Re^2: I have a problem in finding corrupted PDF files

Thanks for your Reply. But still i'm getting the following errors.

1) Bad object reference in the line'. ("$path/$aa"). 2)If the pdf file is corrupted one, it shows the error "Can't read cross-reference section, according to trailer" and terminate the program.

I want to get a corrupted pdf file list.

If the pdf file is corrupted one, it shows the error "Can't read cross-reference section, according to trailer" and terminate the program. This is exactly one of the cases I had in mind when I said "`PDF->new()` does die in some cases". As this is a simple, straightforward `die` message in PDF/Parse.pm (line 82), `sub ReadCrossReference_pass1 { ... $_=PDF::Core::PDFGetline ($fd,\$offset); die "Can't read cross-reference section, according to trailer\n" if +! /xref\r?\n?/ ; ... }` [download] I'm pretty sure (actually, I've tried it) that it will be caught, if you wrap the call in an `eval` block with curly braces, as shown in my previous reply. That's exactly what that eval BLOCK form (Perl's exception handling mechanism) is for. If you still can't keep the script running in that case, please post the exact code you're using.
