Extract pdfs using bookmark names

Is there a way to extract a multi-page PDF file into individual PDF files and use the bookmark names as the file names?
Currently the only way i see it is by page number. Then you have to go and rename all your new files.

Thank you for the reply. I MAY have to go that route if there is not a free way of doing it. I am doing this investigation for my boss and of course they want a free way out to save some $. We are already going to have to purchase another program to do another conversion after this initial PDF extraction.

  • Link of PDF using bookmark, page

    Hi all,
    I would like to create links of PDF using bookmark, page, as below.
    http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/acrobat/PDFOpenParameters.pdf#page=3
    I created the link (HTMLResources/doc.pdf#page=3), but it opens 1st page of PDF.
    Is it possible for using something like #page=3 or #nameddest=Chapter6?

    Hi Recardo,
    Thanks for response.
    Earlier we faced issue of 'NPE', while adding markups and it was show stopper for that we had to give this fix and now few markups are missing.
    With the reference to the SR, SR 3-10406750311 : During creating Annotation dimensions getting Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullP we were asked to implement Listeners.
    Please let us know if we can have any further fix to our current code.

  • Using Bookmark Names to create Custom Stamps

    Hi all,
      I am a VB programmer that is struggling with a task in JS.  I am trying to do 1 of 2 things:  I would prefer #2.
    1.Create a custom stamp using the filename.
    or
    2.Create a custom stamp using the bookmark name (which in turn will be the filename)
    I have been foooling around for a number of hours trying to get this to work out, here's what I have done so far:
    I have created a stamp, the stamp has two text boxes that I need to fill from one string. The string is in the format of
    "08363-G-5109-DWG-R-00001_A.pdf" with a varying number of characters before the underscore, but always the same after the underscore. In the first text box I need
    08363-G-5109-DWG-R-00001 which I get with
    Code:
    event.value = event.source.source.documentFileName.slice(0,-6); this work great. The second box needs to contain the letter(s) that are between the "_" and the ".pdf" and everything I have tried doesn't produce a result.
    I focused most of my time trying to split the filename up, figuring the same logic would be applied to the bookmarks.
    The things I have tried:
    [CODE]
    var str = event.source.source.documentfilename;
    var strt = str.lastindexof("_");
    var end = str.lastindexof(".");
    event.value = str.substring(strt,end);
    and
    var arrStr = event.source.source.documentfilename.split("_");  ' **Harcoding = "08363-G-5109-DWG-R-00001_A.pdf" works**
    var arrstr2 = arrStr[1].split(".");                                             'But isn't very dynamic
    event.value = arrstr2[0];
    and
    var str = event.source.source.documentfilename;
    var arrStr = str.split("_");
    var arrstr2 = arrStr[1].split(".");
    event.value = arrstr2[0];
    [/CODE]
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

    GJ - The bookmark would be selected manually and the stamp would reflect the change.  The sole purpose of this is to combine and stamp hundreds of documents in the most efficient manner.
    So for example:
    I combine 3 docs by selecting them in Windows and right clicking and selecting combine:
    08363-G-5109-DWG-R-00002_A.pdf
    08363-G-5109-DWG-R-00002_B.pdf
    08363-G-5109-DWG-R-00002_C.pdf
    I would have 3 bookmarks automatically when the combination occurs:
    08363-G-5109-DWG-R-00002_A
    08363-G-5109-DWG-R-00002_B
    08363-G-5109-DWG-R-00002_C
    So when I select the bookmark 08363-G-5109-DWG-R-00001_A then click stamps - dynamic stamps , my two text boxes have used this bookmark to get                 Text 1                          Text 2
                                                                           08363-G-5109-DWG-R-00001     A
    Then I manually select the next bookmark and select stamp and it has used the next bookmark name to create a stamp  with two text boxes now              08363-G-5109-DWG-R-00002      B
    If I had to stamp them first them combine, I would have to open one, stamp, save close rinse and repeat 100 times then combine.
    GK - I did have a poke around with bookmarkRoot.children, but the only result I ended up with was the word "Root" in the second box.  I couldn't seem to determine if JS automatically builds the children collection based on the number of bookmarks off the root, or if I had to programmatically build it with an array.

  • How do I get Mozilla to use the page name for the actual bookmark name instead of the URL when I bookmark a page

    I just noticed this (in comparison to Internet Explorer): In IE, when you favorite a webpage, it uses the actual name of the webpage (for example, for this page, it would be "Ask a Question Firefox Help" as the bookmark name), but in Mozilla it uses the URL address as the bookmark name. I was wondering if it was at all possible to change my Mozilla settings in order to make it use the webpage name as the bookmark name instead of the URL address? I hope everyone understands what I'm getting at? If anyone can help me, I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

    Does this happen with each bookmark?

  • Extract Text from pdf using C#

    Hi,
    We are Solution developer using Acrobat,as we have reuirement of extracting text from pdf using C# we have downloaded adobe sdk and installed. We have found only four exmaples in C# and those are used only for viewing pdf in windows application. Can you please guide us how to extract text from pdf using SDK in C#.
    Thanks you for your help.
    Regards
    kiranmai

