determine the number of pages of a pdf prior to any operation on it

Any of you know how to determine the number of pages in the pdf file (selected with the Open for example)?

Somehow, I can't understand how to do that any way short of actually opening/pixelation all pages without prior knowledge of the actual number.

I would like to use this information to determine the number of items to a contact-sheet-like procedure beforehand.

MultiPageImporter2.0.jsx, which is an Indesign Script by Scott Zanelli, obviously the fact, but so far I have failed to properly use its functions.

Anyway, have a good weekend

OK, now it works...

Install x script changing the CSx version

Then run this script by changing the location of pdf and the version of CS... (NB: does not work with CS2.) CS, CS3, and CS4 should be ok)

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

var pdffile = file ("~/Desktop/56 pages.pdf") .fsName;

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

var file = new File ("/ Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS3/Presets/Scripts/macexec.app/contents/macexec");

var pdfcnt = File ("~/pdfcnt");

If (pdfcnt. Exists) pdfcnt.remove ();

{if (file. Exists)}

leader. Open ("e");

leader. Encoding = "BINARY";

leader. Write ("/ usr/bin/LDM - name kMDItemNumberOfPages");

leader. Write ("\""+pdffile+"\"|/usr/bin/grep o [0-9]------+ $ > pdfcnt \n");

The following line closes all Windows Terminal.

file.writeln ("/ usr/bin/osascript - e ' tell \"Terminal\ request "to quit" ");

leader. Close();

}

leader. Execute();

var test = false;

{while (test)}

if test (pdfcnt.exist) = true;

$.sleep (50);

}

for (var t = 0; t)<>

If (pdfcnt. Length > 0) break;

$.sleep (50);

}

pdfcnt. Open ("r");

var number = parseInt (pdfcnt.readln ());

pdfcnt. Close();

Alert ("number of pages in" pdffile + "=" + count);

    In another discussion I showed a JavaScript that you can use to write the number of pages to the console in a batch sequence. You would do exactly the same thing in Action, so the action would consist of a simple JavaScript (more tools > run JavaScript) which includes the code.

  • Where can I see the number of pages in a document I created

    Hello

    I don't know why I can't find the answer to this question via google or the Help menu, but it's here:

    In word, you can see the number of pages (and the page you) in the menu bar below for example... page 5 of 50 (15,000 words). This is not in the printed document - it's like the management role. Is there an equivalent of this information in the Pages?

    Hi Chameleon.

    On the left of the menu bar is a button in the view. Choose the number of words to show.

    This will appear at the bottom of the Pages window:

    Choose a view:

    See "number of Pages" Page, it seems that you need to put this information in a header or a footer (Insert menu).

    Kind regards

  • retrieve the number of page reference all children tab

    I want to search tab within a tab, which gives this condition

    1. There is a parent and an uncertain number of child tab tab

    2. each page of the parent tab was certainly a child tab

    3. each page of the parent tab has other types of controls

    My goal is to collect the number of page all children tab

    It seems from the class name property, type reference do not match

    I am also attaching the vi

    Thank you

    His salvation,

    It seems from the class name property, type reference do not match

    Yes.

    With "CtlsOnPage" property that you get "imprecise" reference that all possible types of controls are referenced here. After filtering the references you need (you need to correctly!) you should use "ToMoreSpecificReference" and convert the reference to a type of tab reference!

  • Determine the number of channels selected for traditional DAQ

    The blocks 'DAQmx task' and "Traditional DAQ Channel" look pretty similar (see attachments). The DAQmx block ist an individual selection of channels and I am able to determine the number of selected channels.

    Now I am trying to determine the number of selected channels to a traditional DAQ, but the property DAQmx block does not work here. I already tried the trad to some form of blocks. Range of data acquisition, but failed.

    Any idea?

    In traditional DAQ, there are several ways of specifying the list of channels. Assuming that your picture shows how you use your channel list is just a string of delimited by commas. Wire a constant to a string array node worksheet and specify "comma" as the separator and the number of columns must tell you the number of channels.

    I need to download a driver but need to know if I have Windows XP, XP 64. I run Internet 7 SP3 if that makes a difference. Properties-General-he reads the slot system Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Version 2002 Service Pack 3.

    How to determine whether a computer is running a 32-bit version or the 64 bit version of the Windows operating system. http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/827218

    Windows XP if you have Windows XP, there are two ways to determine if you are running 32-bit or a 64-bit version. If one does not work, try the other.

    1. Click Startand then click run.
    2. Type sysdm.cpl, and then click OK.
    3. Click the general tab. The operating system is displayed as follows:
      • For a 64-bit version operating system: Windows XP Professional x 64 edition Version < year=""> appears under System.
      • For a 32-bit version operating system: Windows XP Professional Version appears under System.

      Note is a placeholder for a year.

    1. Click Startand then click run.
    2. Type winmsd.exe, and then click OK.
    3. When System summary is selected in the navigation pane, search for processor under item in the details pane. Note the value.
      • If the value that corresponds to processor starts with x 86, the computer is running a 32-bit version of Windows.
      • If the value that corresponds to processor starts with ia64 or AMD64, the computer is running a 64-bit version of Windows.

    If you cannot determine the number of bits of the operating system with these methods, go to the "Next steps" section (of the KB article)
