How open pdf in photoshop with option 2.

[Raziel]

Hi,
I use a jxs script than can import all pages from one pdf, into one photoshop document. But I can't find how to import all pictures without text (Work with option 2 if I do it manually). It's possible ? How ?

Thank for your help.

The ScriptingListener plug-in records basic info:

Code: Select all

var idopen = stringIDToTypeID( "open" );
    var desc227 = new ActionDescriptor();
    var idas = stringIDToTypeID( "as" );
        var desc228 = new ActionDescriptor();
        var idsuppressWarnings = stringIDToTypeID( "suppressWarnings" );
        desc228.putBoolean( idsuppressWarnings, true );
        var idreverse = stringIDToTypeID( "reverse" );
        desc228.putBoolean( idreverse, true );
        var idselection = stringIDToTypeID( "selection" );
        var idpdfSelection = stringIDToTypeID( "pdfSelection" );
        var idimage = stringIDToTypeID( "image" );
        desc228.putEnumerated( idselection, idpdfSelection, idimage );
        var idpageNumber = stringIDToTypeID( "pageNumber" );
        desc228.putInteger( idpageNumber, 1 ); // The image to extract
    var idPDFGenericFormat = stringIDToTypeID( "PDFGenericFormat" );
    desc227.putObject( idas, idPDFGenericFormat, desc228 );
    var idnull = stringIDToTypeID( "null" );
    desc227.putPath( idnull, new File( "~/Desktop/my-pdf-file.pdf" ) ); // The path to the file
executeAction( idopen, desc227, DialogModes.NO );

However, it isn't clear to me how to select multiple images in one go, apart from incrementing the (idpageNumber). It also isn't clear to me how to check how many images one would need to increment over to extract ALL the images.

Thank. It's perfect.

I modify this to open and to save every images as tiff. And a control before open every images (some "pages" aren't images and code stop without this.) The code could perhaps be done better. But it's good enough for me. I'll share it if anyone ever needs an approach like this. I couldn't get the number of images via a formula.

P.s. I don't speak English very well. Sorry for my mistakes.

You're welcome, I extended your code to suit my work.
