Convert DOCX files to PDF using LibreOffice.
PATH can be a DOCX file or a directory containing DOCX files.

Options:
  -o DIR    Output directory (default: same as input)
  -m NAME   Merge all PDFs into one file (default: merged.pdf)
  -p        Print the merged PDF (requires -m)
  -r        Search directories recursively for DOCX files
  -h        Show this help

Examples:
  $(basename "$0") file.docx
  $(basename "$0") -o out file1.docx file2.docx
  $(basename "$0") /path/to/docs/
  $(basename "$0") -m merged.pdf /path/to/docs/
  $(basename "$0") -m combined.pdf -p /path/to/docs/
  $(basename "$0") -r -o out /path/to/docs/
