Convert to eps

Question

Hello,
I found a solution for batching Adobe Illustrator (automatically) with VBS without start it  (batch).
Now I am looking for a possibility to convert a PDF file to an EPS -file with Adobe Acrobat XI Pro also without to start it.
I found the possibility with JavaScript BUT ONLY INSIDE Acrobat XI. What I need is a possibility to do it "outside" Acrobat XI => with batch.
Can somebody help me?
PS. sorry for my english ;-)

Karl you are great! Thanks!
With "your" (from the article)  help I wrote this:
In C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\Javascripts
I create a  "folder level JavaScript"  file with:
function asEPS(EPSName)
console.clear();
console.show();
zpath = "/C/Users/me/AppData/Local/name/";
this.saveAs(zpath + EPSName +".eps", "com.adobe.acrobat.eps");
this.CloseAllDocs();
return "OK";
Then whereever create a .VBS-File with:
StartFolder = "C:\Users\me\AppData\Local\name"
Set gApp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")
Set gPDDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")
Set FSO=CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set Folder=FSO.GetFolder(StartFolder)
For Each File in Folder.Files
  If FSO.GetExtensionName(File.Name) = "pdf" Then
   DateiName = FSO.GetBaseName(File.Name)
   gPDDoc.Open(StartFolder & "/" & File.Name)
   Set jso = gPDDoc.GetJSObject
   jso.asEPS(DateiName)
  End if
Next
Done.
Now I can call the VBS-File (with a double-click) and Acrobat will create EPS files from ALL *.PDF -Files in Folder "C:\Users\me\AppData\Local\name"
Thank you so much!
