PDF is an excellent file format and you may want to convert other file formats to it. How to batch convert files to PDF to save time? This post from MiniTool PDF Editor shows you the way. You can have a try.
When Do You Need to Batch Convert Files to PDF?
Many people may use the PDF file format to store or share important files because this file format can present documents, including text formatting and images, in a manner independent of application software, hardware, and operating systems.
In other words, the font, image, layout, and other parameters won’t change or miss due to the differences in used devices, systems, or apps. This is very important to ensure the accuracy of the document.
However, editing PDFs from scratch is a tough job. Hence, many people will edit the content in other file formats like Word and then convert these files to PDF.
If you just need to convert one file to PDF, you can save this file to PDF directly. However, if you need to convert multiple files to PDF (around 100 for example), to save time, you may want to find a way to convert files to PDF in bulk.
