Covert multiple FM files to pdf siumtaneously?

Hello All,
I have about 2000 files of FM6.0 on my hard disk which has to be conerted to pdf for different reasons. I found that there is a possibilty to convert these fm files to pdf online with "Create Adobe PDF online" by uploading each file one by one. But is there any possibility to convert all these files in the same folder at once and save under the same name but just in pdf format (should not combine the files)?
Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Venkat

Create a new, empty book file (File > New > Book). You can store it anywhere; however, it might be convenient to store it in the folder with the files you want to print.
Add the documents to the book and save the book file. I would not add all 2000 documents, but only a managable number, maybe 50 to 100. Try only 10 the first time to make sure everything works as you want it to.
Then print the book file (File > Print Book). In the print dialog, select Adobe PDF as the printer, select Generate Acrobat Data if you want bookmarks, hyperlinks, etc., clear Print to File, select Save Book As Separate File for Each Document, and click Print. FrameMaker will then create a PDF for each file in the book. Once that is finished, delete the files from the book file, add another set, and repeat. As you become more comfortable with the results, you can increase the number of files in the book. I do not know if Framemaker has a limit to the number of files that can be in a book.

Any Tutorial / Sample to create Single PDF from multiple source files using PDF assembler in a watched folder process.

Any Tutorial / Sample to create Single PDF from multiple source files using PDF assembler in a watched folder process. I have a client application which will prepare number of source files and some meta data information (in .XML) which will be used in header/footer. Is it possible to put a run time generated DDX file in the watch folder and use it in Process. If possible how can I pass the file names in the DDX. Any sample Process will be very helpful.

If possible, make use of Assembler API in your client application instead of doing this using watched folder. Here are the Assembler samples : LiveCycle ES2.5 * Programming with LiveCycle ES2.5
Watched folder can accept zip files (sample : Configuring a watched folder to handle multiple input files and write results to a single folder | Adobe LiveCycle Blog ). You can also use execute script to create the DDX at runtime : LiveCycle ES2 * Application Development Using LiveCycle Workbench ES2

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.

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?

Live cycle ES2 can covert Frame maker file into PDF??

Hi All
good day!!
I have read that live cycle can covert farme maker files into pdf .
is it true . we are using live cycle ES2 and we are going to upgrade FM 8 (unix) to FM 11 .
can we convert frame maker files into pdf using Live cycle ES2????
you response highly appiciate!!
thank you
ramesh babu

Possibly, but ES2 is only specified to convert FM7.2 & FM8 files. FM11 might work, but you would have to test it and it's most likely not supported by Adobe in this mode. See: http://www.adobe.com/products/livecycle/pdfgenerator/formats.html
If you only need to create PDF output from existing FM files, then Datazone's DZbatcher or Omni Systems fmbatch (part of the mif2go product) utilities may suffice.

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

Hi,
I have a requirement to convert multiple BMP files in a folder to one PDF.
I can use multiple file conversion option in acrobat to combine and convert them to one PDF .. but I have 2000 such folder to conver to PDF.
PDF should be name after the folder name.
Is there a to automate this in acrobat.. or can we run this conversion from DOS prompt using commands.. so that I can create a bat file and have them converted. Pls let me know.
Thanks
Pugazh

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.

After I covert my excel file to PDF, my images are cut off or not appearing at all HELP?!

Hello!
I am creating a Exel Work book and converting it to a PDF file (easy to share online).
Once I convert the Excel Work book, some of my images are cut off or not appearing at all.
Which I find weird because some images pop up just fine.
These images are originally flats from Adobe Illustrator I converted to pictures with Excel.
So why is that when I convert my workbook to a PDF file some images show through and others don't?
Please Help!
ORIGINAL EXCEL FILE
Once I save it as a PDF File. Other pages are fine except this one?

Correction for above: 'Bit depth' not ' Bid depth'

Creating multiple page files from PDF templates

I have a PDF file that is 3 pages. When I create the 3 page template form through Acrobat 8 Forms, and then it is placed in Lifecycle designer, I can save it. All of the fields that I create remain in the file. But, I cannot add another page (PDF template) to this Lifecycle file. I have to go back to the original PDF file, add the page, and then import back into Lifecyle, and add back all of the fields. Can I just save a text file with the correct XML code, and then paste it back in after I add another page. I tried it, but didn't have much success.

Yes it is possible,
All you need to do is create 3 destinations each of type Flat file.
For your data target link to the and Open Destinations1, link by creating a transformation. and while create DTP use filter A.
Again for your data target link to the another Open Destination2, link by creating a transformation and while creating DTP use Filter B.
similarly for Open Destination3, use Filter C.

Automator: Cannot convert multiple .doc files to PDF

Hi everyone!
I can't get my automator to print PDF files correctly. Once I have run the workflow I try to open the files and they are "messed up" preview and adobe both tell me that the "File cannot be opened. It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize."
When I go to Automator I see an error message - (1728) The object you are trying to access does not exist. However, if I manually create the PDF from Word or Pages, I have no problem.
I really appreciate the help, I need this to grade student papers and I have 200 students. Figuring this out would really make my life better.
Thank you for your time!
Diana

Here's the screenshot.
I tried using several different files and it seems not to be the problem.

How do I convert a folder containing multiple jpg files to pdfs

I have to convert several folders containing jpg files to individual pdf files. I can't seem to do this.

You could use Acrobat XI Pro to Create PDF from Files.
This process lets you select supported file formats and outputs PDF.
Be well...

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

Error when trying to convert excel files to pdf

I'm getting the following error when trying to convert .xls and .xlsx files to pdf, using the "Create PDF" option:
Error message from the primary converter:
ALC-PDG-010-012-PDFMaker reported an error while printing the document.
Word, Powerpoint and Text files convert without any issues. Also I'm able to opent the excel files and convert them to pdf using the acrobat option in excel.
Livecycle Version: 10.0.2, GM
MS Office Version: 2007
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Suhail N.

It is always difficult when you need to convert multiple xls files to pdf or multiple sheets to pdf. If you have a single file to convert then the best method would be to copy your data to doc file and then convert it into PDF . If you have multiple files to convert then it is really difficult to convert all the files manually. Then the better method would be to use converter tool to convert excel to pdf . By doing this you can convert many files in just few seconds.
