Is there anything worse than getting a bouquet of Word documents in an email for review? I’ve got 7 as attachments to a single email, and what I’d really like is one PDF. Getting from 7 doc
s to 1 pdf
is, however, no easy feat.
First, textutil
does not convert to pdf
— for some reason I thought it did, so I was bit surprised when I typed in:
textutil -convert pdf *.doc
and my system responded Nah ah!
My workaround was to convert to docx and then use pandoc
, but I got one error after another … and there is nothing worse than trouble-shooting latex
installation problems.
Oof … this is going nowhere.
