PDF Page Count

Greetings,

Is there anyway to retrieve the page count of a PDF file when loaded?

Thanks,
Mike

I'm not aware of any API call that returns that information.

Some people claim that you can use a hack to get the current page in the PDF document :

If that's true, perhaps you can simulate some key presses with DevTool methods to open the last page and then get the page number.

There seems to be some solution for this if you use JavaScript :

Thanks Salvadordf,

You would think for something so basic they would expose it.
