Extract PDF pages with it's actual page numbers...

Hi scripting gurus,
We have more than 40 of PDF documents each document contain multiple pages. Using Acrobat Professional 7.0 and 8.0 with MAC platform. We have the script to extract the pages and to suffix running numbers with the document name, please find the script below. For example CH01.pdf document total number of pages is 10, but the actual page number starts with 11. So We have to extract each pages as individual documents and the page number will followed by document name with "_" separation, (Eg: CH01_11.pdf). I have tried so many ways to include the page numbers with the document name but i can't.
/*Split pdf pages with pNum suffixed*/
var rename = /.*\/|\.pdf$/ig;
var startName = this.path.replace(rename,"");
for (var i = 1, j = 0; j < numPages; i += 1, j += 1) {
extractPages ({
nStart : j,
nEnd : j == numPages - 1 ? j : j + 0,
cPath : "/Macintosh HD/Users/Beaconpmg/Desktop/ExtractFolder/"+startName+"_"+i+".pdf"
So please can anyone look into this and help for me.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Thiyagu

First of all, replace numPages with this.numPages
Also, this doesn't make any sense:
nEnd : i == numPages - 1
I have tried what you have said above, but it is not working. Its showing the same error (missing ; before statement)in 4th line of the script.
Please find the complete code below;
// see if we need to define a global offset first file
if(global.fPageOffset == undefined) {
var global.fPageOffset = 10; // start at 10
/*Split pdf pages with pNum suffixed*/
var rename = /.*\/|\.pdf$/ig;
var startName = this.path.replace(rename,"");
for (var i = 0; i < this.numPages; i++) { this.extractPages ({ nStart : i, nEnd : i == this.numPages - 1 , cPath : "/Macintosh HD/Users/Beaconpmg/Desktop/ExtractFolder/" + startName + "_" + (i + global.PageOffset) + ".pdf" }); }
// add finished file's number of pages to global page offest
global.fPageOffest += this.numPages;

How can I extract certain pages from my document and save as another file?

How can I extract certain pages from my document and save as another file?

You would need Adobe Acrobat to do that, not Adobe Reader.

Cannot attach a pdf after extracting a page in Acrobat X Pro

I have a user that wants to extract one page from a multi page pdf and then e-mail it. He performs these steps - >
Tools - Extract - Share - The file is not showing up in the Select Any Type of File box and the Attach to Email bubble is filled in.
He aslo has Adobe Reader XI installed and is using Windows XP.
Any ideas?

Hopefully Adobe Reader is not being used to attempt this as it cannot do it.
Now if Acrobat XI Pro is used the "click" path is Tools | Pages | Extract which will present the "Extract Pages" dialog.
Note that there is no "share" associated with this.
The "Extract Pages" dialog affords the user the ability to select the "from" and "to" pages, the ability to tick "Delete Pages After Extracting" and the ability to tick "Extract Pages As Separate Files".
A similar dialog / end-user choices for Acrobat X Pro, the flavors of Acrobat 9 Pro and 8 Pro.
It appears that some other process is in play. Could you identify it please.
Be well...

How to extract specific pages from a PDF

Hello. I'm using Windows XP Pro on a custom PC with Adobe Acrobat 8.0. I work for a small magazine (abqarts.com) that publishes its online version in PDF format which is created by our production dept. I need to extract specific pages from the magazien as PDFs to send to a client. Tried to look up how in the Help file but I think the termonology is defeating me.
I can load the magazine's PDF into Acrobat, but can't manage to save, print or export two pages and the cover as individual PDF files. I'd sure appreciate some help.
Thanks,
Peggy

Graffiti, thanks for your quick response! When you say "open the pages view" that's the drop-down View menu, right? Then I select Page Display but don't know which one to chose after that. Single, two-up etc.
And Control>click on a page selects an image on that page--not the entire page, which is what I want.
That said, I'm way happy you pointed out Document>Extract Pages. That works great for me, one page at a time. Maybe I don't need the other things clarified because I can use this one, but I'd like to get working all the tips you provided.
Gratefully,
Peggy

I have two pdf docs that I used Acrobat to convert to word docs. How do I extract one page from one doc to insert into the other doc?

I have two pdf docs that I converted to Word Docs using Acrobat Pro. How do I extract one page from the first doc and insert it into the second doc? When I "select all" it grabs the entire document. I need to take pages out, put other pages in, and edit some of the text.

HI djlarp,
Try triple-clicking in the text that you want to select--it can sometimes be tricky to select text in a converted document. If that doesn't work, it could be that the PDF document was created from a scanned document, and OCR wasn't enabled when you converted the document. (However, OCR is enabled by default when you convert via the ExportPDF website.)
If you're unable to select text by triple-clicking, let us know. I would be happy to take a closer look at your files.
Best,
Sara

Which Version of Adobe do I need to be able to "extract" a page from a existing file and save/download to another file?

Which Version of Adobe do I need to be able to "extract" a page from a existing file and save/download to another file?

Acrobat Pro or Standard.

