Title: | A Toolkit for PDF Files |
---|---|
Description: | Provides functions to manipulate PDF files: fill out PDF forms; merge multiple PDF files into one; remove selected pages from a file; rename multiple files in a directory; rotate entire pdf document; rotate selected pages of a pdf file; Select pages from a file; splits single input PDF document into individual pages; splits single input PDF document into parts from given points. |

Combine multiple PDF files by delimiting the sequences of pages in each file.
combine_pdf(vec_input, output = "output.pdf", start_pages = NA, end_pages = NA)
combine_pdf(vec_input, output = "output.pdf", start_pages = NA, end_pages = NA)
vec_input |
Vector with paths of PDF files to be combined. |
output |
PDF file path result of the combination. |
start_pages |
Vector with the initial pages of each file. If |
end_pages |
Vector with the final pages of each file. If |
In the path informed in output
, the PDF file resulting from the combination
of multiple files passed to vec_output
will be saved.

If the toolkit Pdftk is available in the system, it will be called to get form fields from a pdf file.
See the reference for detailed usage of pdftk
.
get_fields( input_filepath = NULL, convert_field_names = FALSE, encoding_warning = TRUE )
get_fields( input_filepath = NULL, convert_field_names = FALSE, encoding_warning = TRUE )
input_filepath |
the path of the input PDF file. The default is set to NULL. IF NULL, it prompt the user to select the folder interactively. |
convert_field_names |
By default |
encoding_warning |
If field names include strings that look like plain text UTF-8
codes, the function will return a warning by default, suggesting setting |
A list of fields. With type, name and value components. To use with
set_fields
edit the value element of the fields you want to
modify. If the field of type "button", the value will be a factor. In this
case the factor levels describe the possible values for the field. For
example for a checkbox the typical level names would be "Off" and "Yes",
corresponding to non checked and checked states respectively.
