Default Making PDF files for large number of WORD Docs

In you orignal posting you did not say you wanted one file from 2,500 files.
;-)
If you use the Adobe, File, Create PDF, from Multiple Documents, this will
combine multiple files into one PDF. Also you have the option to do this in
batches as there is an option to combine a new batch into an extisting
combined file.
Hope this helps

In you Conversion Settings take off "View Adobe PDF result" and "Prompt
for
Adobe PDF file name". You should then be able to go the Windows Explorer
and
multi select many files, Roght Mouse click, Convert to PDF, and this
should
work OK. I am using Adobe 7 Pro and this works fine.
Also within Adobe 7 there is the option to File, Create PDF, From multiple
files, that works well.
Maybe some else here may have a macro that will do this for you.
I probably would not do all 2,500 docs at one time! ;-)
Hope this helps

I have about 2500 docs.
Each is of one page.
I have to make a PDF for each of these docs...one PDF for each doc.
Now at this is what I have to do.
1. Open a doc.
2. Print it (to PDF)
3. Close it
Repeat the process.
Is there some kind of automated way of doing it

PS
I am using Acrobat 8 for making PDF files
