>Offhand, is it possible to create a new PDF document from within a script?
Not anywhere that I can find.
It appears that Acrobat is not in the document "creation" business, but
simply allows you to open and quasi-edit PDF files generated by the
distiller app or the PDF driver from another app.
I am no expert on scripting Acrobat whatsoever, but I did manage to set up a
folder action that leverages "batch processing", saving PDFs as JPEG files.
On multipage PDFs it will save each page individually. You might be able to
programmatically break the document into it's individual pages and
immediately delete all but the page you were after. Let me know if you are
interested and maybe we can exchange code, I'd love to see other's work on
cracking the Acrobat scripting conundrum.
