Dear Sir,

Recently I just discovered your software img2pdf, I think it's very useful ,anf thank you for your hard work. However I've encountered a difficulty when try to convert a director of jpg files. The command line as below:

D:\Program\Office\PDF Tools>"D:\Program\Office\PDF Tools\img2pdf\build\lib\img2pdf.py" "D:\Program\Office\PDF Tools\file" -o out.pdf
usage: img2pdf.py [-h] [-v] [-V] [-o out] [-C colorspace] [-D]
[--without-pdfrw] [--first-frame-only] [-S LxL] [-s LxL]
[-b L[:L]] [-f FIT] [-a] [--title title] [--author author]
[--creator creator] [--producer producer]
[--creationdate creationdate] [--moddate moddate]
[--subject subject] [--keywords kw [kw ...]]
[--viewer-panes PANES] [--viewer-initial-page NUM]
[--viewer-magnification MAG] [--viewer-page-layout LAYOUT]
[--viewer-fit-window] [--viewer-center-window]
[--viewer-fullscreen]
[infile [infile ...]]
img2pdf.py: error: argument infile: "D:\Program\Office\PDF Tools\file" permission denied

I'm using Windows 10, 32 bit with Python 3.6. Hope you can help me on this issue. Thanks in advanced.

Regards,
Leslie Hui

Is D:\Program\Office\PDF Tools\file the path to the image that you want to convert?

By Leslie on 2017-06-28T16:37:24.053Z

Correct. I wish to convert all .jpg files inside the folder.

This is not how img2pdf works. You cannot give it the path to a folder but you have to give it the list of images that you want to convert into a pdf. That's what it means when it says in the error output above: [infile [infile ...]]. This is short for a list of input files. This is also what it says in the --help text.

Ok. I understood. Thanks for your help.
