pdfdetach(1) General Commands Manual pdfdetach(1)
NAME
pdfdetach - Portable Document Format (PDF) document embedded file
extractor (version 4.04)
SYNOPSIS
pdfdetach [options] [PDF-file]
DESCRIPTION
Pdfdetach lists or extracts embedded files (attachments) from a Porta-
ble Document Format (PDF) file.
CONFIGURATION FILE
Pdfdetach reads a configuration file at startup. It first tries to
find the user's private config file, ~/.xpdfrc. If that doesn't exist,
it looks for a system-wide config file, typically /etc/xpdfrc (but this
location can be changed when pdfinfo is built). See the xpdfrc(5) man
page for details.
OPTIONS
Some of the following options can be set with configuration file com-
mands. These are listed in square brackets with the description of the
corresponding command line option.
-list List all of the embedded files in the PDF file. File names are
converted to the text encoding specified by the "-enc" switch.
-save number
Save the specified embedded file. By default, this uses the
file name associated with the embedded file (as printed by the
"-list" switch); the file name can be changed with the "-o"
switch.
-saveall
Save all of the embedded files. This uses the file names asso-
ciated with the embedded files (as printed by the "-list"
switch). By default, the files are saved in the current direc-
tory; this can be changed with the "-o" switch.
-o path
Set the file name used when saving an embedded file with the
"-save" switch, or the directory used by "-saveall".
-enc encoding-name
Sets the encoding to use for text output (embedded file names).
The encoding-name must be defined with the unicodeMap command
(see xpdfrc(5)). This defaults to "Latin1" (which is a built-in
encoding). [config file: textEncoding]
-opw password
Specify the owner password for the PDF file. Providing this
will bypass all security restrictions.
-upw password
Specify the user password for the PDF file.
-cfg config-file
Read config-file in place of ~/.xpdfrc or the system-wide config
file.
-v Print copyright and version information.
-h Print usage information. (-help and --help are equivalent.)
EXIT CODES
The Xpdf tools use the following exit codes:
0 No error.
1 Error opening a PDF file.
2 Error opening an output file.
3 Error related to PDF permissions.
99 Other error.
