PDF/Extract version 2.06 ======================== PDF Extract is a group of methods that allow the user to quickly grab pages as a new PDF document from a pre-existing multi page PDF document. With PDF::Extract a new PDF document can be. assigned to a scalar variable with getPDFExtract. saved to disk with savePDFExtract. printed to STDOUT as a PDF web document with servePDFExtract. cached and served for a faster PDF web document service with fastServePDFExtract. These four main methods can be called with or without arguments. The methods will not work unless they know the location of the original PDF document and the pages to extract. There are no default values. As little as 3 lines of code can serve a dynamic PDF web document use PDF::Extract; $pdf = new PDF::Extract( PDFDoc =>"/docs/my.pdf", PDFPages =>"1-3 7" ) ; $pdf->servePDFExtract; This module's home page is at http://www.lgmedia.com.au/PDF/Extract.asp Forum for users and developers http://www.lgmedia.com.au/PDF/Forum INSTALLATION To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install DEPENDENCIES There are no dependencies HISTORY version 3.01 Major upgrade.
