Hello again lennelei,
This works as expected, based on your last update (To resume: for any pdf, I need to keep at most the 100 first pages (if the pdf is 15 pages, I leave it untouched ; if it's 654 pages, I create a new pdf with the pages 1 to 100 included).).
It creates a new pdf (100 pages) if the pdf is (above 100 pages).
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use PDF::API2;
my $file='test.pdf';
my $newpdf = PDF::API2->new();
my $oldpdf = PDF::API2->open($file);
if ($oldpdf->pages() > 100) {
printf " (%d pages)\n", $oldpdf->pages();
for my $page_nb (1..100) {
$newpdf->importpage($oldpdf, $page_nb, $page_nb);
}
$newpdf->saveas("_".$file);
}
Hope this helps, BR.
