I have a PDF which contains 42 pages, the data I want to search for is a serial number (For Eg. L08806668). Now I need to save this as PDF (last page range) & another string value “Declaration” which will give me the start page range.
My requirement is to save this as a new pdf file (L08806668.pdf) from the range with the ‘Declaration’ value to the serial number.
Can u help me find a solution?
What you can do is Get PDF Page count, store it in a variable.
Loop through all the pages from page 1 till lastPage.
Use Read PDF activity: In the Range Property give currentPage:
And then check with an if condition whether that keyword is found on currentpage: if it is found. Store it in a variable DeclarationFoundOnPage: and then Use Extract PDF Page Range with range as
DeclarationFoundOnPage.toString+“-”+lastPage.toString
Hope this Solution works for you.
Thanks
Happy Automation!
Hi Adithya,
Really appreciate your reply…
Your answer gave me an insight to a solution…
I think I’m going to take steps mentioned in below link to be precise.
Thank you,
Now that I have created the list of pdf files to be extracted using range value.
But now my challenge is to extract only certain pages from different files. Let me show u an example.
Data page No. | Reference page | File Path
5 3 File 1
7. 3. File 1
2. 4. File 3
From the above table, I need to combine all
Files (i.e. file 1, file 3) to a single pdf file, such that new file should contain pages : 5,3,7,2,4 from file 1 & 3.
Hope u understand my question.
