Get PDF Page Count

[wsnyder]

Hi all,

Trying to get page count for all pdf files.
My current code at the bottom.
Error here :

Dim Ac_Fi As Acrobat.AcroPDDoc

Error message:

Compile error:
User-defined type not defined

I set references to all of these libraries I see available that appear to be Adobe related libraries:

• Acrobat Access 3.0 Type Library
• Adobe Acrobat Browser Control Type Library 1.0
• AcroBrokerLib

I only have Adobe Acrobat Reader DC and Able2Extract from InvestInTech.

Or do you have other suggestions? I saw some threads suggesting to use RexEx to read the file and parse to get the page count, however I don't think that will give good results for my files due to mix of digital and scanned files.

thanks
