I created a workflow and saved it as an automator application and it doesn't work.
It was copied from an article on how to convert PDF to word ( and other formats)
It work at one time but only recently tried it again and now it doesn't work.
Any suggestions?
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10), 2.5 GHz intel core i5 with 12GB mem
You could try contacting the author(s) of the article.
Well thats kind of a silly answer. I told you it worked once upon a time so if it doesn't work now something must have changed.
Here is the work flow if it works for you I have a problem if it is correct and it doesn't work for you then Automator isn't working correctly.
Open Automator, choose make workflow. Click on files and folders in the leftmost column then drag ask for Finder Items from the second column to the large window.
Next click on PDFs in the leftmost column and drag extract PDF to text to the large window below the first item.
Press cmd S gave the workflow a name and chose Application from the popup menu.
When I run the application it creates a txt file but it is blank.
I mis-read your post.
You'll have to determine what has changed outside of the automator task between the last time it worked and now.
Automator applications stopped working
