I am using PHP 5 with Apache in my Windows Vista PC. I have Imagemagick already installed and configured. I want to count the total number of pages in a pdf file using imagick.

I fount one solution here, but dont know how to open pdf file as text and count pages.

somebody give me a clear solution to count pages using imagemagick like

identify -format %n testfile.pdf

From googling, I found some workarounds or examples;

  1. imagick(identify -format %n testfile.pdf)
  2. identify -density 12 -format "%p" testfile.pdf
  3. identify -format %n testfile.pdf

I don't know how to make use of this stuff..


Solution

  • I solved it using;

    exec("identify -format %n $file")
