Hello all, I worked it out. I actually vi several acrobat file to see the actual code inside. This is my script after my study. This is certainly not the best method, but it works for me. Somebody may be interested it using or improve this. Please tell me if you guys got a better method: <?php $string = file_get_contents($filename); $start = strpos($string, "<dc:title>") + 10; $length = strpos(substr($string, $start), '</dc:title>'); if ($length) { $title = strip_tags(substr($string, $start, $length)); } ?> Cheers, Koala On 9/8/06, Shu Hung (Koala) <koalay@gmail.com> wrote:
Hello, I know PDF files stores a "Title" somewhere. I'm not sure if it is at meta data or elsewhere. Does anyone have any method to get this "Title" out? Thanks Koala Yeung
