Is it possible to run Acrobat from the command-line as part of a batch job.
 
I want to create PDF's out of text documents daily as part of an automated job that will run in a Windows environment.
 
Thanks,
 
Jonas

You can use the IAC API in the Acrobat SDK to run Acrobat from an external program.