When extracting a page from a PDF, I lost nearly 1KB of data. What exactly is changing here?

I have a project in which I compile content from scanned documents. Usually I send the scans in packets of 15-50 pages at a time, and extract the pages (using Document > Extract Pages...) into a separate folder for compiling and tagging.
Sometimes, usually when starting a new document folder, I send only the title page. Usually I would simply move this single-page document into the appropriate folder, since extracting would do nothing but copy the entire file anyways.
However, one time out of habit, I extracted 'page 1 of 1' into the folder and found that one of the pages is 5.798MB while the extracted file is 5.797MB. Looking closely at the document there are light visual changes but otherwise nothing that would make me think the resolution or information has been reduced or damaged. Namely:
The original scan has a white border around it while the extracted scan does not. This border is not a pixel border or otherwise a part of the scan; zooming in or out, this border will always exist at 1px thickness.
Pixels in the original scan appear solidly square while it seems the borders are lightly blurred in the extracted. The color and size of the pixels has not changed, the literal boundary between two separate pixels is itself blurred (looking at the document at %3200 zoom).
What is this KB of data that suddenly disappears? And does this have some effect on the quality and content of the document, or is this some sort of visual issue otherwise unrelated to the extracting?
The project I have is archival in nature; while 1KB in a 5.8MB document is negligible, I would like to know where this information is disappearing to, and more importantly, whether this information loss could accumulate as documents are passed around over time.

Looking at the content box now, it just shows
[filename].pdf
     Page 1
          Annotations
          XObject: Image w:[width] h:[height]
all of which seems to contain no properties or additional data. I might be missing something here that would tell me more about the information and content of the file but right now I don't see it.
EDIT: I should also note that the width and height does not change between images despite, say, the additional white border.

Extract a page from a PDF document

Can I extract a page from a PDF using Preview? Under Windows using Adobe Acrobat Pro you can extract a page from a PDF, so I was wondering.

Under Windows using Adobe Acrobat Pro you can extract a page from a PDF
Under Mac OS X, using Adobe Acrobat Pro, you can do the same thing.
But there are a few free utilities to do the same thing, as mentioned.
For the Print option mentioned, you can also use the Quartz filters to compress the "printed" PDF.

iPhoto on the iPad can be used to make photo books, but not calendars. It is a very different program from the Mac version of iPhoto. I hope you have access to a mac to create your christmas calendar.
http://help.apple.com/iphoto/ipad/2.0/?handbuch#blnkbc26e276
Search the AppStore for "Foto Calendar". I have not tried any of these apps, but there are quite a few, that claim to be able to create an "Awesome foto calendar"

Script for extracting multiple pages

Hi,
I'm working with the default "extract pages" script: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_A croJS.88.465.html
I want to modify it to extract 2 pages at a time. For example, say I start with a 6-page document. I would like the script to extract pages 1,2 as one document, then pages 3,4 and 5,6.
How would I modify the script to do this?
Thanks!

You could use a loop, but you don't need to for what you want. Do something like:
// Extract first two pages to a new file
extractPages({nStart: 0, nEnd: 1, cPath: "/F/temp/file1.pdf"});
// Extract 3rd and 4th pages
extractPages({nStart: 2, nEnd: 3, cPath: "/F/temp/file2.pdf"});
// Extract fifth and sixth pages
extractPages({nStart: 4, nEnd: 5, cPath: "/F/temp/file3.pdf"});
Obviously, you need to change the file paths.

Can I extract the page number of the selection item

Hi,
I want to extract the page number of the selected item in my document
Is it possible?
my script will be executed out from InDesign by another application

Yes, that's right! I read it so wrong!
In CS5 there is new property:
var mySel = app.selection[0];
var mySelPage = mySel.parentPage;

Hope that helps.

Extract the Page Size from the Document Properties

I have multiple drawings of various sizes and need to extract the page size from the document properties of each drawing.
this.info object can be used to extract the title, author, subject etc of a document but there is no property shown for extracting the page size.
Can any one please advise a way of extracting the page size from the document properties of a file?
Any assistance will be most appreciated.
Once the page size can be extracted I will be using a script to place a stamp with onto the drawing depending on the page size.
Thank you.

Thank you for your help George.
I have used the getPageBox script as follows:
var aRect = this.getPageBox("Crop");
var width = aRect[2] - aRect[0];
var height = aRect[1] - aRect[3];
console.println("Page 1 has a width of " + width + " and a height of " + height);
The console reports back - Page 1 has a width of 1162 and a height of 814.
The actual drawing shows in the document properties page size as 40.988 x 28.713 cm.
Can you please advise why the getPageBox measurement is not reporting correctly?

This is not really a Numbers question. I will provide an answer but suggest you make the question relavent for the forum where you post.
1) Open the PDF in Preview
2) select the menu item "View > Thumbnails"
3) select the page you wnt to share
4) copy (by using the key combination <command> + c OR select the menu item "Edit > Copy"
5) select the menu item "File > New From Clipboard"
6) save as a new name
7) share the new file
