Batch file conversion from .pages to .pdf

Hello,

I have tried to follow the instructions given in this thread : AppleScript to convert .pages to .pdf - Apple Community

When I drag and drop a .pages file on the application on my desktop, the script seems to run but I get the message:

"Export completed without any files processed.

Only Pages (.pages) documents are exported to PDF."

I have checked that the .pages document opens properly in Pages.app.

System version : Sonoma 14.5

Any hint ?

iMac 24″, macOS 14.5

I just copied/pasted that AppleScript from your included link above into the Script Editor on macOS Sonoma 14.6.1. Followed my original instructions and when I dragged/dropped a folder containing four Pages documents, all were converted to PDF in that dropped folder. I clicked OK (not Cancel) on all of the security dialogs that initially appeared during the first run of this application.

When I open this folder and drag and drop a single four-page Pages document onto the application icon, it is also converted to PDF.

I would double-check my original instructions and redo your application.
