[SOLVED] PDFTK command arguments issue

Hi all,

Given the PDFTK command line utility, this line works fine in terminal :

pdftk "/Users/sunsikim/Desktop/toto.PDF cat 1-2 output /Users/sunsikim/Desktop/totoP1-2.pdf"

Once I try to use it through Switch Execute Command, I can't get it to work

Command : pdftk

Arguments : "/Users/sunsikim/Desktop/toto.PDF" cat 1-2 output "/Users/sunsikim/Desktop/totoP1-2.pdf"

t's just a copy/paste plus the double quotes for the paths. I am just expecting to get the output pdf but none are created. I am conscious here that it won't output the file in my connection. I am ok with that right now.

For starters, I just wish that the PDFTK command just works.

Anyone has ever used PDFTK with Switch ? Does anyone see what I am doing wrong here ?

Thanks in advance for your hints.

Loic

I had the same issue and solved like this:

Exetution Mode: Concurrent

Comand or path: the path for the PDFTK

Arguments: "%1" output "%2" owner_pw password

Output: File at path

Copy input Job: yes

Output extension: Automatic

Fail exit code is: Disregard exit code

Don't forget the quotes in the argument "%1" and "%2"
