Parsing PDFs ... what are you parsing them for? Are you attempting to extract the text and pictures?

More information please.

First, I want to say thanks for the reply! I know the question is off topic, and one could make the case that I should start a new top-level node, but I thought you might have some advice off the top of your head. what are you parsing them for? I was trying to extract the text, and regenerate a new PDF with page numbers. It's been a while since I tried this, and I went with a different solution, but it's been bothering me ever since. PDF::Parse seems like it will get me the pages, but after that, I can't see how to get any data from them.	[reply]

No, unfortunately, I did not. I gave up and moved on.	[reply]
