Batch converting folders of JPGs to one PDF per folder?

[Fry2018]

Is there a good, preferably free, Windows program that will batch convert folders of images to separate .PDF files, please?

I have some magazine scans in .jpg format, each issue is in a separate folder, like this:

\Your Spectrum 01\
\Your Spectrum 02\
\Your Spectrum 03\
\Your Spectrum 04\

and I want to be able to convert each folder into it's own .PDF file, so I end up with Your Spectrum 01.pdf, Your Spectrum 02.pdf, Your Spectrum 03.pdf, Your Spectrum 04.pdf, etc.

Thanks for any answers.

You can write a python script to batch the task, using import python lib pdf.
open a jpg file in a given folder, save as pdf in another folder, then one-by-one in batch.

My programming/scripting days (such as they were) is long behind me now, sadly.

The main reason I want to do this is so that I can use a PDF reader to read these files, and when I close the PDF reader then the PDF reader remembers where I was up to when I reopen the PDF file, but if there is a graphics viewer that allows bookmarks, then I could use that to read the .jpg files (and bookmark where I am up to in a given folder of .jpg files) then I probably wouldn't go to the trouble of converting the .jpg files to a PDF file).

The graphics viewer I use is Irfanview, which is excellent but sadly lacks a bookmark feature, so are there any suitable graphics viewers that allow you to bookmark where you are in any folders?
