agreed, this one would be extremely helpful
Nope. sorry guys.
Padding with zeros makes programmatically accessing pages problematic. I shouldn't have to know how many total pages are in a document to know where the first page lives.
If you're concerned about the human aesthetics of using ls
or what not, linuxes have a -v
option:
~/test$ ls -l
total 0

When extracting pages as images from a document (extract_images) it would be useful if the appended page numbers had leading zeros so they are ordered automatically in the output directory.
If you have more than 9 pages ordering gets lost:
filename_1 filename_10 filename_11 filename_2 etc…
but with leading zeros:
filename_01 filename_02 …
Just a small thing that would help with working with the files after extraction
