Macro to Get Page Count of PDF Files
There's some VBA code posted on this site,
Press ALT + F11 from Excel in order to enter Visual Basic. Right click on a Module and select Insert . . . Module . Then paste the below code in. [You may want to copy the code directly from the mrexcel.com, as the Wix text editor may alter the formatting of the code so it doesn't work.]
On the line beginning My Path = , enter the path to the directory containing the PDFs that you need page counts for.
Press the play button and the macro will generate a list of the file names in column A and their page totals in column B.
Thanks to Haluk for posting this code!
