Answer 1

There's another way - just to add it:

@echo off
for /r "c:\rootfolder\folder1" %%a in (*.tif) do "Tiff2Pdf.exe" -o "%%~dpna.pdf" "%%a"

I also changed the loop variable to a because i is close to l and I and 1 in many fonts.

Answer 2

FOR /F "delims=" %%i IN ('dir /b /s C:\RootFolder\Folder1\*.tif') DO "Tiff2Pdf.exe" -o "%%~dpi%%~ni.pdf" "%%i"

• Use dir /s /b to do a full recursive enumeration
• Use FOR /F "delims=" to parse the results and handle paths with spaces.
• Use the %%~dpi%% to get the directory of each file.
• Use %%~ni to get the file's name with out an extension.
