Converting multiple files using pdf2htmlEX

Question

How do you use pdf2htmlEX on multiple files or on a folder that contains pdf files?

I am able to convert single files just fine, but I obviously don't want to run a command 100 times for 100 files.

I couldn't find anything in the documentation and something like '*.pdf' doesn't work.

Thanks!

One option is using a script to do so:

Create an script and put this content: (for this example we call it mypdf2html.sh)

Put this content inside (notice that it deleted the previous folder)

rm -rf html
mkdir html

for (( i=1; i<118; i++ ));
do
    infile="apcPage"$i
    pdf2htmlEX --zoom 1.3 $infile".pdf" ./html/$infile".html"
done
