Convert several pdfs to html using Acrobat



I'd like to use Acrobat DC's "export to pdf" option on a bunch of pdf documents. I tried using tools--> Action Wizard --> New Action. This allows me to apply that action to a whole folder, but for every single file prompts me how to name and where to save it, meaning one needs to stay in front of the computer all the time or it won't progress.


"export to pdf"


tools--> Action Wizard --> New Action



Is there another way to automatically perform such a repetetive task, specifying the folder for the output files only once and then letting it run automatically?



(Context for the interested readers: Ultimately, I want to convert the pdfs to txt. However, some pages contain tables, which contents I do not want in the final txt files. So the idea is to use Python and parse the html to delete all tables.
From my tests, I've also found that Acrobat seems to better recognize tables and create appropriate tags than Python modules such as pdf2htmlEX and pdfminer. So if anyone knows an alternative way to achieve this, I'm also happy)



Thank you very much!



Edit: Found a solution that kinda works: So far I had only tried the Export PDF action, which, as described above, did not work automatically but gave a prompt for each individual document. Using the Save option in the action wizard instead seems to work better. This option allows to specify some additional settings, including a different file format to exporrt to, and then applies the operation to all files autimatically without stopping after each single document.


Export PDF


Save

Firebase Auth - with Email and Password - Check user already registered

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Firebase Auth - with Email and Password - Check user already registered I want to check when a user attempts to signup with createUserWithEmailAndPassword() in Firebase user Authentication method, this user is already registered with my app. createUserWithEmailAndPassword() 8 Answers 8 To detect whether a user with that email address already exists, you can detect when the call to createUserWithEmailAndPassword () fails with auth/email-already-in-use . I see that @Srinivasan just posted an answer for this. createUserWithEmailAndPassword () auth/email-already-in-use Alternatively, you can detect that an email address is already used by calling fetchSignInMethodsForEmail() (previous called fetchProvidersForEmail() ). fetchSignInMethodsForEmail() fetchProvidersForEmail() When the user trying to create an user with same email address, the task response will be "Response: The email address is already in use by another account." mFirebas

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Dynamically update html content plain JS So I have a script bound in my index.html, which literally has to fetch an array of jsons from an api, then dynamically update my page when get response. But as a result I'm getting an as the only update of my page. here is my script fetch(url) .then((resp) => resp.json()) .then((resp) => resp.results.forEach(item => fetch(item.url) .then((response)=> response.json()) .then((response) => pokeArr.push(response)) .catch(console.log) ) ).catch(console.log) const filler = () => if(!pokeArr) return 0 pokeArr.map((i,j)=> return `<tr>$i.name</tr>` ) const pokeindex = () => document.getElementById('a').appendChild(document.createElement(filler())) pokeindex() When I'm consoling it, I can see in the console all the responses I get, so I'm at least doing the fetching part right. What's parberakan ? What's pokeArr ? – T.J. Crowder Aug 8 at 12

How to determine optimal route across keyboard

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP How to determine optimal route across keyboard I'm trying to automate the typing process in a video game. Players are given an on-screen QWERTY keyboard layout that they can navigate with the control stick (up, down, left, right) in order to select a letter to type. I was wondering if there was a module for Python (or some other resource I could explore) that would help my program find a path across the keyboard as it types each letter in a given message. In other words, if the first letter typed was "A" and the next letter was "B", the module would know that the program should move 1 space down on the keyboard and 4 spaces to the right. Currently, I have the program resetting to the "G" key after each letter is typed (allowing me to use fixed-directions as the program parses each character in the desired message). As you can imagine, this is quite inefficient and defeats the purpose of automating the typing in the fir
