Hello,

I have a database that has a number of rtf and eml files that I would like to convert to pdf formats. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a way to convert all the files.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I don’t know about eml files, by you can always print_to_PDF any file that is printable. RTF files will work. Use the print command and then click the “PDF” button.

Thanks for the suggestion, but ideally, I’d like to select a number of files and convert. It would be very time consuming to select and print and print to pdf, one document at a time…

Conversion of RTF to PDF is scriptable with:

/System/Library/Printers/Libraries/convert

See another post for sample code.
