I need to batch convert a set of .doc or .docx files to .pdf in terminal, not using a GUI.



It would be helpful if I could batch-process multiple files.



I would also like to maintain as much meta-data as possible.

lowriter can be used as a command line tool (lowriter is a part of LibreOffice)



lowriter --convert-to pdf *.doc

convert /home/bodhi/Documents/testdoc2.doc -> /home/bodhi/Documents/testdoc2.pdf using writer_pdf_Export

convert /home/bodhi/Documents/testdoc.doc -> /home/bodhi/Documents/testdoc.pdf using writer_pdf_Export



evince testdoc.pdf


I do not have windows, so testdoc download from here
