How to: Save many PDF files containing images as jpeg

I have a whole lot of PDF files that only contain images. I need them to be in jpeg format however.
To convert them I'd need to open all theses pdf files in Preview and then "save as" jpeg. This does the job wonderfully.
But it only does so for one pdf/image at a time. There's no way I can do this for all the files.
I need to preserve the pdf files' names, too, so I can't combine the files and insert them into one pdf. This would result in having jpegs all right, but with names that do not represent the original file names.
How can I batch process this with Preview?
I tried the Automator but haven't found any way of doing it there.
Does anyone have an idea how to accomplish that?

Hi PPAC,
What version of Windows are you running? I found another thread about this particular issue, with two possible solutions. One is to make sure that you're logged in as an administrator, and the other is to change the compatibility to earlier version of Windows. (Right-click the Acrobat application icon, choose Properties, and then choose compatibility.)
I'm also curious what export settings you're choosing when you save as JPEG...
Best,
Sara

  • How to break the PDF file into images?

    How to break the PDF file into images? There should be settings in Photoshop CS 6 that imports PDF file and break it into images.  I have a short instruction:
    2.    Open the file in Photoshop.
    3.    A new window should open to Import PDF.  Click on images, not pages  import pdf into Photoshop.doc
    4.    Select all the files shown (shift + click), Click O.K.  Four files should open on your screen.
      Was anybody successful with that?

    Whether this is available solely depends on the structure of the PDF and whether it actually contains whole images that can be extracted separately. Depending on whatgoing on in the PDF this may simply not be the case and the images have been tiled and split up in multiple "objects" whose appearance can only be retained by rasrerizing the whole page...

    I dont think you can save the data into sap tables in PDF format.
    With the above code you can save data into an internal table.

  • How to save my PDF file from Acrobat to my document in my Adobe Reader in my iPad ???

    I can't save my file from the Acrobat to my iPad Adobe Reader ....... This make me difficult to save things in my iPad ..... I really need someone help !!!!

    You can move any pdf file from your computer to your Reader iOS app with the iTunes application using its sync capability. You can also place the pdf on the web and use Safari or email it to yourself (and use Mail) to get the pdf into Reader for iOS. When you get a link to a pdf you can tap the link to view the pdf file file. When viewing the pdf file you can tap the pdf file again and you will be given a choice of applications you can use to opening the pdf file in the app will transfer the pdf to the application's sandbox.

    I am having a issue with a file that I created in Adobe lifecycle and then tried to fill out the form in adobe reader 9.

  • How can I save a PDF file sent to me in an attachment to my iPhone 5s

    How can I save a PDF file or word file sent to me as an attachment directly to my iPhone 5s so if I want to read it I don't have to dig into my ail every time?

    You will need to select the attachment and open in another app.  If you do not have any apps that support PDF, Adobe reader for iOS is free.
    For MS word files, you will need an app that supports those, like Documents to Go. 
    There is not generic file storage area in iOS, so you need to "open in" an app that supports that file type so that app can then add the file to its sandboxed local storage area.
    If you need to markup the PDF, some good apps are GoodReader, iAnnotate, PDF Expert, GoodNotes - there are numerous others as well in the App Store.

    The same way you save ANY email attachment... which is going to depend on the email program you use... so check with support for your email program (or the help file to learn how to save an attachment)
    When you OPEN a PDF attachment, what program are you using... Acrobat or Reader... both have options to save files

  • How to open a pdf file and then attach it with images

    I am new to Indesign Server.
    I'm currently working on a pdf.
    I have a white blank pdf template.
    that I want to attach/glue it with images.
    How to open a pdf file and then attach it with images.
    Please, help me.
    Thanks.

    First step would be to make yourself familiar with InDesign desktop version.
    Whatever you intend to achieve, do it there manually. (see regular app docs or forums)
    Then try to automate your steps with scripting (see scripting docs or forum)
    If you can do it with a script in the desktop version, that script will likely also run in ID Server. (see server forum).
    If you can specify missing features not achievable thru scripting or manual use, reconsider to write a plugin (this forum).
    A seasoned C++ programmer will need a few months to learn the basics, wade thru tons of documentation etc. Alternatively consider to hire a consultant to do the development work for you.

  • How to create a pdf file from multiple images ?

    Dear All,
    I want to create a SINGLE page pdf file from two or more page size images that are combined to make a single page pdf. Again, this question is on pdfs that are made out of several, atleast  two color images and a black-and-white mask for one of them.
    I have such pdf files from an unknown source (the producer is edited out) whereby there are three tiff images, obtained using the well known pdfimages extractor.
    When I want to make a pdf out of tiff or png or other image formats, I right click and tell Adobe Acrobat to make a pdf.
    However, I dont know how I can give a command to select say,  three tif images and specify which is the mask for which and then join  them in a way that I get the pdf from the composite of the two color images and a mask for one of them.
    Please help me out.
    I am a little familiar with the pdf structure skeleton and when necessary, fixed xref tables in one of my favorite editors. A few years ago, I also wrote a bunch of javascripts to make some annotations and needed some automation and used some itext type libraries. However, I need your help in this problem as I am now rusty and forgot some of what I studied to solve my earlier problems. This is a new problem for me. Gentle hints from you would be very nice to help me in this problem. Please specify if necessary what manual and pages to read. in the pdfspec.

    I would gladly mention that I am working on windows platform, preferably XP.

    But adding other products, for the help of an adobe products user,
    even if it outside adobe, shall add greater prestige to your company
    and give impression of user-centeredness.

    Well, just add the few pdf stanzas since you are proficient on it and
    I am presently a little rusty as I mentioned. Just asking a little
    extra yard, not even to go an extra mile.

    Well, ascii format or uncompressed format that is human readable. I
    know its a binary file, but human readable ascii version of it.
    I hope you can give me some stanza and various other approaches
    possible so I can select or combine things for myself. I see only a
    miniscule number of posts claiming to have written masks in this forum
    and then with no details.
