Oh, btw, I use PHP ftp function to upload the file, but there is no information in $_FILES to tell me the total page for Word or PDF file. Really appreciated your time and help! Thank you very much!

And about Word documents (.doc): Word calculates the amount of pages at 'parsetime'. Word documents are just RTF files, and they don't describe the amount of pages in the files. So it's really tricky to make a script that counts the pages in Word documents, as you would have to make an RTF parser. :/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
