Need help in converting the files reading the content from a flat file in a batch. New to the batch. Please see.
Source folder would be having all the reports.
xpdf would be containing pdftotxt.exe which would convert pdf to text file.
Dest folder would be having the converted content.
daily_report.txt would contain the pdf files which need to be converted.
While source would be searched, it would pick all the files mentioned in the daily_report.txt with today's date, convert it and move it to the destination folder. So in the destination folder, there would not be the date part. It would be same in the flat file.txt.
The files would be looked upon for 2 hours in every 5 mins till all the files are found or the time is reached. If not found, it would be written to the error log.
Please note: there are few spaces in the file name.
