Batch Processing Application Window
The Batch Processing Application window consists of document list, conversion log pane and toolbar.
Document list
Middle part of the Batch Processing Application window displays a list of documents converted or queued for conversion. Each line in the list corresponds to a single document. The list has following columns:
- File - shows original document file name;
- Status - shows the conversion status of the document, i.e. whether the file waits to be converted, is being converted, has been converted successfully or an error occurred at conversion;
- Output File - shows output file name.
To add documents to the list, you may either click Add Files or Add Folder button or simply drag files or folders to the application window. To delete documents from the list, use Del Selected or Del Completed buttons.
Conversion log pane
This pane is shown at the bottom of the window and displays conversion log records for the document selected in the document list. You may analyze this log to check the conversion process progress or, if a problem have occurred, to determine the cause of it.
