You can use the Publisher for Raster user interface to create an .XML configuration file that contains specific file generation parameters for multiple source image files and then run that .XML configuration file when you batch process via the Command Prompt with --config=.

Saving project file parameters with a source image file

If you want to save your current session and create a workspace showing all the information about how your GeoPDF files were created, you can use the Publisher for Raster user interface to save those source image file settings with the .XML file generation parameters. The .XML project file can also be used with a batch process using the command prompt.
