Q: batch convert appleworks to pdf in same folder

I need a script that will work in 10.5.8 on a powerPC machine (iBook G4) that will allow me to scan the entire drive for Appleworks documents, open them in AppleWorks, print to PDF, apply the same name and save in the same folder.

 

A bonus would be to also delete the original AppleWorks file while it's at it.

 

Anyone written something like this? I see some solutions that batch convert to PDF into a default folder - all I need is to save in the original file folder and delete the original doc. Of course I will be making a clone of the afected system beforehand.

 

Thanks in advance for any responses,
