in reply to Re^3: System path
in thread System path

"files" is just the directory containing the .exe file. Just to give you an idea. The following works fine

sub convert{ system ("files/pdftotext.exe -nopgbrk - q example.pdf" ); }

It converts example.pdf in example.txt. Crazy enough I am loosing so much time for this stupid thing...
