Batch convert multiple Google Docs to PDF

When you need to export an entire folder of Google Docs, converting them one by one wastes time and invites mistakes. Batch conversion lets you select multiple documents and produce PDFs in a single operation.

1

Select documents in bulk

Select the files in Google Drive, or open the Docs to PDF side panel and pick a whole folder. The extension exports every Google Doc and Word file in the selection, so you don't have to open each one.

2

Consistent output

Each document is exported with its own page setup (size, orientation and margins from File > Page setup in Google Docs), using Google's own PDF export. Align the page setup of the documents first if a batch has to match.

3

Automatic file naming

Each exported PDF takes the original document title as its file name. To control the names, rename the documents in Drive before you export.

4

Where the PDFs go

The PDFs are saved to Google Drive: next to the originals, in a folder you pick, or in a new folder you name during export. Files that can't be exported, for example because the owner disabled downloads, are reported so you can deal with them.

5

Where batch export shines

End-of-quarter reporting, course material distribution, and archiving shared drives are common scenarios. Any time you have more than a handful of Docs to convert, batch mode pays for itself in minutes.
