Need a plot routine that will take the 3rd page from every PDF file
I am not very good with programming so I am fishing on this one.
Anybody have a plot routine that will take the 3rd page from every
pdf file in a specified folder?
I wish to create some part catalogues without having to open
each file individually. I could publish a new catalogue once or twice a year.
Is it possible to create a plot that opens every file and prints page 3?

Do you have any sort of inkling about the type of programming language you'd like to use OR that this would require?Originally Posted by Robert.Hall

I have not idea what this would entail.
I have all of my pdf files created in a similar fashion.
Having the ability to pull page 3 from an entire directory of
files would allow me to quickly put together a catalogue of
all the parts I have designed.

I could get the same effect from pulling page 1 out of every sheetset I have created.
I do not think this option would be possible. I read somewhere that layouts may
only belong to one sheet set. Is that correct?

yes, unfortunately (unless this changed with 07, but, I haven't heard so) that layouts can only be linked to one sheet set)

OUTSOURCE!
Just send that one off to a printer. Let them have the headache.

If you want you can contact me directly. I can solve this one way or the other. I've done a lot of automation of PDF files.
