How to: move .pdf files from Downloads to a selected folder

I'd like to move all PDF files in my Downloads folder to an arbitrary folder that I select in the Finder.
Can I do this with Automator? How?
I haven't figured out how to set the selected target folder in the workflow.
John

Thanks, Niel, though I underspecified the problem a bit because I knew how to do the rest in Automator; unfortunately, I know even less about Applescript.
How do I also specify that the file names must begin with a specific text string (e.g. "journal.").
John

    How to move PDF file from Spool to Application Server?
    Cannot use RSTXPDFT4 because that converts OTF to PDF and the file is already PDF.
    RSTXPDFT5 doesn't work. It picks the file up and assigns it a 'text' type and outputs a 1 line txt (1kb in size) on the server with the spool number in it!
    The program which outputs the file to the spool, in the first place, uses adobe forms and outputs to a printer of type PDF.

  • How to create PDF files from word with non-selectable content

    Hi folks,
    I am creating a PDF from a newsletter in Word (using print to Adobe PDF).
    I have checked the options available in the printer, but there are none that seem to allow this.
    I want to prevent the recipent from being able to click on obvious graphic objects e.g. signatures, within the newsletter and copy them to clipboard. I appreciate you can do this still with a screen capture, but I want to make it difficult.
    Is this possible?
    TIA

    That looks like it should work, but it doesn't.
    I opened the PDF I had created from Word in Acrobat (X Pro). Went to File > Properties. Selected "Change Settings". I then enabled "Restrict editing...", set a password, set "Printing Allowed" to "none", "Changes Allowed" to "none", and ensured that "Enable copying of text..." was disabled.
    I saved the PDF file, closed Acrobat, opened the PDF in Reader, and I was still able to select text and graphical objects.
    I reopened the PDF in Acrobat, and the document summart still shows everything as allowed. When I click on "show details" (from File > Properties) it shows the correct settings.
    Any ideas?

  • How to copy pdf files from computer to ipad

    how to copy pdf files from computer to ipad

    You can PDFs to the iPad, but first you need one or more apps on the iPad that supports PDFs - unlike a 'normal' computer the iPad doesn't have a file system, and everything on it has to be associated with an app.
    Options include free apps such as Apple's iBooks app and also Adobe Reader - and paid-for apps such as GoodReader (which also supports read-only of other documents types).
    For iBooks you can first add the PDFs to your computer's iTunes via File > Add To Library, and you can then sync them by selecting the iPad on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (on iTunes 11 you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC) and using the Books tab on the right-hand side to select and sync them.
    For Adobe Reader adnd GoodReader you can use the file sharing on the Apps tab on the right-hand side to copy them over : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4094

  • How to generate PDF file from HTML file using Acrobat API's

    Hi,
    I want to generate a PDF file from an HTML file on server side(C# .Net).
    Their is a COM interop called "AcrobatWeb2PDF" availaible but could not find any document regarding how to use it.
    I cant use "Adobe live cycle PDF Generator" as we just have license for Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional.
    Please help...
    Thanks and Regards,
    Anand Mahadik.

    > It is hard to believe that Adobe doesn't provide a toolkit for generating PDF files, so many web based applications have vector based content that needs to be converted to PDF!!!!
    They do, it's just not free (A company in business to make money? I'm sure IBM would never think this way... ;)). As mentioned you have Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator, which you can customize and extend with Java. You also have the Adobe PDF Library SDK, which is written for use with C/C++ although if you license it from Datalogics (the only company in NA Adobe allows to license the PDF Library) you will also get .NET and Java interfaces (part of the DLE - DataLogics Extensions).
    > There must be a way to generate PDF dynamically on a server or from Javascript!
    JavaScript? Not really, no. As far as I'm aware JavaScript has no file system access capabilities without some form of intermediary (like sending the data to a webservice that writes it out to file). How would you create a PDF file with JavaScript?
    The PDF Standard is also in ISOs hands now (ISO 32000-1:2008), it is no longer owned by Adobe - you can download a copy of the specification from them and write your own library based on that as well.

  • How to move a file from a page to another one in a wiki?

    Is it possible to move a file from a page to another one in a wiki (wiki server 4)?

    Files uploaded via "+" button and "Upload File to "My wiki name"" can be moved just like normal wiki pages by clicking the "sprocket" button and selecting "Move to Wiki"
    Fils attached via the "paperclip" button when editing a page, must be downloaded first, deleted from the initial page and reattached to the new page.

  • How to import PDF files from email

    When I try to download PDF files from emails the file just disappears. What am I doing wrong?

    Or send the file from your computer to your ipod by emailing yourself the pdf. Then if you open the Mail client and you open the pdf there is an option to select open in ibooks. It will save it to your device for remote viewing.

  • HT204365 How to email pdf files from iBook in iPad?

    Why I can only see "print" but no "email" button when i open my pdf files in iBooks? As far as i know i should be able to email my pdf files from ibooks right?

    Yes you should be able to email a PDF from iBooks. When you tap the arrow in the upper left the option should appear.
    Maybe some basic troubleshooting steps will help.
    Quit the iBooks app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Or .... Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    You may want to consider deleting the app and reinstalling. Tap and hold down on the app icon until it jiggles, then tap the X on the icon. Tap the home button to stop the apps from jiggling. Download iBooks again.
