Need to know how many pages contain color
Is there any way of determining from the PDF file how many pages contain color and how many are just black and white?
I need to be able to charge users for use of the more expensive color laser printer, and tell the relative cost of printing in black only.
If there is not a simple way, eg something in each page header, then how many different things would I need to scan for within the PDF file?
Has anyone else had this problem, and does anyone have any utilty software to help do this?
Cheers, Derek
Since this is the PDFLanguage forum, I'll answer by explain a bit about PDF...
In PDF, there are 11 different ways to represent a color. For example, "Black" could be represented in Gray (1.0), RGB ([0 0 0]), CMYK([0 0 0 1]), etc. Which one(s) of those are "black and white", in your definition?
Therefore, the first thing you need to do is understand how color works in PDF. Second, you need to understand how those varying colorspaces translate to your printer.
THEN you can look around at software solutions that will help you solve your needs.

I received LR 5 for Christmas but have not downloaded it yet on my computer. I have had LR 3 for about 4 years. I am due to buy a new computer soon but need to know how many licenses/downloads I will get before downloading LR 5 on my current computer. I may also purchase a laptop in the next year so that would require 3 licenses altogether (current iMac, future iMac, future macbook).
You have one license.
You can download and install it on an infinite number of computers, as long as it is only installed on two of your computers at any one time, and in use on only one computer at any given time.
So in your case, current iMac, that's would mean its installed on one computer, no problem. Future iMac and future MacBook ... so if you uninstall from current iMac and install on Future iMac and future MacBook, it's now installed on two computers at a time, no problem, as long as you're not using Lightroom on both simultaneously. And if after that, you got two new computers and uninstalled Lightroom from the previous two, you're still good, it's only installed on two computers at any one time. -

I need to know how many downloads individual albums and songs had off of iTunes for a project, how do I find these numbers?
Ed...maybe a little less time gaming and a bit more time in English class? They got this thing called punctuation and sentences now. Last things first; there is no amount of money that can change your GPU so you can scratch that expense off the list. So you need a battery and a fan? Where do you live? USA? We can help you find a battery but where did you plan to have the new fan put in?

I need to know how many objects i got selected
Hi all,
I need to know how many objects i got selected for a particular issue and ussualy are too many to count one by one. I know that this information is provided in other software like Corel or Freehand, but I didn't find out how to get this info in Illustrator.
Any idea?
ThanksOpen the Document Info palette.
From its flyout menu, turn on Selection Only and Objects.
The palette will not remember those settings. You have to re-select them every time you relaunch Illustrator.
The Document Info palette is a half-baked hack, tagged-on to display a subset of the information in the normally-hidden programmer's window, instead of incorporating the data properly into the program's interface. So it's another completely unintuitive grab-bag of important information that everyone needs, but no one would expect to look for there.

I have a presentation to make to a customer and need to know how many educational apps are there for the iPad/iPod? More specifically special education apps.
ThanksKeep in mind as well that not all apps are "created equal". Some are really good, and others are not very good. You might also want to look at some education sites for recommendations. An example of a general iPads in education forum is
http://ipadeducators.ning.com/
but I imagine some exist for special education needs as well. Our healthcare organization is using some apps for working with autistic children and find them very helpful. -

I need to know how to remove the color background from an image PLEASE
Hello, I'm trying to remove an image within an image so that the image removed stands alone as its own file.
http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs47/f/2009/166/0/5/Straw_Hat__s_Flag_by_fenrir1992.jpg
^ So from that image, I'm trying to remove the black background so I only have the skull with hat image (and the bones behind it of course).
The reason for this is because I want to use it on a shirt, and that black background image does not match the shade of black on the shirt.
The file above is the image I wanted to use, with a size of 2874 x 2000. If anyone could show me how to do this I would greatly appreciate itJust use the MAGIC WAND TOOL, and select the black area(s). Hit the delete button... and you're done

im tlaking about the iphone 4s, im going to be really grateful for the help bye
Please clarify what you mean. Do you already have an iPhone? If so, and it came from the US and is (presumably) carrier locked, you're out of luck. NONE of the US carriers will unlock iPhones. There are no exceptions.
The unlocked iPhone 4S is not yet available in US Apple retail stores. All phones sold at retail in the US are currently carrier locked. -
I need to see how many times a report is executed in the system.
Hi,
I need to know how many times a report and background job is executed in the system.
How can I know that?
Thanks for the help!hi
For all reports and transactions execution info is stored in table MONI.
Read the System log using the Transaction SM21. may be you can find some info here.
U can use trx STAT, here the system stores the statistic only for a certain period (lst week, last month,...).
Also try stad transaction.
Reward points if helpful.
