Here is what doesn’t work… (going from tiff to pdf)…

When using this script it saves only the first page. not all, am I missing something?

How can I convert a multiple page tiff into a multiple page PDF?

The first is the unix pstopdf

The second is Mac OS X 10.5.3 Quartz PDFContext

The second is far more efficient producing files around 40% of the size of the first.

Am I right in thinking you have used pstopdf?

The PDF will then be opened in Preview (or your default PDF viewer) and you'll need to save it. It's not fast since it runs an applescript and a shell command for each image so if you have a lot of images it will take a while. The images will be sorted based on name (ascending order, e.g. image01, image02, ...) in the resultant PDF file. The sort order can be changed by editing the workflow. I've submitted this for inclusion at AutomatorWorld. <a HREF="http://homepage.mac.com/rhettbull/.Public/Convert%20images%20to%20combined%20PDF.zip" rel="nofollow">Convert images to combined PDF</A> Cheers, Rhet</p> Here’s a workflow based on this Convert Images to PDF that will take multiple images and convert them to a single PDF.

Thing that is cool about this script is that created pdfs are 4 kb and still fairly readable quality.</p> <p>billy<em>the</em>kidney@yahoo.com</p> I second the notion for Image Capture to scan a set of input pages as PDF!
