I am sorry I did not understand what you were asking fully until now.

I am only testing on two tsv files that get converted that get processed by the loop and the output is 2 text files.

I will try again tomorrow. I apologize I can only post samples input as the file is not fully usable. i work in heathcare and am somewhat limited. That being said I do not mean to frustrate or be difficult. My posts are not always as clear as they should be but I try to include important pieces. Thank you Smilie.

NAME
yodlpost - Yodl post-processor SYNOPSIS
yodlpost [options] index yodlout [out] DESCRIPTION
The Yodl post processor is used to solve references into the converted text, and to split (where appropriate) the converted Yodl text in parts. Some conversions do not require post-processing, such as LaTeX, but most do. Therefore, in most cases a Yodl conversion consists of two phases: o First, yodl(1) is called, producing a raw output file and an associated index file; o Then, yodlpost(1) is called, converting these two files into a final document. Normally, yodl2...(1) scripts are used to perform complete Yodl conversions. OPTIONS
-x ext: extension of the out-s if different from out's extension itself. If omitted, and out has no extension, ypp (Yodl Post Processor) is used. SEE ALSO
yodlstriproff(1), yodl(1), yodlbuiltins(7), yodlconverters(1), yodlletter(7), yodlmacros(7), yodlmanpage(7), yodlverbinsert(1). BUGS
