1. It would be AWESOME to have a reverse version of this, so that I can convert PDFs to text so that I can use PDF ebooks with my iPod!

3. I wonder if it’s possible to record an action that has “print” / “save as PDF” that will work for you?

5. Given up – still running. Not convinced this works – unless a long file name or similar is causing this to croak?

6. This app/plugin seems to be broken under 10.4.2, I’ll check with the dev.

7. Not sure if anyone is interested, but I have a PDF to Text action. It’s written in Objective-C and it takes multiple PDF pathnames and outputs a string containing the contents of all of them.

9. very slow, opens the application, when i quit the application it processes the next file though, but i don’t like it, the output is garbled in some documents.

11. It is completely inert. It does nothing. It converts nothing and installs nothing.

12. Not so bad :)

    I thought it could also do it with .doc files but it doesn’t. Someone knows where I could find that ?
    .doc to .pdf ??

13. Ah never mind people. If you go on Bee Documents website you’ll find an update version of the script. It does what it say in the read-me file :)

    Batch convert .doc to .pdf : http://www.beedocuments.com/otherproducts/texttopdfconverter.html
