PTQ offers a lot of DOS-parameters.

Open the command window and change to the PTQ directory:

Type:
cd\program files\modartt\pianoteq 7 (or whereever you installed PTQ)

Now start the conversion via command:

For example type:
"Pianoteq 7" --preset "HB Steinway D Pop" --midi C:\MyMidiFiles --wav C:\MyMidiFiles

This converts all midifiles in C:\MyMidiFiles to WAV-format in the given directory with the Steinway Pop preset.
To convert the files to mp3, just change "--wav" to "--mp3".

There are even parameters for bitrate, normalization, dithering etc.

To see a full list of parameters type:
"Pianoteq 7" --help

Tip: If you do this often, write the commands into a batchfile. Like "MIDtoMP3.bat"
