Hi all. I have a large number of pdfs that I need to process into text files. I know that if I feed file1.pdf to pdftotext, it will write file1.txt. So, I tried doing pdftotext *.pdf , but got the program's help message, instead of bash expanding the filenames, and a bunch of .txt files. Since my bash programming is next to nothing, is there a way to do what I want without a script? Could I somehow get bash to expand the wildcard, and feed the individual files to pdftotext for it to spit out txt files? Thanks for any help in advance. Greg
