     $resume = Input::file('resume');
        $extenstion = 'pdf';
        $datafiles = 'Resume_'.str_random(10).'.'.$extenstion;
          $resume ->move(public_path('datafiles/APPL'), $datafiles);

how i can mere above code in this for ex i want to convert a file into pdf and then assign a $datafile after that i want to move this file to this location datafiles/APPL or is there any way to assign $datafile directly to below code or eg 

  shell_exec('start /wait soffice --headless --convert-to pdf --outdir --savefile name as  $datafiles "./publicapp" "'.$resume.'"'); // is this possible or other correct way

  shell_exec('start /wait soffice --headless --convert-to pdf --outdir "./publicapp" "'.$resume.'"');
