This question gets asked here every so often, did you search before posting? Take a look at Re: Extracting content text from PDFs and the documentation for CAM::PDF. Cheers Martin	[reply]

There are various tools out there that do things like this. One way is to convert the file to postscript, and then use ghostscript (short gs), the postscript swiss army chain saw. (Maybe it can even handle the PDF directly, I haven't tried that for quite some time).	[reply]

Yeah, the thing with PDF::API2 and CAM::PDF, is that I've found they may or may not work to do this on a certain architecture. PDF::Burst has the various methods to blow up a pdf doc into single pages. It uses PDF::API2, CAM::PDF, etc. So if one doesn't work, you use the other, same arguments, etc.	[reply]

I extracted all pages from pdf file using "PDF::Extract". If i open that extracted pdf it open correctly. But if i try to close it asked yes or no dialog box. Could you please explain how to rectify this problem. Code: use PDF::Extract; $pdf=new PDF::Extract( PDFDoc=>"C:\\sample.pdf"); $i=1; $i++ while ( $pdf->savePDFExtract( PDFPages=>$i ) ); Thanks, Prabudass	[reply]
