Export for NConvert button - not building bat script

New to the forum and XnView products. I searched the forum for an answer to this but did not find one.

I'm using XnConvert to TIFF files in one location to PDF files while retaining the folder structure. It works fine through XnConvert but I was hoping to use the Export for NConvert button to have my settings in the GUI version exported for nconvert's command line functionality. Maybe I'm missing something but when I click the Export button it generates a .bat file but all that is contained is the word nconvert and none of the commandline switches.

Either I'm doing something wrong or that button is not intended to do that.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the quick reply. Looks like I was expecting something from the button that it was not intended to do.

Are you using XnConvert 1.70 or an earlier version?

In a quick test with 1.70 I get this code in the exported .bat which does include the [very basic] action selected:

Code: Select all

nconvert -rotate 90
