@XnTriq –- pdfimages.exe with the -list option looks like an interesting utility albeit command line, but could you please confirm where you where you were able to download it?

Thanks XnTriq: avast doesn't like pdfinfo.exe for some reason, is it safe to assume it's a false positive?

Edit:

Also the listing doesn't include the -list option although I downloaded it from the http://blog.alivate.com.au/wp-content/u ... .51_x86.7z link above?? Could there be any connection with that incorrect .7z extension, possibly?? It's not my day!

Have you tried flushing your web browser's cache before downloading the archive again?

Posted: **Fri Feb 24, 2017 7:36 am**

@cday
Not shure if I can help you and understand your problem:
But should pdfinfo.exe provide a -list option? -> pdfimages.exe has a -list option.
Were you trying to use the wrong exe?

Posted: **Fri Feb 24, 2017 9:06 am**

@XnTriq @IxenPDF :

I've tried again and don't understand the problem:

I downloaded the .7z from this link http://blog.alivate.com.au/wp-content/u ... .51_x86.7z in XnTriq's earlier post;

I used Opera, as I don't know how to clear the Firefox cache

;

I'm not really into checking checksums, so that would use more time;

I'm extracting using 7-Zip 'Extract Here' [without changing the download extension to .zip first, this time];

I'm testing in a batch file as that's how I usually work;

I'm no longer getting the avast security warning;

I get this result:

Press any key to continue . . .

So a different result...

It does look as if I might have the wrong download, but that is the suggested link, isn't it?

No doubt there's a very simple explanation, and it probably isn't that the hosted file has been corrupted since you downloaded it...

I'd like to find the solution, but it's not that important really, and I can't spend too much time on it at the moment.

It's pdfimages.exe, not pdfinfo.exe

Edit regarding checksums: 7-Zip → File → CRC → * → Ctrl+C
