DocxToPDF

Batch DOCX to PDF conversion through Microsoft Word.

A macOS TUI that searches DOCX files, lets you select them with the keyboard, and exports PDFs through Word's native renderer.

Problem

Manual DOCX to PDF export is slow, and non-Word converters often break document layout.

What I built

I built a keyboard-driven macOS TUI that finds DOCX files, lets the user select batches, and drives Word's native renderer.

Result

The workflow keeps document fidelity high while removing the repeated open-export-close loop.

Audience

For Mac users who need reliable DOCX exports without opening every file by hand.
