Conclusions Articles

If necessary, the user can convert a Word document for free (in Doc or DOCX formats) in pDF file. Conversion to PDF occurs using a virtual printer and programs: Microsoft Word, LibreOffice, OpenOffice.

I present to your attention the PDFCreator program. That's the original name, yes. It is essentially simple PDF. Printer. But he has a special pribrud - he knows how to convert many files to the neighboring path.

In general, batch converters came across. They are usually paid and offered a trial version. Yeah, tried. No wonder the same trial. Some of them printed full crap to me, killed Borders on the tables, they shifted the elements and did not print for some reason some pictures. Others were printed normally, but at the bottom of each page they pulled out their advertising. It, of course, can be removed by purchasing a program, but it stops one (except for the difficulty of payment) - one file from two pages I was converted about 10 minutes! Actually! I almost thought that the program was hung. But no, the files were born.

In general, PDFCreator is deprived of these shortcomings. Printing a document occurs pretty quickly. Qualitatively. Borders do not disappear, pictures too. Nothing moves anywhere. Everything's OK. There is no advertising. And another bonus - this program is absolutely free! Yes, and with open source. It's just some kind of holiday!

How to convert many documents to PDF in batch mode

So how to use the program? First you need to install, of course. Then we run PDFcreator.

This is nothing but a PDF printer print queue. First of all, we need to do so that when adding a file queue, it has not yet tried to print them until we configure everything. Therefore, we climb in the "Printer" menu and click "Stop". There should be a checkmark of the name of this item.

Now add files. You can use the "Add" button in the panel, but I just allocated everything files And dragged them to the pdfcreator window.

Then there is magic. PDFCreator asks if it is possible to assign yourself a default printer. You need to answer "yes." Do not be afraid, it is temporary and necessary just for automation. Then it starts to open files one after one and press "Print" for each. Since it is the default printer, all these files appear in the print queue. Of course, it looks not very. In my case flashed Word. But it is worth it. In general, we are waiting.

When all documents appear in the print queue - it's time to configure exports to PDF. To do this, go to the "Settings" menu and configure. It is important to climb into the "Autoship" tab and set it up. In this case, PDFCreator will not ask you where to save and how to call each new converted file. To the output files are called the same way as originals, but with another extension - you need to specify in the "File Name" field
