Batch

Run one tool on many files at once.

Steps

1. Click Add files or Add a folder, or drop PDF files on the page.
2. Under Tool, choose what to do to every file: Compress, Protect, Stamp, Properties or Redact. Protect adds a password or removes each file's password, as chosen on the Protect page.
3. Batch uses the settings of the tool's own page: the compression strength, the password, the watermark or page numbers, the details to write, the words to redact. Change settings takes you there; changes apply here at once.
4. Choose the folder under Save to and click Run on all.

Each file gets its own result in that folder, named after it, such as report-compressed.pdf. The originals are not touched, and an existing file is never replaced.

The list shows each file as Waiting, Working, Done or Failed, with the reason when one fails. A file that needs its permissions password must be opened once on the tool's own page first.
