Windows equivalent for Unix's pdfinfo

Question

Is there a Windows equivalent for Unix's pdfinfo? I need to get the page count of a PDF document in PHP. I tried with ImageMagick 'identify' command, but seems it is not very efficient.

Answer 1

Precompiled binaries are available at http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/download.html

Answer 2

Try cpdf

cpdf.exe -pages file.pdf

which will print the number of pages to standard output. It should be pretty fast.
