DOCX to PDF Converter

Overview

This skill converts Word documents (.docx files) to PDF format using LibreOffice's conversion engine. It's designed for batch processing - you can convert multiple files at once without manually opening each file.

Key Features:

Batch conversion of multiple DOCX files
Preserves original filenames (changes only the extension)
Provides clear summary of successful and failed conversions
Uses LibreOffice's conversion engine for high-quality output

Workflow

Step 1: Run the conversion script

Execute the conversion script with all uploaded DOCX files:

python3 /mnt/skills/user/docx-to-pdf/scripts/convert_to_pdf.py /mnt/user-data/uploads/*.docx

Or for specific files:

python3 /mnt/skills/user/docx-to-pdf/scripts/convert_to_pdf.py /mnt/user-data/uploads/file1.docx /mnt/user-data/uploads/file2.docx

The script automatically:

Converts each DOCX file to PDF using LibreOffice
Preserves the original filename (e.g.,
```
contract.docx
```
→
```
contract.pdf
```
)
Saves all PDFs directly to
```
/mnt/user-data/outputs/
```
Tracks successful conversions and failures
Provides a summary at the end

Step 2: Present files to user

The script saves PDFs directly to

/mnt/user-data/outputs/

, so use the

present_files

tool to share them with the user along with the conversion summary.

Output

PDF files: Same name as original DOCX, saved in
```
/mnt/user-data/outputs/
```
Console output: Summary showing:
- Total files processed
- Number of successful conversions
- List of any files that failed to convert

Error Handling

If a file fails to convert:

The script continues processing remaining files
The failed filename is logged
At the end, all failures are reported to the user
Common failure reasons: corrupted files, unsupported features, file access issues

Technical Notes

Uses LibreOffice headless mode for conversion
Conversion quality: ~90-95% identical to Word's "Save as PDF"
Works with standard DOCX formatting including:
- Text, paragraphs, headings
- Tables and borders
- Images and shapes
- Basic fonts and styles
May have minor differences with:
- Complex embedded objects
- Rare font combinations
- Advanced Word-specific features

Limitations

Only processes
```
.docx
```
files (not
```
.doc
```
or other formats)
Requires LibreOffice to be installed on the system
Output quality may differ slightly from Microsoft Word's native PDF export
Very large files (>100MB) may take longer to process
