thanks in advance.

Well, unless you have a file called ./.md in the current folder, that won't work. Did you mean .\*.md without the quotes? There's some info about using shell globbing right there in the readme: https://github.com/simonhaenisch/md-to-pdf#usage.

Note: there's no internal processing of paths with wildcards/glob patterns... you have to get the shell to expand it into multiple paths, and md-to-pdf will pick up each input argument as one file path to process.

hello,
thank you so much for your reply ,

it's okay, I can generate my pdf.
