Export keeping input folder structure

Post by masster »

Hi
The subject of the topic is self-explanatory.
I can't find the option to save the results keeping the folder structure of the input folder.
Am I missing something?

Hello, masster

This is not yet available, but is coming in time. There are a few other topics on the forums about this, such as this one here, where a ticket is mentioned:
Daniel - PDF-XChange wrote: Mon Dec 23, 2024 4:39 pm [...]We do not offer this yet. While The %[FolderTitle] macro itself is working correctly, what you are looking for is a new macro we do not offer yet. A ticket about this just a few weeks ago, which I will add your support to:

RT#7212: FR: add %[RelPath] macro for PDF-Tools output.

I cannot offer a timeline for when this will be present[...]
Kind regards,

Hi Manuel,

I have to disagree with Sean :)
We actually implemented the %[RelPath] feature a few releases ago.

How to use it:
1. In the Choose Input Files action, select the Source folder and make sure to enable Look in subfolders.
2. In the Save Documents action, set Folder to Use custom folder specified, and configure the Filename field using the %[RelPath] macro. For example: "%[RelPath]\%[Filename]"

The output will be saved to the selected destination folder while preserving the input folder’s structure.
