Automating document conversion can save significant time and reduce human error when managing large volumes of files.



One of the most effective tools for this task is the WPS Batch Processor, a built-in feature of WPS Office that allows users to convert multiple documents at once without opening each file individually.



From converting PPTs to JPGs, switching XLSX to PDF, or preparing TXT files for archival, this tool unifies diverse conversion needs into a single streamlined workflow.



To begin, open WPS Office on your computer and locate the Batch Processor tool.



It is typically located in the Tools dropdown, or you can quickly access it using the internal search function.



After launching, a clean, intuitive layout appears, walking you through file selection, format configuration, and destination setup.



Begin by importing the documents you need to process.



Press the "Add Files" option to open a file explorer and choose several files simultaneously.



You can hold down the Ctrl key to select non consecutive files or the Shift key to select a range.



Alternatively, you can drag and drop folders directly into the Batch Processor window to include all compatible files within them.



The tool supports a wide variety of input formats including DOC, DOCX, XLS, XLSX, PPT, PPTX, TXT, and more.



Once your files are loaded, select your target format using the format selector.



Common options include PDF, DOCX, XLSX, and image formats like JPG or PNG.



The output type you select directly governs the conversion logic applied to each document.



When converting a slide deck to JPG, each slide becomes its own image; switching a Word doc to PDF maintains exact formatting for broad compatibility.



Choose a target directory for saving your newly converted documents.



It is recommended to create a new folder specifically for the output to avoid overwriting original files or mixing them with unrelated documents.



You may enter the path directly or use the Browse button to locate your preferred folder.



The Batch Processor will automatically append a number or timestamp to filenames if duplicates are detected, helping to maintain organization.



Always verify your file list and output configurations prior to starting.



A preview panel shows each file alongside its assigned output type, letting you validate the setup.



When ready, press the Start button to initiate the conversion process.



Processing time varies based on file count and complexity — from seconds for small batches to minutes for large sets.



Watch the live progress bar and stop the process anytime with the Pause or Cancel controls.



After the conversion completes, the Batch Processor will notify you and open the destination folder automatically, giving you immediate access to the new files.



Check a sample of the converted files to validate layout, readability, and overall fidelity.



You can easily reprocess with new options or expand your batch by adding more documents.



You can convert diverse document types — Word, Excel, PowerPoint — all in a single batch.



For instance, you can convert a folder containing Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files all into PDF format simultaneously, saving you from running separate conversion tasks.



Perfect for business users dealing with reports, spreadsheets, slides, or contracts that demand consistent formatting.



Before initiating automation, sort your documents into well-named, purpose-specific folders.



This helps prevent confusion and ensures that you are converting the correct set of documents.



Additionally, keep your WPS Office software updated to benefit from performance improvements and compatibility enhancements.



Batch processing with WPS Office is not only time saving but also cost effective, especially compared to purchasing third-party conversion tools.



It integrates seamlessly with the rest of the WPS suite, so if you already use WPS for writing, spreadsheets, or presentations, you are already equipped with a powerful automation tool.



To sum up, this tool transforms document management by automating conversions, cutting downtime, and maintaining format integrity.



Mastering this tool empowers you to handle documents with unprecedented speed, precision, and ease, in any context.
