Getting the info out of the images of a PDF
Hey all,
We are an independent newspaper and I am trying to come up with a way to do some in house image tracking. We save the PostScripts of output every day and I was wondering that if I turned them into PDF's would there be some way to find out what either the filename of an image is or the title inside of the image is.
For example. I downloaded and converted the PS into a PDF on my desktop. Opened the new PDF and got image properties from an image. It shows me the title of the image. i go to "Export All Images" inside Acrobat 6 (on a mac) and export all the images. I then open the image in Photoshop CS 2 and try getting the info from them, not there. I tried importing the images directly into PS CS2 and still, no image info is carried over.
Does anybody know of a way to get the image info (specifically title) as a batch process? Ultimately I would a want to get it in a text file / list format so I could script some comparison scripts to see which images are actually used.
Any help in getting this initial info is appreciated!
Chris
