Document manipulation, Extraction, Page manipulation

Description

  RangeList As String) As Long

DLL

int DPLExtractFilePages(int InstanceID, wchar_t * InputFileName, wchar_t * Password,
  wchar_t * OutputFileName, wchar_t * RangeList)

Parameters

InputFileName	The path and name of the document that contains the pages to extract.
Password	The password to use when opening the document
OutputFileName	The path and name of the document to create containing the extracted pages.
RangeList	The pages to extract, for example "10,15,18-20,25-35". Invalid characters will be ignored. Reversed page ranges such as "5-1" will be accepted. Duplicate page numbers will be accepted but if a change is made to such a page the same changes will appear on the duplicate pages. The list of pages will not be sorted so the resulting document will have the pages in the specified order.

Return values

0	The pages could not be extracted. Use the LastErrorCode function to determine the cause of the failure.
1	The pages were extracted successfully
