PDF Automation

[jaredd69582483]

I am trying to automate multiple steps:

Step 1: Extract Pages from a Dynamically Generated PDF

Step 2: Open pages one at a time

Step 3: Search for and copy first two words on the page (LAST NAME, FIRST NAME)

Step 4: Rename file with "Date"_"LAST NAME, FIRST NAME"

I looked into other options and saw that Adobe Bridge has a batch renaming feature.

But it can only pull from metadata, so if I could automate the "LAST NAME, FIRST NAME" being copied into the Keywords Metadata that option would work.

Any help on this would be appreciated

If the pages are consistent then it can be done using Acrobat JavaScript, but it would require the development of a custom-made script that will iterate over the words in each page, looking for the relevant text and then extract the pages using the pattern you specified. It's not a simple task for a novice in Acrobat JS.
