The OP doesn't say what operating system he is using, or what he is actually trying to accomplish. If the intention is to convert multiple odt files to PDF, then why wouldn't the macro links that I provided do the job? Yes, you'd need to bring up OOo to use the GUI, but the macro allows you to select multiple files from multiple directories/locations and then do the conversion. I've tested the first link (http://oooconv.free.fr/batchconv/batchconv_en.html) on OOo 2.02 and it worked just fine for me. I've not tried the second link (http://blog.vojta.name/archives/2005/04/03/T23_43_03/) solution, so it may or may not work. As an alternative I suppose that the OP could http://www.google.com/search?q=odt%20to%20pdf&hl=en&lr=&sa=N&tab=gw or http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=OpenOffice+to+pdf&btnG=Search and perhaps experiment with the PyUNO bridge? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
