I have a directory of 30 or so pdf files, and 10 of them won't export their fields to a text file for me.
I'm using the Javascript Editor in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 in the Batch processing portion of the program.
The program is very simiple it looks like this:
var fname = this.documentFileName;
this.exportAsText(true, null, fname + ".txt");
When I run it with the 10 files selected I should be getting a text file that has the same name as the document processed, but instead all I get is an error log that reads Warning: no documents were processed
It doesn't give me any other reasons why I do not end up with an output file.
I ran pdfinfo on a file that generated the results and a file that did not, they look pretty much the same and neither is encrypted:

The only difference between them seems to be the field values.
