Convert all files to pdf via command line Windows

Convert all files in folder to pdf

This should work for various types of

Microsoft Office ( Word , Powerpoint etc ) files

Okay I am on Windows system so I don’t have many luxuries which you might have on Linux system.

But here we go

1)

We need some utility to files to pdf.

http://www.cutepdf.com/

Download this utility to get virtual pdf printer on your system. Remember to set it as your default printer.

2)

Get list of all files

Go to folder where your files are

And run following command

dir /s /b > filenames.txt

This will run dir command and send its output to file names filenames.txt

3)

See the command line parameter stuff for your office product.

Example

Power point 2010 its

"c:\program files\microsoft office\office14\POWERPNT.exe" /P "MyFile.pptx"

Now use some tool like Notepad ++ to generate command for all files you got in step 2

Done
