Outputdir = r"C:\Users\Paul\Documents\web\ykfp\Par16\Presentations\pdf" How to Convert a PDF to a PPT with Open Source 1. I suppose if you wanted to avoid overwrite, you would have to use try-except somehow. By default, the SaveAs overwrites files in the output directory if they already exist, which is fine by me. I tried a couple times to get lines 13 -15 combined into one line, but I don't have time for that kind of elegance. Now the pdf files are written to a different folder, outputdir. #for file in [ ppt for ppt in os.listdir(dir)įiles = glob.glob(os.path.join(dir,"*.ppt*")) I haven't tried it with presentations (but for a quick test now), but I expect that it will work nicely. I have only used it to batch convert ods to pdf and it works perfectly.

It works like this: unoconv -f pdf presentation.odt This command will create a presentation.pdf file. Now if I can just direct the output files to a different folder, I'll be done.ĭir = r"C:\Users\Paul\Documents\web\ykfp\Par16\Presentations\YBSMC 2016 Thursday" Use man or type unoconv -h to get actual command line options. Your suggestion to change ppt? to ppt worked well to pick up both the old and the new file extensions. It is quite literally a one step process. Fast & Simple PPT File Conversion: Our online PPT to PDF converter converts PPT files in a fast and simple way. PowerPoint opens up, shows a little "publishing" progress bar for each input file, then Powerpoint shuts down. So, if you are looking for a 100 free way of converting PPT files to PDF efficiently, this is the tool for you. I'll read up on this.) So I replaced the sys.argv with my dir variable in line 25, and it ran. (Still, I don't understand entirely how this magic works. I set the path explicitly, then got side tracked with a for loop to test the list contents, lines 18 - 23, now commented out, and when that part showed me a good list of files, I almost put lines 25- 27 in the for loop, but then thought, hey that's what the glob.glob part is supposed to do. Thanks, Darren, that's a lot like what I came up with on my own.

But it seemed to run to completion, giving "returned exit code 0" in the PythonWin bottom bar, but I can't find any output pdf file on my system. Running the script in pythonwin made it easier to insert an input file name as argv, and I didn't hit any of the win32 errors.

I'm running ArcGIS 10.3.1 on a 64 bit Windows system, so it looks like python 2.7.8, so I tried the install of win32 2.7 32 bit. Looking through posts at Geonet, I found that I was having this problem with win32 back in 2006, and the easy way out is to run it in PythonWin. Newname = os.path.splitext(filename) + ".pdf"ĭeck = (filename)įiles = glob.glob(os.path.join(sys.argv,"*.ppt?"))įirst I tried running the script in IDLE, but first hit No module named, then after I installed pywin extensions for python 27, 32 bit, I got ImportError: No module named win32api. If I can see this run once then I can extend it to loop through the whole folder and write to different output folder. I have a couple folders of PowerPoint files that I need to convert to PDF files, and I thought it would help me practice some python to see if I could script this task. The PDF converter is always available online and is completely free.This isn't a GIS question, but I thought maybe someone could help.