    Okay so I went ahead and actually added the text extraction functionality to my own C# application, since this was a requested feature by the client anyhow, which originally we were told to bypass if it wasn't "cut and dry", but it wasn't bad so I went ahead and gave the client the text extraction that they wanted. Decided I'd post the source code here for you. This returns the text from the entire document as a string.
           private static string GetText(AcroPDDoc pdDoc)
                AcroPDPage page;
                int pages = pdDoc.GetNumPages();
                string pageText = "";
                for (int i = 0; i < pages; i++)
                    page = (AcroPDPage)pdDoc.AcquirePage(i);
                    object jso, jsNumWords, jsWord;
                    List<string> words = new List<string>();
                    try
                        jso = pdDoc.GetJSObject();
                        if (jso != null)
                            object[] args = new object[] { i };
                            jsNumWords = jso.GetType().InvokeMember("getPageNumWords", BindingFlags.InvokeMethod, null, jso, args, null);
                            int numWords = Int32.Parse(jsNumWords.ToString());
                            for (int j = 0; j <= numWords; j++)
                                object[] argsj = new object[] { i, j, false };
                                jsWord = jso.GetType().InvokeMember("getPageNthWord", BindingFlags.InvokeMethod, null, jso, argsj, null);
                                words.Add((string)jsWord);
                        foreach (string word in words)
                            pageText += word;
                    catch
                return pageText;

  • Extract Pantone color from the PDF using c#.

    hi i have an requirement to extact pantone color from PDF. So i had decided will  go for acrobat.dll or illustrator library to get pantone and other color from the PDF.Can you please help me out how to proceed and get pantone color from PDF using c#.thanku in advance

    If the PDF has Pantone colors in it, you can use output preview to see it. If you want a Pantone equivalent of a CMYK value you can do this:
    In Illustrator, make a cmyk swatch of the desired color, open the Color Guide panel (Window > Color Guide), then press the Swatch Library button in the panel's lower left corner and choose color books> Pantone+solid coated. Clicking the first color in the Color Harmony section (the Base Color) at the top of the panel will add the closest PMS Spot Color equivalent to your Swatches panel.
    There is often no exact 4/C match for a spot color, but this method will get you in the ballpark.

  • How to extract word coordinates from PDF using vc++6.0

    In sdk,i just know how to get coordinate from pdf using javascript,and it will be completed use vb.but i dont know how to get the coordinate througt vc++6.0.anyone can help me?
    thank you advance!

    PDEWordFinder is the usual method for getting words and co-ordinates.
    PDFEdit is not usually used, it is not suitable for getting text.
    It is very hard work to make the two worlds work together (e.g. to

  • Export single-page pdfs with page name

    I've been looking for a script that:
    - exports every page of an indesign file to a seperate single-page pdf (or other filetypes)
    - names the pdf with the name of a page -> this is the hard part to find
    The reason i could use it: i have a 200+ page file with productspecs. I would like to export every page with the correct productname. (extracting pdfs in acrobat is not a problem, but then i have to manually rename every file)
    I'm not sure how to name the pages, as it's not a function in indesign. Ideal would be to be able to "tell" indesign: this textframe = the pagename, so it wouldn't be necessary to label the page seperately.
    I'm not a scripter. I searched the forum and found some info on this already, but not a working script including automatic pagenaming.
    I did found an old post where someone points to such a script, but i can't find it:
    http://www.techplex.net/postsm40018_possible-to-name-pages.html#post40018
    Did anyone ever made/found/used such a script?
    (btw, a similar script for illustrator artboards would be very useful too!)
    Any help appreciated!

    scott zanelli made one years ago. does a fantastic job.

  • InDesign Export to PDF and PDF Destinations/Bookmarks

    Hello all,
    I am new to this forum and am not sure where the most appropriate location for this question is. But, here goes:
    We are adding Bookmarks to an InDesign Doc then exporting it to a PDF. In the Acrobat Reader and the IE Acrobat reader the bookmarks work just fine. Here his where the problem is. I have to link to the PDF's bookmarks from a web page. I have come to find out that I can't link directly to a bookmark but I have to link to a "Destination."
    The PDF Exporter or InDesign adds a Destination name that is not the same as the bookmark name. It includes the indd file name and the part of the sentience that the book mark is next to.
    I have used Adobe Acrobat Professional to create a custom Destination that is one word without spaces. I am able to link to that destination but I can't link to any of the destinations that either InDesign or the PDF exporter created.
    Does anyone know how to force the Destinations names to be set to the name of the bookmark that is being mapped to it? Or, how to link to a bookmark name rather then a Destination.
    I have also did some searching for some VB to Acrobat scripting and found that I can't edit Destination names.
    This is for an on going project that is sure to have a lot of updates. We do not want to have to goto Acrobat and fix the Destinations by hand for every update. Plus, we don't want to link to the page number because we are never sure when pages will change and again do not want to always fix the PDF or HTML index page every time.
    Thank you for your time,

    Michael, I've got one solution that meets my needs but maybe only part of your needs:
    Buy AutoBookmark from Evermap:  http://www.evermap.com/autobookmark.asp#Creating%20Destinations%20From%20Bookmarks
    It's a plugin to Adobe Acrobat (not Reader), but it works only in MS Windows, not Mac.
    After you've installed that plugin, Acrobat's Plug Ins menu has a Destinations menu item with some choices you're going to use.
    Open with Acrobat, the PDF file that has the destination names that have that bothersome <filename>.indd prefix.  Use the Plug Ins > Destinations menu's item to export the destinations as a plain text file.
    Edit the resulting plain text file with any plain text editor.  Globally search and replace the filename prefix with nothing.  Save and close that file.
    Back in the Acrobat window of your PDF file, use the Destinations menu's choice to delete all destinations.
    Now use the Destinations menu to import the destinations file you just edited.
    Voila.
    BUT the part of your problem that this won't solve, is the presence of a portion of the sentence in the destination.  That's not a problem for me, because I'm creating all my destinations as parts of the sentence.

    Hello,
    I am not sure if this will help. However, I can export data from a portfolio to excel by doing the following:
    I extract all the pages from the portfolio into single PDFs
    I open the first PDF
    Click on Tools
    Under Forms, I select More From Options
    I select Merge Data Files into Spreadsheet
    The pop-up box allows you to add all of the additional files that you made from the portfolio
    Click on them then click Export
    It will ask for a file name and place to save it.
