Export Postscript Files to Encrypted, Searchable PDF Documents With a Single Command

Export Postscript Files to Encrypted, Searchable PDF Documents With a Single Command

Every so often, I find myself staring at a mountain of Postscript files, wondering how to make sense of them in a more accessible format. You know the drill large batches of Postscript or EPS files that need to be converted into PDFs for easier handling, archiving, and sharing. But what if there was a way to streamline the whole process and even add security features like encryption and password protection, all with a single command?

Well, that’s exactly what the VeryDOC Postscript to PDF Converter Command Line tool offers. Let me tell you, this tool changed the way I approach Postscript conversions. Whether you’re a developer, a business owner, or anyone handling large volumes of Postscript files, it can save you serious time and effort.

A Game-Changer for Postscript to PDF Conversion

If you’ve ever found yourself bogged down by the slow, clunky process of converting Postscript files into PDFs, you’re not alone. Many tools require complex setups, rely on external printers, or simply don’t scale well for batch processing. That’s where VeryDOC’s Postscript to PDF Converter Command Line shines.

This isn’t just another tool that relies on printer drivers or third-party software like Ghostscript. It’s a standalone utility that converts Postscript (PS) and Encapsulated Postscript (EPS) files into PDFs directly and it does it quickly.

Features That Make It Stand Out

• No external dependencies: Unlike many converters, it doesn’t rely on Ghostscript or Acrobat Distiller. This makes the whole process faster and simpler.

• Batch processing: Need to convert hundreds or even thousands of files? This tool allows you to automate the entire process with scripting. Whether you’re using BAT files, Shell scripts, or VB scripts, you can integrate this tool into your workflow effortlessly.

• Encryption options: You can password-protect your PDFs with 40 or 128-bit encryption. Whether you need a “user password” for viewing or an “owner password” to restrict editing, this tool has got you covered.

• Text-searchable PDFs: Not only does it convert your Postscript files into PDFs, but it also ensures the PDFs are fully searchable in Adobe Reader. No more digging through pages to find information!

• Merge & Burst: You can merge multiple PDFs into one or burst a single PDF into individual pages. Perfect for managing reports or combining multiple scanned documents into one file.

How I Use the VeryDOC Postscript to PDF Converter

I recently had a project that involved converting hundreds of Postscript files from various vendors into PDFs. The goal? Make them searchable, add some metadata, and ensure they were secured with encryption. Normally, this would have taken me days, especially since many tools require you to manually tweak settings or rely on external software. But with this tool, I got it done in a few hours. Here’s how:

1. Batch Conversion: I wrote a simple script to point the converter at a folder full of Postscript files. The tool handled the conversion in batches no sweat. The time-saving factor here was massive.

2. Encryption: Once the files were converted, I used the command line options to add encryption. I specified an owner password and restricted editing, ensuring the files were safe for distribution.

3. Merging PDFs: As a bonus, I merged multiple PDFs into one document with a single command. This made the final file easier to manage.

I didn’t have to worry about manually adjusting settings every time, and the tool worked flawlessly for me.

Why You’ll Love It

• Speed: Conversions are faster because it doesn’t rely on printer drivers or third-party apps. You can run it in batch mode, which is a game-changer when handling large volumes of files.

• Customisation: The ability to add encryption, set document metadata, and even rotate pages during conversion makes it super flexible. Whether you’re securing sensitive legal documents or just tidying up files for easy access, you can tailor the output to your exact needs.

• Simple Integration: Whether you’re working within a server-based workflow or running a simple batch job, this tool integrates seamlessly into your system. Developers will appreciate its flexibility, whether using it as a command line utility or integrating it into larger applications.
