%[page] not working when exporting PDF

Post by wilson85 »

I'm using the 'Export PDF to Images' tool in PDF-Tools version 9.2 build 358.0.

I'm trying to export a multipage PDF to separate images, however the page number doesn't show for the filenames (it stays at page 1 for every page), resulting in a single image file labelled at page 1 containing the last page of the PDF.
I've used the many times using previous versions with no problem, it seems to be a recent issue.

Some of the relevant options:-
Grouping Mode: Each image to a separate file
Filename: %[FileName]_%[Page]
When file already exists: Overwrite with a new file

Any ideas?

Hello wilson85,

Welcome to our forums!
We released build 359 earlier this week - so can you please update to this and let us know if the issue is still present in it?

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello wilson85,

Can you please export your custom tool, and include that here in this topic so that we can try and run the same on our end?
(Please put it inside an archive or the forums won't accept the attachment)

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello, wilson85

I have managed to reproduce this with your attached tool, and I have reported it to our dev team. I also created the following ticket to track the progress of this. While internal only, you can ask us here for updates in the future.
