Batch process pdfs to do a Flesch-Kincaid readability test

Question

I have about 1800 PDF files that I have to extract Flesch-Kincaid grade level scores from. Does anyone have any ideas as to how I should best approach this? I need a score per PDF.

Answer 1

If flesh.exe takes a filename and outputs the results to stdout then this should run it on every PDF file.

@echo off
for %%a in (*.pdf) do (
flesh.exe "%%a"  >> file.log
)
