HINT 1: It is highly encouraged that at least during the initial creation of the command lien that you use the Verbose (/V) switch to see what the status of your conversion is and get any error messages.
HINT 2: It is highly suggested you first attempt your task using the User Interface prior to attempting to create an equivalent command line. Reasons for this are:
· Make sure what you want to do can be done at all
· Makes you aware of exactly what must be specified in the command line
· Also, you can very quickly test the command line by doing the easiest of all approaches, specifying a 'Conversion Job' file.
HINT 3: A mistake can be made easily when constructing a command by confusing the file type constants for SPECIAL PROCESSES and the file type constants for CONVERSION of files. The file type constants are used with the /F# and /C# to specify original and target file types respectively. Be certain you are using the appropriate constants.
