Convert many HTML files into several PDF files [closed]

Question

Is there a tool or a program for Windows with which I can convert a lot of HTML files (approx. 3000) into individual PDF files?

I can only find requests for a single PDF everywhere, but I need to convert each HTML file into exactly one PDF file.

Yes. In Windows there's a command line solution you can use, wkhtmltopdf. Download here. Make sure installation directory is on path.

Or if you have chocolatey installed, you don't have to worry about adding it to path because chocolatey will do it for you. Just open an admin CMD shell and type:

choco install wkhtmltopdf

Then navigate to the folder that has your HTML files and create a new text document. Input the following and save it as convert.bat.

@echo off
for %%x in (*.html) do wkhtmltopdf "%%x" "%%~nx.pdf"

Just remember, if you are using the GUI with notepad when creating a new text file, when saving the file, go to file, save as, and change the type to 'all files' and then use the file name with the bat extension, convert.bat

You can then double click this batch file located in directory of your HTML files and they will be converted to PDF.
