Change PDF page size from the command line

[tuanpdf]

Hi support,

I am interested to apply pdf page size with command line.  Do we have command line available for this option?

Thanks

Hello,

yes, with the PDF24 Toolbox of PDF24 Creator (Windows). The tool Change PDF page size can be run from the command line with a job file:

1. Create a job file, e.g. C:\Data\job.json (write the backslashes in paths twice):

{ "action": "changePdfPageSize", "pageSize": "A4", "pageOrientation": "auto", "fileInfos": [ { "file": "C:\\Data\\test.pdf", "name": "test.pdf" } ] }

pageSize can be A0 to A6, letter, legal or your own size like 210x297mm or 8.5x11inch. pageOrientation can be auto, portrait or landscape.

1. Run the job:

"C:\Program Files\PDF24\pdf24-Toolbox.exe" -processJob C:\Data\job.json C:\Data\result.json

1. In result.json you then find the new PDF under outputFiles (file = path in the temp folder %TEMP%\PDF24, name = intended file name). Copy this file to the folder you want.

Description of -processJob: https://creator.pdf24.org/manual/11/#912-process-a-job

Without the command line, the tool is also online: https://tools.pdf24.org/en/change-pdf-page-size
