Batch Convert Image to PDF

A friend of mine was looking for a way to batch-convert images into PDFs. Here’s a simple algorithm for converting JPG to PDF using jpg2pdf.org. Since I use a Mac, the tutorial will be for Mac/Linux.

For Mac, install Brew from here.

View the code on Gist.

For Linux, install imagemagick and poppler-utils.

View the code on Gist.

Use this one-line script to convert all images in the current folder.

Does this thing stitches images into one PDF? If No, is there a way to stitch the converted files into one? Maybe this is a lame question.

  No it does not. But you can use kpdf to merge multiple pdf into one.

I do not know whether it’s just me or if perhaps everyone else encountering issues with your site.
It appears as though some of the written text on your content are running off the screen.
Can someone else please provide feedback and let me know if this is
happening to them as well? This might be a issue with my browser because I’ve had this happen before.
Thank you

Right here is the perfect site for anybody who hopes to find out about this topic.
You understand so much its almost hard to argue with you (not that I actually would want to…HaHa).
You certainly put a fresh spin on a topic which has been written about for a long time.
Excellent stuff, just wonderful!
