how do I export a specific page out of an image

Workflow SDK Version 10 How To

Updated May 7, 2019

asked on May 6, 2019

I have some multi-page tiff images that I need to reprint when the users are finished with them. To save resources the users are removing the blank pages. I want to use a workflow to remove those blank pages so the users can work more efficiently. What is the best way to do that?

I can use SQL to get the specific pages of that image that have a txt_size of 0 but I can not find an activity that will delete a specific page from an image or move that page to a new entry to be deleted.

Thanks!

Move Page activity does allow tokens in its oage range property.

For the record though, txt_size = 0 is not a guarantee that the page is blank. If the image was a picture or a drawing or similar that does not have anything to produce text, the page can still end up with an empty text file.

These image are all from a scanning department so there will never be any pictures or images associated with them.

My workflow designer won't allow me to select a variable for Page Number.

You can type in the token and it will resolve when the workflow runs.
