.) I have searched and found various Applescripts that will do it for Word documents, but have even been unsuccessful using those. Each of my attempts ends up with some sort of error.
The documents are in mixed formats: Excel, Word, PowerPoint, OpenOffice (.odt), and .jpeg, I even have some Clarisworks/Appleworks files, but those I'm happy to deal with separately if need be.

Batch Convert .msg emails to PDF with Acrobat

Seem to be having a problem converting a large amount of emails to PDF using the Acrobat plug-in in Outlook 2007. Following are system setup:
Office 2007
XP Pro
Acrobat 9 Standard
We have a large volume of emails stored in Worldox GX2 and I want to convert them to PDF from Outlook. I check the files out of Worldox to a local folder and drag and drop the .msg files to a folder in Outlook. When I try to select any number of them and then convert to PDF I get the following error:
Details of Email to PDF conversion:
Failed to Convert:
From: , Subject: , Date: , Status: Not an email message
This happens even if I try to convert just one email. HOWEVER, if I open any given email then by double-clicking it in the outlook folder and then file-convert to PDF, it converts fine. What?!?!
Any help would be appreciated!!!

Thanks,
I just found that out, too.
What I'd like to find out is how to fix this.

Converting Files to Adobe PDF

Hi Guys,
I am running Windows XP SP 3 on all 120 computers in my workplace.
We use Adobe Acrobat 8.0 / 9.0 on most of our computers. We have the print to pdf functionality and use it quite extensively.
I have been having this problem since day one and havent been able to resolve it. When ever we print to PDF, it could be a word document or an excel spreadsheets with multiple workbooks, it never PDF's it to one file. It always spreads it over multiple pages. I have tried going into preferences and tried looking for something that might say, Print to One Document or print to one file, but couldn't find anything.
Now we have reached a stage wherein we are having Excel Workbooks with 24 pages and Word documents spanning over 200 pages and its a nightmare trying to convert them. We end up having 30 - 40 files that then we drag and drop to form one PDF document.
Is there any easier way to force the PDF to PDF all documents to one file rather than multiple files?
I'm using Office XP / 2002 / 2003 in my environment with all servcie packs.

I'm having the same frustration converting publisher files to
pdf files. I used to be able to convert 2003 publisher files to
Acrobat7.0 standard but now that I have Microsoft 2007 nothing
seems to be compatable. Help.

Won't convert files using Export pdf.

I have installed export pdf and used it successfully over the last two years .My subscription is recorded as paid. When I try to convert i get an error message " An error occurred while trying to access the service"
I tried Adobe support and eventually got referred to an advisor in Asia. Who tried to help but there were difficulties in the conversation. He asked to access my machine and i had to go to a link for Adobe Connect. This just kept hanging. So I was asked not use Mozilla but go to Explorer I did this but explorer would not accept the link and when I said that to my contact he disconnected the phone. Altogether i wasted around 40 minutes on the phone.
As you cannot e mail Adobe it would appear I would have to restart that length process with possibly the same result.
Anyone any ideas?

Hi K nicholls,
Are you using Adobe Reader to access the Export pdf service to convert the file.
If so please update Reader to the latest v 11.0.10 and then check. Also make sure you are signed in with your Adobe ID in Reader.
Can you please also try signing in to the web url: https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf with your Adobe ID and check if you are able to convert the file or not.
Regards,
Rave

CS3: Any way to Batch convert files from different directories?

Using CS3. I want to open a bunch of TIF files and re-save using different file options. The only way I know to do this is with File > Automate > Batch. But that only works if the destination folder for all files is the same. It's not.
Ideally I would not need to first open the files in Photoshop. Perhaps something with Bridge will work. Tools > Photoshop > Image Processor looks promising. There's even an option called "Save in same location", which does not do what it says so is totally useless.

>Bridge and Finder. They might both be running, but they are two programs that aren't Photoshop to do one simple thing Photoshop should do already by version 11.
The whole point is that Bridge is supposed to be used as an integral part of the CS4 SUITE.
I keep Bridge CS4 running at ALL times (it uses a minute amount of resources when it is just in standby mode) and I consider it to be an essential adjunct to Photoshop particularly if you deal with digital camera files.
I use its "Get Photos from Camera" to download from my card reader in preference to Nikon's download program; and I open whole batches of RAW files for processing in Bridge-hosted ACR 5.2.
ACR 5.2 also handles scanned Tiffs and JPEGs.
And I use Bridge to output Web Galleries; attach files to e-mails; collect aliases of all the files of any kind (and from any folder) that are needed for a particular project into a single Collection: and generally to organize file storage throughout my System.
The only thing that I can't yet do directly from Bridge is to burn a Collection to a CD or DVD.
Hopefully, someone like David Franzen will create a Script to do that too?

Batch converted emails in single PDF. Graphics show as "?".

Uisng, Acrobat Pro 9. How can I get the graphics to show?

I'm using Outlook 2003 and Adobe Pro 9. I have the Acrobat Pro Toolbar in Outlook. I select multiple emails, then click on "Create Adobe PDF from Selected Messages", located in the Acrobat toolbar. The new document opens, but any graphics appear as blue boxes with a question mark in the middle. These graphics are very small and appear to be links to the originating website.
I originally tried a lot of messages at one time, then only three or four at a time. The result is the same.
This process worked perfectly in the past. The graphics appeared in the newly created PDF as they did in the original emails. I don't know if I inadvertently changed a setting or if an update made one that affects the way graphics appear. I've hunted around the preferences, but I haven't found anything that seems relevant.
