Using Command Lines

You can use Command Line when you want to use batch commands in order to call third party converters without using a user interface.

To make sure you are writing the commands correctly, follow the following guidelines:

• Every line has to start with a program name (the converter program).

• Inputfolder - user has to enter their own data (this is the directory)

• OutputFolder - user has to enter their own data (this is the directory)

• anything with "-" the text has to be written as is

• [ ] optional text

The following table describes the available commands that should be used and how to use them:
