New feature: save pdf info #10

Closed wallace7souza closed 8 years ago

wallace7souza commented 8 years ago

Hi guys! Is there a way to save pdf info? In my scenario, i can't read console output, even passing ' > out.txt' i'm not able to save. My ideia is to use something on CLI like this: cpdf.exe -info my.pdf -o "c:/temp/info.txt" Any help is welcome!

What exactly is preventing you from capturing the console output? If you're using cpdf via a script, there will be a method to capture the output, I'm sure.

I'm developing a firefox addon, for some restrition, outputs from shell commands are not capturing otherwise using '> out.txt' but for some reason is not working =/

I found a solution. The right way to use and get output from process is this.
