I think that I'll find a workaround for this problem, but I post details of a
problem I found the the selectpages method of the reader object. My app has
been using this method for a while with no problems, either to extract
particular pages from a source PDF [e.g. selectpages("1-2, 4-5, 9")] or to
re-order its pages [e.g. selectpages("8-9, 4-5, 1")]. Someone tried
something different where they tried to create duplicates of a page. It
failed and I've investigated. The command came through something like
selectpages("1-2, 1-2, 1-2, 9"), which I thought would select 7 pages. It
doesn't; instead it selects 3 pages (1, 2, 9) and the repeated mentions of
"1-2" get ignored. I was playing round and also found that ("1-2, 2-3, 3-4,
4-5") gives only 5 pages, as does "1-3, 2-4, 3-5"). Is this deliberate? I'll
use a pdfcopy to deal with the problem but I thought that maybe this
behaviour wasn't intended for the selectpages method.
