If all documents are in the same folder (e.g. /Users/name/Documents/docs_cwk ), you can use this in Terminal (change name by you user name):
$ cd /Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS $ ./soffice --headless --convert-to pdf --outdir /Users/name/Documents/docs_cwk /Users/name/Document/docs_cwk/*.cwk
(here, the option --outdir /Users/name/Documents/docs_cwk give the destination folder for the .pdf created. The last argument of the command give the file(s) to converting.)
If you prefer by AppleScript :
do shell script "cd /Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS; ./soffice --headless --convert-to pdf --outdir /Users/name/Documents/docs_cwk /Users/name/Document/docs_cwk/*.cwk"
This create .pdf files. Hope this will create PDF/A file as needed.

I just made a check: I still own 4361 Applework files.
I use two methods for converting them (if I find the time):
1. Files of which I still would like to access their content will be converted to Pages, which opens Applework files directly.
2. I still run 10.6.8 on a Mac Mini, and therefore Appleworks 6. Files which are kept only for memory will be printed to PDF, also by means of a script
If you have no access to AppleWorks, there's also the possibility to convert to Pages and then print to PDF. No big scripting effort.

Thanks False hope. I know the syntax able to save as PDF (no need for the Print dialog) but Pages doesn't save as PDF/A which is required to fit the user's needs.
The files aren't in a single folder. They are stored in a hierarchy based upon year + month -day. Of course, I may build a script treating the subfolder recursively - at this time it treats the files recursively.
PDF/A isn't the default format used by LibreOffice
If I understand well the different answers, there is no other way than cliclick to trigger the important checkbox so I will continue to use it.
