How can I batch process many .pages documents to PDFs?

Latest OSX. Latest Pages. Has anyone got a script, or can tell me how to batch process some 40 Pages documents into PDFs rather than having to load one at a time and exporting manually?

I can't do the whole process for you but here is the basic Automator workflow that would be a start:


User uploaded file


The last step would be to Record the sequence of Print or Export to PDF with the parameters that you want.


Or you can create an AppleScript to Tell The Pages Application to open document and export document to file as PDF


The AppleScript could be freestanding or a part of the Automator Workflow.
