Ok, here is the situation. I have several thousand pages of documents (all stored as jpg's) from my research at the library of Congress. They are stored in iPhoto, where I can easily do basic photo enhancements. I have groups of documents I want to put into PDFs (anywhere from 3 to 30 images). I can select multiple files easily. I can click print, and it will start the print process - but the PDF option which is everywhere on the Mac does not exist in either iPhoto or Aperture. Nor, like in a PC, is there an Adobe Acrobat PDF Print driver to choose from. Right now I am stuck selecting the files, and dragging them to an empty folder on the desktop. Multiple-select, and then right click Open with Preview. From there I can select print and use the PDF settings to create a PDF of several pages. This works, but it is annoying, and seems to involve more steps then it logically should.
I am told I can use automator for this, but that program is like greek to me, and I have not figured out how to accomplish that task. Anyone in the OSX world have any suggestions? Is there something really simple I am missing? I spent a couple hours on it today and only got frustrated. And even a google search produced nothing.
